You can add you hotels, flights, car rental, activities and transfers to your liking. The itinerary is just a suggestion based on our experience.

DAY 1

Day 1 :

Arrive in LA or Sacramento and pick up your car. Head into the mountains to Yosemite National Park. You’ll have a few options of places to stay to cater to your budget. Check in and get settled before venturing out to explore the views of Half Dome and El Capitan. Be sure to make your way to the valley floor meadows in the evening to see the deer come out to graze.

DAY 2

Day 2 :

Lots of options today but we recommend hiking the Mist Trail, the Mirror Lake hike, seeing lower Yosemite Falls and riding bikes around the valley. Don’t forget to visit the Ansel Adams museum and if you’re feeling really adventurous do the full day hike to the top of Half Dome. You’ll need tickets for this so let us know and we can arrange in getting them if they are available. Have a nice diner at the Awahnee Hotel if you’re staying in Yosemite valley. The hotel is stunning.

DAY 3

Day 3 :

Wake up early and hit the road. You’ll be taking a long beautiful drive up the coast to Mendocino. Upon arrival at your hotel maybe spend some time relaxing before watching the sunset while sitting by the fire pit overlooking the ocean.

DAY 4

Day 4 :

Wake up early for a stunning drive down the coast to San Fransisco. There’s lots of places to stop along the way to explore, visit and shop. We found some hidden gems in this area to wine taste. When you arrive in San Fransisco check into the hotel. You can either chill at the hotel or venture out and enjoy the city. Let us know if you want to dine at one of the Michelin rated restaurants and we can see about getting you a reservation.(usually need to book this months in advance)
