Philippe then boards the Coastal Starlight, a legendary line offering spectacular views from the California coast to Santa Barbara. The globetrotter's journey continues in San Francisco with the Golden Gate Bridge, symbol of the city. Finally, he crosses the majestic forests of giant sequoias by steam train.
