Pasadena’s Rose Parade – Bus A (Mission Valley, Rancho Bernardo, & Escondido)

TOUR MANAGER: Leslie Winkel

Celebrate the start of the New Year at the world-famous Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena! You've watched it on television along with millions of others worldwide, but there's nothing like being there. Your senses will be filled with the exciting sights and sounds of this spectacular event as colorful and animated floats, spirited marching bands, high-stepping equestrian units and celebrities parade in front of you down Colorado Boulevard. The 2023 theme, "Turning the Corner," celebrates the unlimited potential that each new year brings. This year's parade is held on Monday, January 2nd, in keeping with the parade’s tradition of “Never on a Sunday.” Your tour includes round-trip deluxe motor coach transportation, complimentary snacks and beverages served on the coach, reserved north-facing grandstand seats - with the sun at your back, not in your eyes - and unobstructed views of the parade.

• Please Note: The motor coach parks 0.4 miles from your assigned parade seats and thus requires a 10-15 minute walk on flat surfaces. Access to your assigned grandstand seat(s) requires ascending stairs.

• Assigned Tour Manager subject to change without notice.
