Today is yours to spend exploring at your own pace, perhaps take a San Francisco trolley ride or visit Pier 39 and Fisherman’s Wharf - where you can taste a “unique brew” on a tour of the Anchor Steam Brewery, which dates back to 1896. Maybe a shopping trip to Union Square is more your thing, be sure to take a tour of the nearby lane with the “shady” reputation. You’ll be spoilt for choice as there is so much to see and do in the City by the Bay.

Time to bid farewell to San Francisco and California as we travel to beautiful Lake Tahoe, Nevada. We will take a look round the Cal-Neva Lodge which straddles the California/Nevada state line.
