About the trip

This touring holiday sets off from Los Angeles, with a morning meet-up and a brief look around the city's well-known hotspots. From there, the journey curves north along the Pacific Coast Highway, offering hours to appreciate the coast's shape and light. Rest time in Avila gives a chance to stretch legs before the landscape turns inward.

The heart of the tour is Yosemite National Park, where evenings are spent camping with tents fitted with insect nets and roll-out mattresses. Days start fresh here, with hikes taking in waterfalls such as Vernal and Nevada Falls, the towering sequoias, and viewpoints like Lembert Dome near Tuolumne Meadows. A drive over Tioga Pass and brief visits to Tenaya and Mono Lakes underline the variety of this mountain setting.

Moving eastwards brings a sharp contrast with a visit to the heat of Death Valley's vast desertscape before the final stop in Las Vegas, where the night lights offer a different kind of wilderness. The trip is led by a Chief Experience Officer who wears several hats, from driver to cook, with an emphasis on shared effort and community throughout the road trip's diverse environments.
