Going to CA for a few days. What should I see?

-I'll be in Las Vegas till Saturday morning, November 8th. (I will have been there since


-My flight back to NJ leaves from San Fransisco on Wednesday the 12th.

-Between the 8th and 12th I want to see as much touristy sh** I possibly can in that small period of time.



I plan to be in San Fran by Tuesday morning and spend a day and a half there. Any input on what I (and by I i mean my gf and me haha) should do/see in that small chunk of time?

We want to run down to San Diego and start making our way up. (including getting as close as possible to Laguna Seca. Also considering doing helicopter tour of grand canyon on saturday morning?

Well i recommend against the grand canyon... its a hole in the ground...


San diego to SF... Take the US-1 N untill san fransisco ... that drive is enough to satisfy anyone.. its like 9 hour drive but its absolutely amazing... great driving... sick views... and $7.99 regular gas in Big Sur so fill up before then.

Yeah do not take the 5 unless on the return trip (its sooooooo boring)

take the US-1 N (PAcific Coast Highway) and the restaurants/views are some of the greatest out there.

And in San fran, of course go to the Golden Gate Bridge. Visit Hate street and also china town. China town has some good food so dont miss out

Thanks for advice. I actually took a bus tour w/ my gf in LA and ended up taking 101 to san fran b/c it was too late in the day and wasn't worth the extra time in the dark.
