What's your favorite place to visit in California?
Thanks for sharing
I love San ffransico
La jolla malibu beach point dume la guna beach getty villa san juancapistrabi poppy filed at antelope mountain and etc
23:39 – Sorry no dinosaurs in the tar pits. Pick a different stock photo.
theres no good place to visit in california, state run and ruined by worthless liberal politics, stay away people
I like Santa Barbara place ๐
Iโm leaving California but I donโt know about the displace thank you so muchโ๏ธ
California is the best for me โค๏ธ
My favorite state – Alaska
Favorite spot in CA – Lake Tahoe or the northern CA coast
You should learn how to pronounce Spanish words before doing vids on California.
I have lived in California for 40 years I have never understood why Anyone would visit Palm Springs? I think Julian is one of the best towns in California. Napa is expensive and not as exciting as I had hoped. Sonoma and Temecula Vally are much better. Santa Barbra is just a short day trip, go to Solvang if you go to Santa Barbra. Muir Woods for a great day trip to redwoods. Disneyland is not in LA? Be prepared for the huge homeless problem is San Francisco. Mt. Shasta was left out and it is beautiful, actually all of Northern California was left out. San Fran is in the middle more than north.
Love CA. There are so many beautiful places to visit in CA. Just take a drive up the coast. Big Sur, Carmel ahhhh
Cambria ca, is a very nice quiet coastal town, great to visit!!
I so enjoyed watching this. As a teenager it was always my dream to visit California, and in 2009 this dream came trueโฆ.which is a big deal for a British person. I went on a tour and was blessed to visit most places mentioned in the videoโฆ.all of which wer simply awe inspiring. An additional place I loved was Solvang.
Thank you so much for making this ๐
Beautiful places thanks for sharing
California and Yosemite is my fovorite
My favorite place thousand homeless people in San Francisco and LA๐๐
Thanks ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
Sorry but you missed Sonoma County which is just adjacent to Napa Valley and Mt. Shasta.
California used to be a good place. It had since turned out to be a shithole. There is no such thing is a good place in CA!
Professional!
I too am from Chicago but settled in Santa Maria, right between SLO and Santa Barbara. By far my favorite places in California would be the redwoods. From Big Sur to Crescent City, they are the most beautiful natural wonders I've ever seen.
The best state โฅ๏ธ
I love living in Los Angeles. Best place Ive ever lived. DC is next best, Manhattan next, Boulder next. SC? No way. FL? ugh. Tacoma WA? Nope. I love LA โค๏ธ
Just a heads up, youโre using pictures from Sonoma County to cover Napa County. This is a big no-no for us Sonoma County natives who feel very proud of the natural beauty and diversity here that you cannot find in Napa. Plus a little known fact: California is the most ecologically diverse state in the US and Sonoma County is the most ecologically diverse county in the US.
I'm from California, and have traveled up and down by myself, with relatives and with friends from other states and other countries. Generally, I like your video, but I have to be honest. It seems more like an ad, a quick, fast convenient way to get viewers interested, and ultimately to call in to your agency to book a tour.
Growing up in CA, weโd go to Lake Tahoe a lot for vacation. Never gets old, Tahoe is one of my favorite places in the country
Heavenly place no place like home ๐๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
I would not waist money visiting California there is real beautiful places in other countries like Mexico Cancun witch is also way cheaper to visit or Europe if you have the money Iceland is an amazing place
Thanks for the great story . I live in California , N . Hollywood ,from 1994 and like it very much. This really the best place for life ,because each attraction is closed to visit and enjoy. Every weekend we ride to the Will Roger beach to swim 6 months in the year and to see amazing sunset!!!
Favorite spots to visit in CA:
Northern:
Baker Beach, San Francisco
Palace of Fine Arts, San Francisco
Japanese Garden/Central Park, San Mateo
Disney Family Museum, San Francisco
Winchester Mystery House, San Jose
Pescadero for Artichoke Bread
Southern:
Hearst Castle
Disneyland
King's Hawaiian Bread Reataurant, Torrance CA
Balboa Park, San Diego
THANK YOU for including some places in Northern California. I am a lifelong California native, with family from one end of the state to the other. This gorgeous state is more than just beaches and Hollywood. And, Northern California is majestic, to say the least. Monterey and Carmel are "dreamy"- perfect description. Lovely, misty trees, wildlife, and low-key, but high class homes. And, Sacramento is a fantastic city for charm, history, food, and for raising a family. Sacramento has a great art and music scene, as well. And, Yosemite? Jaw-dropping. Leave it to a tour director to finally do this RIGHT!
