The Ultimate California Road Trip: A Step by Step Itinerary

My California road trip was one of the most memorable adventures I’ve had to date. One moment I was chillin’ and eating tacos in San Diego, the next marvelling at the jaw-dropping beauty of Yosemite National Park.

There were coastal hikes skirting giant seal colonies, wine-drenched days in Sonoma, all punctuated with classic Californian sights like the Golden Gate Bridge.

In short, if you’re not bouncing around in excitement at the prospect of your upcoming road trip, I’m pretty sure you will be after this. It’s time to explore. Enough of the chat. It’s time to explore.
