Embark on an unforgettable road trip from Vegas to San Francisco, exploring the stunning landscapes of Yosemite National Park and the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
  • Spend three nights camping near Yosemite National Park with two full days of exploration.
  • Stroll through The Tunnel Tree, a sequoia so large the trail had to be cut through the centre of it during a hike to the Tuolumne Grove of Giant Sequoias.
  • Immerse yourself in the peace and quiet of your surroundings with nights spent camping under the stars.
  • Visit the crystal-clear Mono Lake and marvel at Yosemite’s natural wonder, Half Dome.
  • Explore the iconic spots of Yosemite Valley, including Yosemite Falls and Sentinel Bridge.
  • End your adventure in San Francisco, the eclectic, multicultural 'City by the Bay'.
  • Check out the Golden Gate Bridge and explore the vibrant heart of San Francisco.
  • NORTH AMERICA CAMPING
  • The campsites that we use are selected for either their scenic beauty, their convenient location to places of interest and/or the facilities available. We aim to offer you a selection of different types of campsites.
  • If you've never camped before - no problem! We provide a complete set of camping and cooking equipment. This includes roomy easy-to-pitch tents, which are shared by only two people and are equipped with thin foam rubber sleping mats and vinyl floors. Your leader will show you how to pitch a tent on the first day. On many trips we also spend a few nights in reasonably priced hotels/motels/hostels (as per the itinerary).
  • Remember that sleeping bags and a pillow are not provided. Check out the Packing section for more information.
  • You'll find the necessary facilities - toilets and in most cases showers, washing machines and dryers - at our campsites. The showers at some campsites may require a payment (usually no more than US$1-$3 for a quick shower). This is payable locally and is a contribution towards the cost of a limited water supply. Rarely, a campsite may only have cold water available for showers.
  • In all campsites there are strict quiet hours when no loud noise is allowed, typically from 10pm to 7am. This means that all music, singing and noisy group gatherings must stop. We request that all our travellers respect these campsite rules.
  • For trips where there are lodges/cabins used, couples travelling together may be separated when our rooming arrangements are based on single gender, however in some accommodations the group will be in mixed gender rooms.
  • Our high-quality camping equipment (including tents) can be affected by bad weather conditions. This can result in some wet and cold conditions inside the tent. Your spirit of adventure and flexibility will help make your adventure trip an exciting and unforgettable experience. On nights where the group is camping, and weather conditions are extreme (such as snow or heavy rain), there may be an opportunity for the group (if everyone agrees) to stay at an alternative location such as a nearby hostel or hotel. When this is the case the upgrade is at your own expense.
  • Las Vegas Hotels
  • On all trips with stays in Las Vegas, resort fees are included in your package and on any pre or post accommodation that is booked through Intrepid. These fees do not need to be paid locally.
