STAY AT THE NATIONAL PARK ENTRANCE A Yacht, A Champagne Toast & You
San Diego boasts a perfect year-round climate, cradles the ocean with golden-sand beaches, and is home to one of the most beautiful natural harbors in the world. The best way to experience the city’s waterfront treasures is on a dinner cruise aboard Tauck’s private yacht, glass of champagne in hand, included during your two-night stay.
TENAYA LODGE AT YOSEMITE Yosemite Rock Stars
First protected in 1864, Yosemite National Park is best known for its waterfalls, but here you will also find glacially polished granite giants, with names like Half Dome and El Capitan, rock stars you will see during your open-air tram ride with a national park guide.
Gold Coast Gems
With coastal landscapes unchanged since the arrival of the Spanish more than 400 years ago, the wild country you will see as you drive along Big Sur intimidates with vertical mountains that kiss the sea and sky, inspires with giant redwoods that tower in ancient forests and invigorates with views of bathing beauties, from surfers to otters, sea lions and more, basking on the beaches below.
Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite, opening its doors in 1990, sits at an elevation of 5,288 feet at Yosemite’s soaring South Gate and owes its name to legendary Chief Tenaya of the “Ahwahneechee” people, who were among the first humans to live in the Yosemite Valley. Legend says that the chief was repeatedly drawn to Half Dome and enthralled with the ethereal beauty of the valley. Chances are you will be too as you experience an authentic sense of alpine serenity amidst one of the most beautiful national parks in America.
