Discover America's West - Vancouver to San Diego

Independent rail journey from Vancouver down the West Coast to San Diego

Illustration of Discover America's West - Vancouver to San Diego

Railbookers operates this independent rail package that travels the length of the West Coast from Vancouver to San Diego over 13 days and 12 nights. The trip starts in Vancouver, described as the 'Hollywood of the North,' then heads south through the Cascade Mountains to Seattle, called the 'Emerald City,' where stops include the Space Needle and the Seattle Waterfront. From Seattle, the scenic Coast Starlight train carries travelers south into San Francisco, and the route continues down the California coast to Los Angeles and San Diego. Because this is an independent package rather than an escorted tour, travelers manage their own time in each city rather than following a tour director. It suits travelers who want to see five West Coast cities by rail at their own pace. Prices start from $3,999 per person.
