DAY 1 – WELCOME TO LOS ANGELES
We’ll meet at LAX and head north along the Pacific Coast. First stop: the Getty Villa — a Roman-style mansion full of art and dramatic history, perched above the ocean.
After lunch overlooking the Pacific, we’ll stretch our legs with a short hike in the Santa Monica Mountains. Then we continue along the coastal road to the relaxed elegance of Santa Barbara.
Evening wine, ocean breeze, and palm silhouettes — not bad for day one.
DAY 2 – HOT SPRINGS AND DANISH CHARM
Rise and shine! Early morning we’ll hike into the mountains to discover natural hot springs hidden among pines and granite.
Afterward, we’ll stop in Solvang — a strange and lovely little town where windmills spin and pastry shops smell like Copenhagen.
Sunset will find us on a mountaintop above the ocean. The sky here doesn’t just change color — it performs.
DAY 3 – COASTAL MAGIC, HEARST CASTLE & SPA
We start the day with something surreal: Hearst Castle, perched high above the ocean. It’s not just a mansion — it’s a movie set brought to life. Zebras sometimes graze nearby, and every fountain and hall tells a story of excess, ambition, and Old Hollywood.
After wandering through gold ceilings and Roman pools, we’ll continue north along the iconic Highway 1 — where mountains plunge straight into the Pacific, and every bend offers a postcard.
We’ll picnic with a view, walk along hidden coves or forest trails in Big Sur, and finally let the day melt away in a natural hot springs spa — with ocean air, warm mineral water, and stars starting to blink above.
DAY 4 – CARMEL, COASTLINE & SAN FRANCISCO
After breakfast, we’ll explore the stylish town of Carmel-by-the-Sea — fairytale cottages, art galleries, and espresso on quiet corners.
From there, we take one of the world’s most scenic drives — the legendary 17-Mile Drive — past golf courses, mansions, and lone cypress trees clinging to rocky cliffs.
We’ll finish our journey in San Francisco. Flights can be scheduled after 7:00 PM — or stay a few days and let the city pull you in.
