Fun day exploring the world-famous Golden Gate bridge!

Fun fact: Did you know that the color of the Golden Gate Bridge is actually not red, but a color called "International Orange"? Due to San Francisco's frequent fog, the color was specifically chosen to increase visibility. We sure got lucky with a clear view! 🙌

👉🏻 Recap of Day 10 of the Wild Western USA tour! Our group ticked off yet another national park — the picturesque and scenic valleys of Yosemite National Park!

👉🏻 Recap of Day 9 - After a free day in Las Vegas, we were headed to Death Valley - the hottest place on Earth, with an average temperature of 34° C / 92° F. Our group was shocked to discover that Death Valley is also home to the lowest point in North America, measuring 282 feet / 85.5 metres below sea level! With Death Valley being a scorcher, we made sure to end our day in a cute little town that was more than 10 degrees cooler 😇

👉🏻 On the 5th day of our Wild Western USA tour, we spent a whole day at the Grand Canyon! The Grand Canyon is known for its overwhelming size, so trying to see the whole Grand Canyon in one day is an impossible mission, but we nevertheless made the best of the day by taking our adventurers to all the ‘grand’ spots!

21/10/2024

👉🏻 Recap of Day 4! Some members of our group opted for an adventurous hike to Devil’s Bridge in Arizona to check out the iconic natural sandstone bridge! Sedona is a spiritual hotspot in Arizona, so this was of course the best place for our adventurers to overcome their fear of heights as they trekked along the cliffs to walk on the Devil’s Bridge!
