| Description | |
| Visit Death Valley while our favorite step-on guide - Death Valley Phil - is still available to will bring the valley to life in his own amazing way. Visit the most spectacular highlights of the largest National Park in the contiguous United States. Stay the first night next to the roaring Kern River above the town of Kernville in the very southern tip of the Sierra's. Stay three nights at the historic Furnace Creek Ranch Resort, an oasis in the center of the valley. You'll discover historic borax mining sites, Ubehebe Crater plus Scotty's Castle, one of the most popular and historical sites in Death Valley. Tour the southern valley from Zabriskie Point to Badwater at 282 feet below sea level and the Devil's Golf Course - a vast expanse of knobby salt formations rising from the earth. Enjoy "Under The Stars BBQ" and wagon rides and Dinner at the Furnace Creek Inn. Experience Manzanar (Japanese Interment camp) as we travel up highway 395 (weather permitting) for our final night in Bishop! Join us in Death Valley this spring - "You can travel greater distances - but no place will take you further away." Escorted by Bill Montgomery. | |
