(B)
TOUR HIGHLIGHT - CITY SIGHTS: Experience the vibrant energy of Seattle's authentic farmer's market that tempts the senses with an array of aromas, eats, and friendly people. Pike Place Market has been a gathering place and bustling market for more than a century as one of the oldest operating farmer's markets in the U.S. Visitors and locals alike are drawn to the energy and extraordinary array of farm-fresh produce, paper-wrapped flowers, shops, restaurants, bars, fishmongers, street performers, and the first Starbucks – all mixing a rich blend of coffee culture and true Seattle style.
Cascades & Craft Beer

LOCAL FAVORITE - NATURAL WONDERS: Native American lore tells the story of a young princess who sacrificed her life on the falls to save her village from illness. This legendary spectacle of roaring waterfalls of Multnomah Falls plunges from 611 feet in a thunderous cascade of icy water and mist. Enjoy lunch at the historic lodge here in a magical setting in Oregon's Columbia River Gorge.
Rugged & Rosy

Depart Portland for TMK Creamery, a unique creamery and distillery focused on sustainability and innovative processes to make quality products. Continue through the Willamette Wine Valley to charming McMinnville for lunch and then on to the rugged Oregon coast to Newport, one of Oregon's most popular seaside resorts.
Next, visit Yaquina Head and learn about the headland's importance to the indigenous tribes of the area. The Lighthouse remains the tallest on the Oregon Coast and has been guiding ships safely to shore since 1873. This evening, enjoy a special dinner on the water at Clearwater Restaurant featuring local regional wine. (B/D)
LOCAL FAVORITE - SEASIDE SIGHTS & SAVORY BITES: Embodying the spirit of Newport, Clearwater Restaurant places an emphasis on fresh, local seafood and offers unmatched views of the surrounding harbor.

Continue along the Pacific coastline and stop in Redwood National Park, home to the world's tallest trees. Then, enter Eureka, California's lumber center, where you have a photo stop at the grand Carson Mansion—the most photographed example of Victorian architecture in the world and once the home of a West Coast lumber baron. (B)
LOCAL FAVORITE - EPIC RIDE: Visit Gold Beach and experience a thrilling jetboat ride on the Rogue River through this wild and remote region with your camera ready for glimpses of the American bald eagle!

Visit the award-winning Francis Ford Coppola Winery en route to San Francisco for a wine tasting, tour, and adventure through cinematic history. Continue to the “City by the Bay,” San Francisco, for a 2-night stay. (B)
TOUR HIGHLIGHT - NATURAL WONDERS: Enter an ancient world of towering trees along the Avenue of the Giants, a quiet 2-lane road that winds through some of the world's most spectacular scenery with redwood trees that seem to touch the sky.
