Join botanist and storyteller Steve Junak for a rare glimpse of some of the last original native coastal landscapes in southern California. This day-long trip begins at the Santa Barbara train depot where you will ride in style aboard a beautifully restored Vista Dome Lounge-Dining Car for a narrated scenic journey along an inaccessible and spectacular part of the coast and through several historic ranchos. Learn about the area’s rich human and natural history before stopping in San Luis Obispo. Enjoy a catered buffet lunch onboard (including beer, wine, and soft drinks) and change levels and sides for a new and different view on the way back home. Trips go rain or shine.
