California Holidays

Covering Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Palm Springs and the glorious Pacific Coast Highway, the golden state of California never disappoints. In fact it's hard to imagine a more diverse and fascinating state, and it’s this diversity that makes it the perfect holiday choice.

Wake up to waves lapping the shore and then find yourself halfway up a mountain taking in stunning alpine views by the afternoon. And don't forget all the amazing places and sights that come to life, from the Golden Gate Bridge to Hollywood Boulevard with a few quaint seaside towns thrown in along the way.

Whether you’re travelling as a couple or a family, California offers something for everyone. Take a look through our sample itineraries for coastal cool road trips, nostalgic train journeys and escorted tours. Must-see places on your California holiday include:

Los Angeles

From seeing the sights of Hollywood to checking out Universal Studios, Los Angeles has a lot to offer. Whether you’re heading there for the beach vibes of Santa Monica and Malibu, the glitz and glam of Hollywood or the fabulous film studios, make sure you get the location of your hotel spot on - it’s a spread out city and you want to be in the right place.

San Francisco

If you’re taking the California coastal drive (which you really should), start in San Francisco and spend a few days there before you leave. You won’t need a car in the city, so explore on foot and take in the unique personality of each neighbourhood.
You can also head to Napa Valley from San Francisco, where you can enjoy wine tasting with a guided tour or on the wine train.

San Diego

San Diego is much more than a beach destination and it has a lot to offer, including many key attractions. Stay in the downtown quarter where much of what you’ll want to see and do is within walking distance, or stay along the water for a beautiful sea view.

Whilst you’re there you can visit the San Diego Zoo, enjoy a family day out at Legoland, take a bike tour and practice your surfing skills.

Palm Springs

Giving you the best of both worlds, Palm Springs offers stunning desert views, with everything you might want from a city. Here you can shop until you drop, enjoy a round of golf, relax at the spa and stay in your choice of incredible hotels.
Not forgetting of course, the desert hot springs where you can enjoy a soak in natural hot mineral water.

The Pacific Coast Highway - Route 1

One our most popular holidays is the scenic drive down the Pacific Coast Highway from San Francisco to L.A. Roof down, the wind in your hair, shades on and The Beach Boys on the radio...isn't that living the California dream? Call in to Monterey and Carmel - maybe catch a glimpse of former mayor, Clint Eastwood!

The National Parks

Yosemite, Death Valley and Joshua Tree are just some of California’s incredible national parks, and if you’re heading to the golden state you must take the time to see the natural beauty they behold. Whilst Yosemite is a favourite of ours, there’s many more on offer depending on what you’re looking for, such as hiking, canyons, wilderness, lakes and more.

Our very own resident American - Theresa, offers a bit of insight when it comes to planning the perfect California holiday.

Book with Bon Voyage and you'll benefit from our decades of tailor-made California holiday planning experience. We’ve explored every nook and cranny of this fabulous state and we’re here to help you make the most of your Californian adventure. Get in touch to start planning your dream trip.

Where you stay is the heart of your holiday. Location reigns supreme but do you prefer resort facilities or unique and boutique? Historic and old world or modern and shiny?

We aim to present choices across the spectrum but there are many hundreds of places to stay and not room to feature them all. Do speak to your Bon Voyage travel consultant and click the video for our take on this important topic.

We would rate the Bellagio as one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. Fabulous, glitzy, exciting. We loved having breakfast at the poolside café... one of our best experiences ever. If it hadn't been for you we wouldn't have had the suite or cabana and we loved them. We both agreed that the hotel was the best for us and you had suggested that so well done!
