Take a leisurely overnight tour from San Francisco to Las Vegas, passing through one of California's greatest National Parks - Yosemite.

Yosemite National Park was one of the first wilderness parks in the United States and is best known for its waterfalls. Within its boundaries you can find deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, a vast wilderness area and soaring mountains.

After spending the night in Fresno/Bakersfield, day 2 begins by traveling through San Joaquin Valley - California's top agricultural producing region, sometimes called "the nation's salad bowl" for the great array of fruits and vegetables grown in its fertile soil. Continuing on you will visit Calico Ghost Town, one of the few original mining camps of the Old West.

Your overnight tour ends in the non stop entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas.
