Known best as being the playground of the rich and famous, Sun Valley happens to sit on the edge of the Sawtooth Mountains. This vast wilderness sets the stage for our tour through beautiful, Idaho. Begin with an overnight in Boise, ID where we will tour the World Center for Birds of Prey. Travel through the Sawtooth Mountains to Sun Valley where we will spend two nights. Take a guided tour of the epic Sawtooths. Visit Craters of the Moon National Monument, a vast ocean of lava flows with scattered islands of cinder cones and sagebrush. Enjoy the hugely entertaining Sun Valley Summer Ice Show featuring an all-star lineup of some of the world's finest skaters. Next, travel to historic Wallace, ID where we will spend three nights. Here we tour the Sierra Silver Mine to discover 130-year history of mining in the Coeur d'Alenes. Visit Sandpoint, ID, the most beautiful small town in America, nestled between three mountain ranges on magnificent Lake Pend Oreille. Experience the breathtaking scenery of Lake Pend Oreille onboard the Shawnodese, a classic vessel with grand old style. On our final day we stop at Lake Coeur d'Alene, a spectacular spot in the panhandle of the state. We cruise the pristine waters, then travel to Spokane for lunch at the Davenport Hotel prior to flights home.
