Mini Adventures in the Bay Area!

We are excited to announce an original way for veteran and newbie Tortoise riders to experience our unique travel style. With a very small commitment of time and money you can take a first look or a refresher course with the Green Tortoise. These appetizer-style adventures will focus on local Bay Area destinations. By combining short hops in our unique lounge coaches with interludes into the local communities and parklands these trips offer a refreshing way to spend a spring day.

The first in our series: Coasting to Santa Cruz on March 13, 2010

Cruise to our neighborhood coastal farming community of Half Moon Bay for coffee and then head for a splash in local tidepools or a stroll on the beach. Be on the lookout for whales, elephant seals and the occasional surfer on the way to Big Basin! Hike creek-side to the lesser known redwood grove or just chill-out and watch the waves. We will swing through Santa Cruz before we wrap up the days adventure with multiple Bay Area public transportation drop offs.
