Californian Odyssey

This legendary route offers enriching experiences as you explore the beautifully scenic Californian landscape; you will feel utterly inspired as you take in all the mesmerizing sites which contrast beautifully against each other. From the famous Golden Gate Bridge to the vineyards of Napa Valley and the rugged coastline of the Big Sur, it’s no wonder that Californian road trips pop up on bucket-lists all over the world.

Beginning the drive in the architecturally rich city of San Francisco provides a great opportunity to acclimatise yourself with the elegant lifestyle of the West Coast. And there’s no better way to begin than with a few nights stay in the Astor Suite at The St. Regis, San Francisco where you’ll experience their legendary butler service; no request too small or unattainable.

While in the city, take a private helicopter tour of the San Francisco Bay Area for unbelievable views of the cityscape including the famous Alcatraz Island and Golden Gate Bridge, as well as Napa, Oakland and Marin County. It’s truly remarkable seeing the city by sky, knowing that you’ll soon be driving through such stunning landscape. Consider opting for a Harley-Davidson motorbike to cruise around the city for the day and endure an amazingly unique expedition; riding along the Golden Gate Bridge you will experience an unbelievable sensitivity to the beauty of the city.
