The large coach windows offer clear views of the changing landscape from the Pacific Coast Highway's seaside cliffs to the Sierra Nevada mountain range.

Las Vegas evenings are usually unscheduled after the guided Strip tour letting guests enjoy shows or casinos. Nature stops like Yosemite include roughly 4 hours for personal hiking or photography.
