I would like to start traveling again within the United States after a long pause, and I'm looking for comfortable escorted tours (small or medium-size groups) that cover the Southern U.S. and West Coast regions. Would you provide me the tour which is happen in Nov and DEC 2025? I want to go out soon. I prefer tours that are well organized, relaxed in pace, and fully escorted, including hotel, luggage handling, and local transport. Some of the destinations I'm interested in include: Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans, St. Augustine, Sedona, Carmel-by-the-Sea, Santa Fe, Lake Tahoe, Acadia National Park, and the Great Smoky Mountains. I am also interested in experiencing scenic tourist trains, such as Rocky Mountaineer, Napa Valley Wine Train, or Grand Canyon Railway, as part of the trip.

We have attached the day to day itinerary as well as the activity level and important information. Please let us know any dates you are interested in traveling and we will be happy to check availability. Activity level: The overall activity level of this tour is a level 2. This means you like a balanced approach to travel. Walking two to three miles over the course of a day is no problem for you. You can handle a variety of terrains, from cobblestone streets to moderate hills with relative ease and without assistance. You can climb two flights of stairs with ease. Expect some full days balanced with free time to recharge or set out on your own adventure. You can handle altitudes up to 6,000 feet.

Our tour manager, Wesley Glass, gave me a wonderful experience with all his information and organization of 44 people. Every day was a great adventure. I enjoyed each destination and it's hard to pick a favorite. Charleston had the wonderful horse carriage ride and Boone Plantation, Savannah had an informative walking tour and I love River Street, and Jekyll Island was relaxing and I enjoyed the sunset and fire pit with s'mores with new friends.Show more
