Modern Orthodox Kosher San Francisco, Lake Tahoe and Yosemite
Day-by-day itinerary
Day 1: San Francisco/ Lake Tahoe. Arrive early in San Francisco to enjoy all that this beguiling bayside city has to offer. Catch a ferry to Alcatraz, explore the bohemian suburb of Haight-Ashbury and look out over the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. Then leave the city behind and journey to Lake Tahoe, the perfect destination to indulge adventurous streaks. Hike, swim, rent bikes, set sail or simply relax on the ...shores of the lake. It'll be easy to spend a free afternoon in this scenic spot.
Day 2: Yosemite National Park. Hit the road and make tracks to one of the most spectacular parks in the country, Yosemite. This national park packs incredible beauty at every turn from drenching waterfalls to turquoise lakes to the hulking masses of El Capitan and Half Dome. It's near impossible to take a bad photograph here. Strap on comfortable hiking shoes and head out on one of the many trails in this park. With walks ranging from easy strolls to challenging treks, there's something to suit any fitness level. Perhaps enjoy an afternoon hike to one of the lower Nevada Falls or a more leisurely stroll to Mirror Lake. Soak in the sights, smells and sounds of this unforgettable setting.
Day 3: San Francisco. Say goodbye to the grand panoramas of Yosemite and head back to San Francisco. Stop off to gaze up at some mighty redwoods en route to the city. There'll still be a great deal of things to see and experience in San Fran. Admire the architecture of the Palace of Fine Arts, while away an hour or two in Golden Gate Park and perhaps celebrate the end of the trip in Chinatown.
