Trip Description

Rein’s California Caper begins as you jet to Salt Lake City and spend nine days in the picturesque Southwestern United States. Teen travelers enjoy alpine slide rides in Park City, the beauty of Checkerboard Mesa in Zion National Park, and breathtaking scenery at Bryce Canyon National Park. From Bright Angel Point you’ll view the most spectacular Natural Wonder of the World, the Grand Canyon. Experience Sedona’s enchanted Red Rock country on your Pink Jeep Off-Road Adventure and two action packed days of entertainment in Las Vegas.

Sunny California is the next destination on your summer teen tour! Stay at our spectacular resort in Newport Beach, where we enjoy professional surfing lessons. Your summer tour will also visit the San Diego Zoo’s Wild Animal Park, where our open-air safari truck will bring us up-close to the animals. While staying on the energetic campus of UCLA in Los Angeles, we’ll visit Universal Studios and Disneyland. Next, it’s on to Lake Tahoe for water-skiing, tubing and the Squaw Valley Adventure Ropes Course. The excitement keeps growing as your teen tour runs the rapids on a whitewater raft adventure. Finally we head to San Francisco for the final stop of your California Caper teen tour. Teenagers spend three terrific days exploring the city by the bay before traveling home with your new teen tour friends and summer memories from the adventure of a lifetime.
