| We had the pleasure of having Doug (the owner of Movie Tours of Monterey) as our driver and narrator of this fascinating tour. Doug knows his stuff! We enjoyed listening to his stories about Clint Eastwood and seeing all of the interesting sites used for filming in the Monterey Bay area. Doug has a great speaking voice and a good sense of humor. He even volunteered to take a picture of my husband and I at beautiful Cypress Point. I would definitely go on this tour again and highly recommend it to everyone whether you are a movie buff or not. The scenery will take your breath away. Good job Movies Tours of Monterey!
Sincerely,
Joan and Adam Williams |

| We are very familure with this area and traveled the same roads in our own car, but we saw everything with a new eye on the tour. Doug was very interesting to listen to as he told the history and sites of so many movies. We very much enjoyed ourselves, and have recommended this outing to others. |

| This was a great tour! Highly recommended. Our guide, who identified himself as the tour company owner, was personable and knowledgeable. Anyone who likes movies and especially film history will find the tour most satisfying. Because of this experience, we will look for movie tours in other locations. |

| Really enjoyed the movie aspects of the tour, though not the non-movie tourist type information. The long stop (40 minutes) at Pebble Beach Resort was too long, for my tastes, but my companions enjoyed it. I would have liked even more movie site visits instead, and even more movie information, but what I saw was great.
The tour guide (Doug) was very sweet and friendly, and kind to my elderly friends. |

| Having spent quite a bit of time in the Monterey area this tour was ok. The sound system in the bus made a lot of noise and was annoying. The movie information was interesting and it brought some new character to the area for me. |

| The Monterey movies tour was superb. The owner of the company gave a thorough explanation of movie scenes accompanied by playing the locations on video screen. The stop at Pebble Beach was awesome. Would definitely recommend this tour for anyone as a "must". |

| My husband and I are from Georgia and were taking a 2-week vacation up the Calif. coast. I saw this tour on the internet and thought it sounded like an interesting way to see the Monterey penninsula. I had to drag my husband on this tour because he is not a big fan of tours in general, is not a movie buff, and is very hard to please. I was on somewhat shakey ground because I had dragged him to a play in LA that he hated and he had not let me forget it. However, he raved about this tour. It was absolutely fabulous. If you like movies, you will be fascinated by this tour. We were lucky enough to have Doug, the owner, as a tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He had just the right touch. The tour is so unique and informative. If I am ever in Monterey again I will seriously consider retaking the tour . Try it! I think you will really like it, whether you are a movie buff or not. |

| Great having a local personality in DJ Doug as our guide. He's a warm personality and very knowledgeable of the Monterey/Carmel area. Man, does he know his movies! It was fun watching the video clips as we approached each of the sites that was on them. "A Summer Place" with Troy and Sandra is one of my wife's favorite old-time movies and the theme from that movie is so hauntingly beautiful. The tour was not only movie sites but of the whole Monterey Peninsula (including Carmel and Pacific Grove), one of the most picturesque areas in all the world. We enjoyed the scenery in your comfortable bus and the several places for photo ops. Standing right alongside the 18th green at Pebble Beach was one of the highlights for me. Thanks for a great time!! |
