Itinerary

Fly to San Francisco
Day 1-9

Lake Tahoe Ski

You will start your Californian adventure on the cosmopolitan ski slopes of Lake Tahoe, after driving up from San Francisco or Reno Airports you will be staying in the luxurious village of Northstar. Northstar features fantastic mid-mountain skiing through the trees as well as stunning views across the cobalt blue north side of the lake. If you like cruising the groomed pistes and tree runs then Northstar is perfect for those leisurely or intermediate skiers. If you are looking for more challenging terrain then the Lake is home to 14 ski resorts, all within driving distance. This is skiing American style, where you can drive to different resorts, seeking out the best conditions each day and enjoying the varied après at night.

Accommodation: The Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe Ski ( 8 nights )
Day 9-12

Napa Valley

After 7 days of skiing you will hit the road to continue your California adventure in the stunning region of Napa Valley. Think of Napa and the first thing that comes to mind is wine. However, not only is this little part of California producing wines to rival that of the old world, it also has a lot of surprises up its sleeve. The scenery is spectacular; the towns are quaint and eclectic; the standard of restaurants is phenomenal, and it oozes Californian sophistication. Wine tasting will be at top of your check list, and we can organise tours to the most notable wine makers or smaller, off-the-beaten track wineries in the valley and Sonoma. Why not leave your car behind and cycle between each one? Or see the entire valley from a hot air balloon?

Accommodation: Auberge du Soleil ( 3 nights )
Day 12-14

San Francisco

The next and final part of your trip takes you to the vibrant city of San Francisco. The California gold rush of 1849 turned San Francisco from a small Spanish colony into the largest city on the West coast. And after being nearly completely destroyed by the earthquake of 1906, it became the city it is today. Famous for being the birth place of free love, it retains its liberal air and is one of the world’s most famous cities, instantly recognisable in any picture. San Francisco is a city made for exploring with an array of must do experiences, including great restaurants, historic sites and buzzing markets. Be sure to take a ferry ride out to the island of Alcatraz to the see the notorious prison. Cycle across the Golden Gate Bridge and have lunch in Sausalito whilst taking in the extraordinary views of the San Francisco skyline. With two nights in the city you will have time to see the best spots of the city. 

Accommodation: The St. Regis San Francisco ( 2 nights )
