America the Beautiful - 18 Day Tour September 17 - October 4, 2009 Departure
The most comprehensive tour of the American West offered by any travel company in the world. Featuring visits to Glacier National Park, the rugged Pacific Coast by ship, the Grand Canyon, the Painted Desert and the Petrified Forest, Bryce and Zion National Parks, the Canyonlands and the Arches just to name a few.
Naturally, we have included two great trains ride, aboard the Empire Builder to Glacier National Park and the famed California Zephyr, through the Colorado Rockies offering our guests a visual feast at the start, and end, of this tour. And, for a unique twist on seeing the Pacific Coast, we have included a short 'mini-cruise' from the Pacific Northwest to Southern California aboard the very nice ms Norwegian Pearl, a marvelous way to travel south, with stops in scenic Astoria, Oregon at the mouth of the Columbia River and in San Francisco, en route to Los Angeles. Not only is any holiday that features sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge twice a fine idea, but with the ship in the middle of the tour, guests have the ability to relax with new friends, enjoy breakfast in bed, lunch on deck, dinners in a choice of 11 restaurants and much more, making this a most sensible way to travel to Southern California.
