Dear Alumni and Friends,

A crimson bridge, cable cars, a sparkling bay, and streets lined with elegant Victorian homes—San Francisco is undeniably one of the world’s great cities. Reason enough to join us on a spectacular seven day journey through Northern California on the California Rail Discovery.

Begin your trip with a two night stay in the Fisherman’s Wharf area of San Francisco. A tour of the “City by the Bay” will show the city’s many highlights & features a San Francisco Bay Cruise for spectacular views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and the beautiful skyline. The rest of the day is at leisure to let you explore this great city on your own. The next day cross the Golden Gate Bridge & travel into Napa Valley Wine Country to board the famous Napa Valley Wine Train for lunch. Relive history as you roll through the Napa Valley onboard vintage Pullman railcars – this is sure to be a highlight. Then experience a Winery Tour & Tasting before heading onto Sacramento for an overnight stay. Drive through Old Sacramen-to, a unique 28-acre National Historic Landmark District that lives in homage to California’s Gold Rush of 1849.

Continuing your travels, board another train, Amtrak’s California Zephyr which heads east into the spectacular snow-capped Sierra Nevada Mountains and disembark in Truckee near Lake Tahoe. Enjoy three nights at a resort in Lake Tahoe in the scenic and popular South Lake Tahoe area. Discover Reno & its National Auto Museum and the historic town of Virginia City, once considered the richest city in America during its Old West mining days. Enjoy a Lake Tahoe Paddle Wheeler Cruise for breathtaking scenery & Emerald Bay explora-tion. Finally a Farewell Dinner at a local restaurant will cap off your western adventure.

Please review the itinerary details and count the extras. With roundtrip airfare included, we hope you can join us and agree this is an amazing and exciting trip.

Cheers,

Lisa K. ShaferSenior Director of Alumni &Parent Engagement
