Itinerary
Welcome to California! We'll kick things off this afternoon when you meet up with your new travel crew & head out for a walking tour of Union Square, North Beach & then into Chinatown for a family-style meal on your first night together. (D) Stay: Hotel Zephyr (or similar)
This morning we'll jump on public transport & head to the Mission District to cast our eyes on the fantastic street art. After, the day is yours to explore this amazing city. Head up to “the Haight” to check out its hippie past and hipster present, shop in Union Square or head to Lombard St into North Beach. Tonight opt in for sunset sailing under the Golden Gate.
Leaving on a jet plane this morning, we'll fly to PDX, a.k.a Portland. When we land, we're off to check out the Hipster Capital on a city tour. First up is lunch in Rose City food park, before dropping in to Powell Books, the Pearl District & Burnside Street. Sweet tooth? We'll munch on Voodoo Doughnuts & sample the famous ice cream from Salt & Straw. (B) Stay: Hotel Rose (or similar)
Time to head out of the city and get some fresh ocean air. A visit to Cannon Beach and picturesque Oregon Coast is the perfect place for it. Take some well deserved time to just chill out and hang with your Contiki crew. This afternoon, you'll head back into town for a night all your own. Might even be time for round 2 of those doughnuts.
Grab your best plaid shirt & Doc Marten boots ‘cos we're headed to Seattle, home to Amazon, Starbucks & grunge music. We'll jump on a train to get you really feeling like a local. Once you've arrived, it's time to get oriented in the Emerald City. It's time to explore the local flavours. Restaurants around here pride themselves on fresh local produce and coffee here is a religion. We'll take an included Caffe Vita roasting experience, learning about the process from bean to cup in this invigorating drink. (B) Stay: Hotel Five (or similar)
Today is your chance to walk in the footsteps of a real Seattleite, as our local guide teach you how to shop smart at the Public Market & take the perfect Instagram photo of the ‘gum wall'. Tonight, we take a sunset sail in the Puget Sound & reflect on our crazy times in the Pacific Northwest. (B/D)
Our adventures in the Pacific Northwest have come to an end! Don't forget to swap deets & start planning the reunion tour…East Coast next time? (B)
