CALIFORNIA’S GOLDEN COAST:
With a coastline of exciting cities, sun-kissed beaches, world-class wineries and soaring redwood forests, California’s iconic Pacific coastline is popular at any time of year.
Named ‘The Golden State’ after the 19th-century gold rush, it still has plenty of treasures to share including some fine vintages. Sample a few in Sonoma and Napa Valley, cycle across San
Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, and follow in the footsteps of showbiz greats on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.
