Itinerary Tour
Days 1-2: Sonoma Wine Country
Arrive into San Francisco International Airport and drive the 65 miles to Sonoma. Spend two nights in Sonoma, steps from the historic Sonoma Plaza. Take advantage of delicious eateries and tasting rooms, plus you’ll set out on a wine tasting tour to experience some of the area’s 17 appellations and over 400 wineries. After a delicious day, get some rest because tomorrow you drive to Yosemite!
Days 3-4: Yosemite National Park
Today, you’ll head inland to the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and photographer Ansel Adams’ favorite, Yosemite National Park. Get off on the right foot with a privately guided hike. Your naturalist guide will bring the surrounding landscape alive as they teach you about the park’s geology, history, and wildlife.
Days 5-6: Yosemite National Park
Now it’s time to migrate from the western part of the park down to your lodge for the next two nights, near Yosemite’s southern entrance. On the drive through the park, spend time exploring the waterfalls, meadows, forests, granite cliffs, and iconic vistas in Yosemite. You’ll cap off your Yosemite visit with another immersive guided hike walking among ancient giant sequoias.
Days 7-8: Carmel-by-the-Sea
Your next stop is Carmel-by-the-Sea, a picturesque town overlooking the sparkling Pacific Ocean. This charming town on the beach has it all: scenery, trails, historic sites, galleries, and restaurants. After your first night in your charming boutique hotel, it’s time for a unique adventure. Spend the morning tide-pooling with a marine biologist followed by a behind-the-scenes Monterey Bay Aquarium visit.
Days 9-10: Departures Home from San Francisco
It’s time to return to where we started – the City by the Bay. We recommend taking the iconic California Highway 1 for a scenic and unforgettable drive. Once there, you’ll head out on a half-day guided bike tour to hit some of the city’s beautiful highlights. After a comfortable night’s rest, make your way to San Francisco International for departures home.
