Join us on this new tour that travels down the California Coast to discover the holiday magic in San Clemente, Carlsbad and Encinitas. First, we’ll enjoy a docent-guided tour of Casa Romantica, the beautiful bluff-top home built by San Clemente founder, Ole Hanson, that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Besides beautiful holiday décor, the home features artwork and artifacts, impressive Spanish Colonial Revival architecture, delightful gardens and an expansive and breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean! We’ll continue south to the Carlsbad Premium Outlets and enjoy time at leisure for browsing and an early dinner (approximately 4:00 p.m.) on your own at a variety of sit down and fast casual restaurants. Or, venture across the street to the Windmill Food Hall, offering 13 different food vendors inside the iconic Carlsbad windmill. As the sun sets, we’ll step into a magical winter wonderland at Lightscape, a dazzling trail of color and light, at the San Diego Botanic Garden. This limited time, internationally acclaimed holiday experience transforms the garden into a glowing, enchanted world of light, color and imagination. Wander beneath glowing floral canopies and through sparkling light sculptures as you leisurely stroll along the one mile, illuminated walking trail at your own pace. Seasonal hot beverages are available for purchase. This tour involves moderate walking over uneven terrain.
To ensure a healthy and enjoyable travel experience for our guests, this tour will operate with additional health & wellness measures in place.
