US West Coast Trips, Tours & Vacation Packages
It’s hard to argue against the West Coast being the best coast. Attracting writers, artists, and musicians alike, the Pacific Coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California have long enjoyed a laid-back vibe and fruitful way of living. With such varied and dramatic landscapes that provide plenty of outdoor opportunities to breathe in the fresh air, it’s hard to not feel at peace as you climb to the heights of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Olympia National Park, or Mount Hood, losing yourself in thought as your soul absorbs the ancient history held in their trees.
City life is different on the West Coast, as urban communities take pride in their local artisans, including their flourishing craft beer, wine, and coffee scenes. You’ll find all sorts of flavourful fare in western kitchens, absorbing plenty of Mexican and global influences while pushing for the highest quality of produce available from the region’s plentiful fields. Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles all boast diverse art scenes, bringing every school of thought to their eclectic collections of local and national galleries housed in official buildings and small underground venues alike.
