When we talk about California destinations, we
don't stop at the state boundaries. We look at it
from a local's perspective: As California locals,
where do we go to enjoy ourselves?
Well, in addition to a diverse set of destinations
within the California border, we also frequent the
states of Oregon, Arizona and Nevada. Attractions
like Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon and the Ashland
Shakespeare Festival are just a few of the draws
that bring Californians over the border on a regular
basis.
Below is a breakdown of the various regions to which
we're happy to welcome our clients. |
| |
| The
California Redwood Coast |
| The Redwood Coast stretches over 400 miles of
rugged coastline from San Francisco to primeval
redwood forests at the border with Oregon. Inland
you'll find lush vineyards and quaint villages filled
with antique shops. Three national parks and numerous
state parks provide unlimited opportunities for
hiking, camping and fishing. |
| |
| The
San Francisco Bay Area |
| From bustling cosmopolitan cities to quiet coastal
retreats, the San Francisco Bay Area is incomparable.
First-class attractions, celebrated wineries, cultural
diversity, remarkable skylines and breathtaking
views make this region one of the worlds most popular
destinations. |
| |
| The
California Central Coast |
| A tranquil expanse between Los Angeles and San
Francisco, the romantic fairytale-like Central Coast
is often called California's Middle Kingdom. Dramatic
seascapes and coastal resorts, together with the
pastoral atmosphere of its inland agricultural communities,
make this region an idyllic destination. |
| |
| The
California South Coast |
A mix of mountains and beaches, fantasy and excitement,
the South Coast is probably the most famous region
in California. Hollywood, Disneyland, Malibu, Capistrano,
San Diego and Beverly Hills are household names
around the world. And yet, the area has a much richer
array of experiences to offer than commonly understood.
With a temperate climate, deep sea harbors, sandy
beaches, soaring mountains, and a host of luxurious
resorts as mainstay attractions, the South Coast
is a prime destination for golfers, deep-sea fishing
enthusiasts, whale watchers, skiers, wine connoisseurs,
and gourmet diners alike. |
| |
| The
California Desert |
| California deserts are a study in contrasts: soft
sand dunes and deeply eroded cliffs, golden poppies
and spiny cacti, creeping tortoises and soaring
eagles, and snowcapped mountains. The Deserts' silent
and austere beauty, studded with glittering yet
relaxing resort cities, offers the ideal spot for
re-energizing your senses. |
| |
| The
High Sierra |
| The incomparable Sierra Nevada is the backbone
of this region. Natural attractions stagger the
imagination — from emerald-hued Lake Tahoe,
to sparkling Mammoth Lakes and towering Mt. Whitney.
With three of the nations most treasured national
parks, the High Sierra is truly an expression of
American wilderness. |
| |
| The
California Gold Country |
| This region offers remnants of its wild days when
the 1849 Gold Rush triggered the largest human migration
ever known. Explore Sacramento, the state capitol,
and follow the miners' saga along historic Highway
49. Pastoral towns, recreational and cultural activities,
this region is filled with "golden" opportunities.
|
| |
| The
Shasta Cascade |
The Shasta Cascade is one of the country's most
beautiful and unspoiled regions. Its towering mountains,
lush forests, crystal clear lakes and thundering
waterfalls provide awe-inspiring views.
Whether you seek high adventure on a rugged peak
or a leisurely weekend on a houseboat, Shasta Cascade
is an outdoor lover's paradise. |
| |
| The
Central Valley |
One of the most productive farming areas in the
world, the Central Valley is dominated by thousands
of square miles of relatively flat agricultural
land that swelters in the summer and gets foggy
during the winter. Most of it is experienced by
the visitor as a transportation corridor to get
to and from California's more alluring venues. .
Nevertheless, even the Central Valley has its jewel.
The Delta — a unique 1,000-mile waterway
fed by 5 major rivers, provides water-enthusiasts
a worthy destination. |
| |
The
Pacific Northwest
(Oregon and Washington) |
| For the lover of coastal scenery, soaring volcanoes,
local brews, colorful oak forests, or Shakespeare,
the Pacific Northwest has much to offer. In part,
a continuation of the California topography, Oregon
and Washington to the north offer a flavor of their
own. |
| |
| Las
Vegas |
| Las Vegas has been transformed over the
past decade beyond it's vice-driven roots, into
an oasis of fantasy and entertainment that must
be experienced to be believed. |
| |
| The
Grand Canyon |
| All superlatives fall flat against the grandeur
of the Grand Canyon. |
