    I like to being able to see both the national parks and some cities. They appreciated that it was the best of California and not just one section. However, I think it would’ve been nice to spend a little more time in the cities as it seemed like we didn’t get enough of time there. There’s only one thing I really didn’t like, which was the fact that we had to buy all of our lunches, with the exception of the two that were provided. Did with another company all the meals were provided for. Which means we paid for them upfront, didn’t have to worry about buying them every day.

    A tour that starts fast-paced, filled with breathtaking views of nature, and ends with a chilled out west coast cali vibe! 10/10

    Just perfect! I got to know so many nice people and doing a trip like this together was a perfect opportunity. The best way to travel, especially as a solo traveler, even if you?re underaged and everything is already organised. The National Parks were just amazing so far, I really enjoyed it!
