| We were welcomed to the bus by name. Turns out a bus broke down on the way from San Francisco that morning with a group of 20 who planned to take the Monterey Movie tour. One lady happened to see the bus and she decided to join us. Can't believe our guide/owner was kind enough to take just 3 people! We really enjoyed the tour and learned so much. We will be in Boston in June and just may take that movie tour too. |

| What a great way to see the Monterey Bay area and the 17-Mile Drive, while watching and learning about movies filmed in the area! Anyone who loves movies (old and new) and the gorgeous Central California coast will really enjoy this tour. |

| The tour was a good break in our day and got us to see places and get info we probably wouldn't have gotten otherwise (E.g., Pebble Beach Lodge).
We appreciated the fact that the tour ran with only 3 ticket-holders. We'd have definitely expected to have it canceled for lack of participation, so this made it more enjoyable. Felt we got very personalized treatment as a result.
Probably could have done with less discussion of "A Summer Place," and maybe a tad less Clint Eastwood namedropping (since we weren't going to actually meet him), but all-in-all, fairly interesting reviews.
Thanks for having us along. |

Excellent tour, especially if you like old films.

| This was a very unique tour, and was really worth the price! The tour operator was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of background information about the area. I would recommend it for your first trip to the Monterey Peninsula, as it give you an idea of various places of interest, and then you can plan to spend more time in targetted areas later. |

| I have live in Monterey County for 30 plus years, and was never aware of the Movie Tour. I'm so glad my friends recommended that we take the tour. I knew movies had been made in Monterey county, but was shocked to find the number of movies as well as the different locations that Hollywood has used.
I have two friends that are TRUE MOVIE BUFFS....I'm going to recommend that they take the tour. |

| 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!! |
