Basic Overview

Join us on this six day fly and drive as we visit several more of America’s National Parks.  We will fly into Reno, Nevada and then a short drive to what many believe is the most beautiful lake on earth -Lake Tahoe.  We will have ample time to explore and to shop.  It is then on to Yosemite National Park.  We will have two days to tour this crown jewel: Tuolumne Meadows, El Capitan (a granite cliff that looms over the Yosemite Valley),  Bridalveil Falls,  Half-Dome and Sentinel Dome, ancient Sequoias, abundant wildlife, Merced and Tuolumne Rivers and Mirror Lake.  It is no wonder that the great naturalist John Muir was captivated by Yosemite.  Our journey takes us next to Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Park.  The parks contain the famous General Grant Tree and Redwood Mountain Grove which is the world’s largest remaining natural Giant Sequoia grove in the world(covering 3,100 acres with 15,800 Sequoia trees measuring at least one foot at the base).  Kings Canyon is one of the deepest canyons in the United States.  We will also see the famous Tunnel Log (275 feet tall and 21 feet in diameter) which fell across the road because of natural causes in 1937. It is then on to a much different landscape as we visit Death Valley National Park.  It is America’s hottest and driest national park.  The second lowest point in the Western Hemisphere is Badwater Basin which is 282 feet below sea level.  The park is home to many species of plants and animals.  Daily temperatures of 120 degrees are common.  We conclude our trip by flying out of Las Vegas.  This is a fantastic opportunity to see some of the most unique and inspiring places on earth!
