Coastal Los Angeles To San Francisco Tour
Best Time To Travel
California is at its most stunning between mid-Spring (April) to late Autumn (October), with most tourists coming in during Summer (June to August). Early reservations are a must, so book an RV now! Campground stays can also be booked online.
A tour of California wouldn't be complete without a trip to its golden beaches and national forests. Here's an itinerary that's short and simple, with guaranteed fun along the coast of the North Pacific Ocean. You'll be out in the sun most of the time, so pack a hat and some sunscreen as well. Make sure you have everything you need with our US Camping Checklist.
The tour can be finished in only 7 days, although you can extend your stay at the chosen towns and attractions by a day or two. There is no need to go offroad, so a standard RV of any size will work with the itinerary. We can help you find the perfect Motorhome For Hire from only the top US brands.
