Sports Groups Escorted ToursssCalifornia is home to the three major port cities of San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego; each of which is itself a world-class destination for leisure and corporate incentive groups and offers travelers additional options to enhance their vacation time. Especially for travelers who have not visited these cities previously, there is much to see and do - and at a minimum additional cost. In addition, extending the time on shore before and after a cruise relieves the stress accompanying the likelihood of flight delays and baggage mishaps.
Perhaps no other city in the United States combines an atmosphere of metropolitan sophistication with its incredible natural views than San Francisco. This world-class city is also renowned for its many neighborhoods which celebrate the ethnic and cultural diversity of Northern California. Whether the ethnic neighborhoods of Chinatown, Japantown, the Mission or North Beach, or the cultural diversity experienced in Haight-Ashbury or the Castro, San Francisco offers tourists experiences not available in any other city.
The Fishermans Wharf attractions, Muir Woods, Sausalito and the Wine Country should not be missed during a pre-cruise visit to San Francisco. Post cruise options include Carmel and Monterey, Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park. Pre or post cruise trips can also be planned in conjunction with the following annual events - Chinese New Year in February, San Francisco Flower & Garden Show in March, Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival in April, Bay to Breakers Race in May, Gay Pride Parade in June, the crush and the harvesting of the grapes in the wine country from late August through early October and Fleet Week in October.
Experience the beauty and culture of San Francisco before or after your cruise. From the vibrant streets of Chinatown to the stunning Golden Gate Bridge, there's something for everyone. Whether you love nature, festivals, or history, this city has it all.
What is commonly referred to as Los Angeles is a region that is actually comprised of over eighty cities; among them are Hollywood, the home of the American film industry, Beverly Hills, featuring the homes of the stars and the shopping Mecca Rodeo Drive and the beaches of the rich and famous in Malibu.
