This fully accommodated adventure provides a taste of the highlights of the western USA, including Yosemite & Grand Canyon, the wonders of Las Vegas, and the splendour of Sedona.

The American West tour starts out with a short San Francisco tour including the famous Golden Gate Bridge. Bidding San Francisco a reluctant farewell, head east through California’s gold country, where in 1848, the finding of a single nugget triggered a stampede of gold-seekers known as the 49’ers. We travel through California’s historic Gold Rush country on
our way to one of the crown jewels of America’s National Park system: Yosemite National Park.

We will enjoy a scenic drive thru Yosemite National Park and visit groves of giant Sequoiasthe largest living things on Earth! There will be ample opportunities for biking, hiking or just taking in the sights of the enormous granite monoliths of the Yosemite- many made famous by Ansel Adams’ beautiful black and white photography.

After a relaxing evening in central California, we arrive to Las Vegas- ready for adventure. Cruise “The Strip” in style with the included limousine tour, then indulge in an all-you-can eat buffet, take in a show or just watch the amazing crowds, neon and attractions that many hotel casinos have to offer. And if that’s not enough, take a helicopter flight over “The Strip” or visit the massive factory outlet shopping malls for a bargain!

Leaving Las Vegas, explore America's premier national park, and discover why it is called the Grand Canyon. Visit the viewpoints, hike the trails, or take a scenic flight for a bird’s-eye view. No matter what you choose to do, you will be amazed by the park’s majesty.

We spend our last night in beautiful Sedona. Situated among the unique sandstone

formations and Coconino National Forest at the south end of Oak Creek Canyon, it is the perfect place to enjoy the walking trails and the distinctive local culture before returning to Los Angeles.
