Holiday Review: Highlights of Andalucia
A major plus is that the tour group is smaller so on guided excursions it is possible for all of us to hear the guide.

Holiday Review: Highlights of Andalucia
The Platinum Tourer coach is very good for longer tours when comfort is more important.

Holiday Review: Western Treasures
A chance to see the West Coast of the USA plus Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon and Yosemite in Springtime (plus try out the new Platinum Tourer service) was just too good to miss. We also had some friends to see in San Francisco so Archers arranged an earlier flight and a four night pre-holiday extension for us at a nominal extra cost. So easy.
We joined the tour party at the Carlton Hotel in San Francisco then set off on what I can only describe as the most high mileage action packed roller coaster of a trip I've ever been on. Be prepared for anything - or on this trip - be prepared for everything.
In Monterey it was so cold we had to buy jackets; in LA it was so wet we had to find umbrellas; in Las Vegas it was so hot we burned and in the Grand Canyon it snowed. (But in San Francisco it was just perfect!)
And that says so much about this tour - each stop on the road is not only completely different, it is totally contrasting. The Pacific coastline must be one of the most beautiful drives in the world, with Monterey a little gem you can't fail to love. Los Angeles on the other hand is vast and sprawling and concrete, much of it scruffy and downbeat, especially in the rain, but Universal Studios is a sheer hoot and a must for children of all ages. Las Vegas is, well, Las Vegas - it's heaven and it's hell and you'll love or you'll hate it. Whichever, I guarantee you'll never forget it.
Then there's the Grand Canyon, which is just - Wow! - Both from ground level and in the air and then there's the magnificent Hoover dam and the beautiful Colorado River. Yosemite National Park will test the size of your camera's memory card while the sheer beauty of San Francisco bay will just take your breath away.
But of course there is more, much more - Solvang, Sonora, Carmel and Sacramento, Santa Barbara ......This is a big trip by any standards. We felt the leather seated comfort and extra space of the Platinum Tourer option more than justified the extra cost and helped cut those long distances down to size.
Two important things to add:
firstly, the guide and the driver are always your most important travelling companions. In their hands lies your welfare and safety. We enjoyed the company of guide Craig and driver Stan and if there are two nicer guys to be found working on a coach, we haven't met them yet.
Secondly, San Francisco. By any standards San Francisco is a wonderful city, right up there with Barcelona, Rome, Rio et al. If you can afford the time to take an extension, do so - you would regret it if you didn't.
Enjoy.

Holiday Review: Eastern USA & Canada
When travelling for 14 days and circa 1800 miles the extra facilities of the Platinum Tourer are worth the extra costs. Also the smaller group is easier to manage egress, i.e. on and off at the various stops.
