Fly-drive the classic West: San Francisco’s hills, Napa’s vineyards, the vastness of the Grand Canyon and the neon of Las Vegas. Big distances, bigger scenery.
Why it works
Out west the distances are the experience, this is a driving trip. Napa is the gentle start, the Grand Canyon the highlight, and Las Vegas an easy final night before flying home.
