| My husband David and I loved every minute of the tour. He only took it to indulge me on our 30th wedding anniversary. In the first ten minutes he was thanking me for getting the tickets.
We live in Monterey and wish we had known how much fun it is. We have had so many guests we would have urged to go. I promise our neighbors and next guests will hear all about it.
Doug our tour guide was very charming and knowledgeable. Someone you would like as a friend.
I would like to also thank the staff at Zerve for being so helpful.
Sincerely, Larrie Binkerd |

| The tour guide (ours was the owner) was very knowledgeable and full of lots of good tidbits of information. The tour we were on included the 17 mile drive which was great. It was very nice to have someone to provide information as we drove along. If we would have driven ourselves, we wouldn't have had the benefit of an experienced guide. I would definitely recommend this tour. It was well worth the money. |

| I would definitley recommend this. My husband is a big movie buff and I am not, but I thought it could be fun. I'm so glad we decided to do it. It was very enjoyable and very informative. |

| Monterey Movie Tours is the most professional tour of it's kind I have ever come across! It is a mixture of scenic beauty, movie scenes and the history of the Monterey peninsula all rolled into one. Our group was fortunate enough to have Doug, the owner, showcase this technologically advanced tour using his "radio quality" voice and his "native son" stories to add a personal touch to the overall experience. The stops the bus makes along the way made for several "KODAK" moments!
This is a tour for all ages and an experience that will be long remembered!
Thanks Doug, it was worth every penny and I can't wait to come back again!

| All the people in my group enjoyed the Monterey movie tour. The bus goes all over the peninsula so this is a good tour for first time visitors. The people in my group were avid movie buffs. We thoroughly enjoyed the movie clips we saw. At the beginnning of the tour there is a video presentation that goes from one movie title to another, chosen from the 200 movies filmed in the Monterey area. This part was cut off pretty quickly, which was frustrating to us. We would have enjoyed seeing much more. The one thing about the tour that could have been better would be showing parts of more movies and having less talk by the tour guide. Overall though, the tour was a pleasure. |

| A fun activity, especially for folks who cannot get around to see many of the Monterey Peninsula sights- our tour was on a super hot day [rare for this area] and the bus was extremely stuffy- could have used air conditioning and/or fans to make the ride more comfortable- the owner provided great narration to the movie clips and anecdotes about the area. |

Beautiful drive but less than exciting

| I enjoyed my 17 mile drive tour however was a little disappointed. That may partly be due to the fact that the others on the tour were a little less than spontaneous, not even wanting to get off the bus at some of the stops. I would have enjoyed a bit more exploring and interaction however that was not due to the tour or the driver but a result of the others on the bus, which they could not control. The scenery was great. Many of the movies that were pointed out were older movies and/or less than popular movies so overall I'd say that was the least exciting part of the tour. The scenery was great but the movie connection not so much. |
