What travellers are saying
- Robbin J1 contributionThis tour exceeded expectations. It’s a fun way to experience 17 mile drive. We loved riding the e-bikes. I’d highly recommend this. Thanks Noah!Written July 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- CareBearJaco, Costa Rica25 contributionsOverall we enjoyed the entire trip, however the focal point for us was going to Monterrey and getting to spend 2 hours there as advertised—which was cut to 1.5 hours by the driver—we barely finished our lunch before having to sprint back to the bus! That was very disappointing as we based our time on having 2 hours there to eat plus browse the shops. Note: the driver also made a few misstatements along the way. Otherwise, the trip was good and scenic.Written June 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Janet WPhiladelphia, PA11 contributionsOur family had a wonderful tour (our first) with Bonnie, who was engaging, funny, and informative. While all four of us were adults, there were several young children on the tour, and Bonnie was terrific with them, managing to keep them engaged throughout the tour. There was a good variety of restaurants and types of food, and we learned a lot of interesting facts about Carmel.Written July 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Betty J2 contributionsOverall, a very nice experience. The cottages were totally charming! We are locals and it was something different to do in Carmel. When we had to cross Ocean Avenue, it was a little dangerous because there was no crosswalk. There should be a warning that some parts of the walk are steep. People not in shape shouldn’t attempt this tour. The guide was really helpful and warned if you went the wrong way. Those in decent shape should try it once!Written March 12, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Lauri B1 contributionWe’ve been to Carmel many times so decided it was time to learn the history and we had a lovely afternoon with our guide Monica. Her stories and back alley walks were so interesting! Highly recommend this tour. She also is the author of the Carmel history book so you can trust she knows what she’s talking about.Written June 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Brew48 contributionsViews were just beautiful pedaling through the hills of Carmel on E Bikes that made the experience an easy ride! Enjoyed the history. Thank you, will be back!Written June 26, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Kelly RSan Diego4 contributionsOur group of three had an amazing time and learned so much! Sheryl led us with patience. She was hands on, but let us do every step ourselves. We had tried making macarons before and we learned we were doing it all wrong! I can't wait to implement all of her techniques. We each went home with 12 beautiful and delicious macarons. Highly recommend this experience!Written June 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Lisa R1 contributionToby was an amazing tour guide and a blast to hang out with. Very knowledgeable about the area and about wine. He recommended some amazing restaurants and local haunts. Especially enjoyed his historical knowledge of the town. Highly recommend! Do this tour if you find yourself in Carmel by the Sea! Super fun!Written June 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Vanessa S1 contributionThis was a cool little audio tour. We enjoyed driving down the coast and having fun facts pointed out along the way. It was especially useful to have tips on where to stop and take short hikes. My dad, his girlfriend and I all enjoyed the tour.Written November 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JLosAngelesLos Angeles45 contributionsThis was a great tour. Steve was both personable and knowledgeable. He shared his love for the Carmel/Monterey area and took us to three great wine tasting rooms. We had a blast riding around in his VW Bus and enjoyed learning about the region and the wine in the area. I would highly recommend this tour, the four of us had a great time.Written May 31, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Storyteller2540461 contributionThe scenery on this hike was undeniable, but our guide, Monica, was the true gem, sharing information as a true storyteller, with poignancy and flourish. We would have followed her anywhere, and we now have a memory that is human, humane, as well as pictorial. We highly recommend this tour for everyone.Written July 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Laurie C5 contributionsThis tour is the best way to see all that Monterey, Carmel, and the 17 MILE DRIVE have to offer. Carlos was an excellent and amazing guide, and Ben was so helpful in our pre planning discussions. Time was allowed to have lunch at Fisherman's Warf. Great experience with California Pacific Excursions,Written June 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
