Your journey begins in arguably one of the most romantic and cosmopolitan cities in the USA, San Francisco. Spend three nights exploring and immersing in all that San Francisco has to offer. From the Gold Rush and the infamous 1906 earthquake to the establishment of the flower power movement in the 1960s and the birth of Silicon Valley – the hills and buildings have history to tell and explore.
On day two you’ll discover the true rugged beauty of the Sierra Nevada on a full-day tour to Yosemite National Park. With your free time on day three, enjoy navigating some of its 40 hills spread across just 49 square miles, be sure not to miss the wonders of the world-famous Golden Gate Bridge.
It’s then time to embark on the second part of your journey and aboard Ruby Princess®, your home for the next eleven nights. Travel the Inside Passage and allow the natural landscapes to inspire your day’s adventures. Begin by sailing beneath the Golden Gate Bridge and along the Pacific Coast. As you voyage into the Inside Passage, enjoy one of the best ways to explore the fjords, small towns and natural landmarks.
