Excursión de un día a Monterey y Carmel por la Costa de California

Muy bien. Preciosa la zona.

We had a great time on this trip. The scenery along the coast was awesome. Especially along the "17 mile road" which included Pebble Beach. Monterey was great. The best part of the trip though was our driver/tour guide, George. He was super informative, and presented everything with very interesting background stories. And he had a good sense of humor. I highly recommend him and this trip.

This was beautiful and educational. What a country, and i am glad that we decided not to rent a car and go it alone, because this way you can sit back and relax.

This is a good tour to see Monterey and Carmel without having to drive. The drive down is beautiful. Monterey is kind of touristy. Carmel is pretty authentic.
It's a long day so be prepared for a lot of ride time.

This tour was fantastic, it gives you a real flavour of Monterey and Carmel by the Sea, my only complaint was I would have liked longer wherever we went! I highly recommend the aquarium, its amazing. The coach was really comfortable and our guide George was knowledgeable, so polite and very enthusiastic about where we were going. He really made the trip for us.

I was very exited about my day trip to Monterey and Carmel after reading the description on line, but was very disappointed by the end of the day. The free hotel pickup and drop off was good. We didn't have to figure out another form of transportation. Our first stop was in Davenport to use the restroom and purchase coffee or a bakery snack. This was rather hectic since the women's bathroom has 2 stalls and most of the bus was filled with women. We did see some ocean and cliff views out the bus window along the way to our next stop. The next stop was Monterey/Cannery Row where I chose not to go to the expensive aquarium for 1 hour and 15 minutes. This just did not seem like enough time. I did enjoy eating lunch at a seafood restaurant overlooking the bay and shopping in the town. Again we were reminded to use a restroom if possible before returning to the bus. The 17 mile drive had ocean views again, but when traveling so fast it is almost impossible to get pictures. Our next stop was Bird Rock, but was disappointed that we did not stop at Seal Rock that was mentioned in the description of the trip. Again we were reminded to use the restroom and there really was not much to take pictures of but a rock covered in bird droppings. We drove past the Lone Cyprus and had to quickly try and take pictures through the window and ended up with pictures that didn't turn out. That was the end of our ocean views. We then went on to Pebble Beach where we again were reminded to use the restroom. This stop was very disappointing if you are not interested in golf and seeing a couple greens. We went on the Carmel by the Sea. This was the biggest disappointment of all. We did not go anywhere near the beach and stopped at an expensive little mall with few places food could be purchased. We again were reminded to use the bathrooms. When asked about the beach we were told we were about 11 blocks away and wouldn't have time to go there. Not sure where the sweeping views of this very quaint, art-loving town were. Silicon Valley was mentioned in the dark as we were traveling back to San Fransisco. We were very glad to be dropped back off at our hotel.

Our driver was superb! And getting picked up at our hotel was such a plus. We sat about 5 rows back with about 10 or so others on the bus and then had several more stops to pick up others. When we arrived at the tour office to pick up our tickets, everyone sitting behind us, about 20 or so, rushed ahead of us to get out of the bus in order to get their tickets first and get on line to re-enter the bus to get the best seats. We had to sit in the back of the bus for the entire tour and if you are 5' 2 or shorter, you cannot see over the seat in front of you. It made seeing the sites very difficult, having to stand up frequently. A mini bus would be the way to go next time.

Our tour guide, George was amazing. He provided an in-depth background of the region. The sights along the route were breathtaking. This is an organized professional touring company. We would schedule with this company for our future travels!

This trip exceeded our expectations. George, our tour guide, was awesome. He was informative and fun as we rode along Highway 1. We even took a trip to Pebble Beach along the way. Pick up and drop off at our hotel made the trip super easy. This trip is a must-do while visiting San Francisco.

Very good tour. Excellent driver. Only suggestion: allocate a little more time for Carmel and a little less for Monrerrey.
