California
The “Golden State” of California is renowned for its glorious weather, stunning coastline and extensive wine regions. Home to the vibrant cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco, this rich culture and beautiful landscape offers a wide variety to visitors and is a year-round destination.
Yosemite National Park is considered by most to be the most special park in the state – with dramatic granite cliffs, towering waterfalls and giant sequoia groves, it is a hot spot for outdoor enthusiasts as over 95% of the park designated as wilderness areas. A superb destination for birding, California has a diverse habitat of oceans, wetlands, lakes and rivers that attract numerous migratory bird species – Bald Eagles even make an appearance during the winter months.
A little more about California
The west coast is lined with white sandy beaches and the getaway havens of Santa Barbara, Monterey and Carmel, small towns where you can enjoy the coastline. From the pristine coastline and warm waters of the south to the rugged coastline in the north, there are spectacular areas throughout the region to be explored whether you are looking for a romantic getaway or a family adventure.

Sue Grimwood
In the late ’90s, I booked myself on an expeditionary voyage into the Antarctic Circle and was instantly hooked. Since then, I’ve returned to Antarctica a number of times and ventured deep into the Arctic – from Svalbard to the Russian and Canadian Arctic – always chasing that same sense of wonder. It’s this rare personal experience of the world’s polar extremes that I bring to every journey I plan.
