Overview

The wonder of the Pacific Coast awaits you along stretches of road made famous for its unique natural beauty. Drive through lush Northwest forests near the still active Mount St. Helens volcano and into Mt Rainer National Park where pines stretch out in every direction. The unique evergreen coastline of Oregon will inspire long stops and lazy picnics among some of the most picturesque dunes, shapes by wind and time that weave down the Pacific for miles on end. As you enter California, be prepared to amaze at the sheer grandeur of the Redwoods, the tallest trees on earth that cover over 51,000 acres of protected forest. With fairy-tale communities like Mendocino, and Carmel along the way, there will be plenty of reasons to stop and explore shops, picturesque American streets, and cliff side hiking trails.  Trade the serene coastal highways for the bustling energy of two of California’s great cities, San Francisco and Los Angeles, with options to visit iconic landmarks such as Alcatraz Island, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Santa Monica Pier in each city.

Arrive in Seattle and pick up your rental car. Make time this afternoon to visit the Space Needle or the superb Explore Music Project before enjoying dinner and coffee at one of Seattle’s excellent restaurants.
