Monterey Movie Tour
Sun, Sep 6  1:00 PM Sandyrayecl Female 60-69 Local Couple on a Date
I have been to the Monterey Peninsula many times,as I live nearby. This was a different and great way to show friends who come to visit., especially if you are limited on time and want them to experience this beautifu area! This tour was fantastic; enjoying the scenery as I didn't have to drive. Doug, the tour guide had stories that added local color. I am a movie buff, having owned a video store for ten years. It was great to see clips from old movies, filmed here. Doug, the tour director was great, very informative, and really knew the history of the area!

A Definite Must!!! Book tour BEFORE you sightsee!

We took the Saturday Movie Tour, 1pm -- The bus arrived on time and Doug, the owner, was our guide. He has a voice made for radio and he is very knowledgeable about the area, the movies and the connections that make this tour possible. We could have listened and toured all day with him. Doug is full of helpful hints and suggestions about things to do, became our camera man when we felt the urge for a Kodak Moment (and needed a photo of the two of us), and he clearly has a passion for the movies and local area. He is a people person for sure. He helped make our trip to Monterey and Carmel memorable. As an aside, Doug was kind enough to run our tour even though there were only 6 people on board. Unrelated to Scenic Movie Tours, a bus broke down that was supposed to have brought in an additional 16 or so passengers to join us on the Scenic Movie Tour. So, in essence, we had a very exclusive tour. Doug was candid about the misfortune of the other travelers and was still willing to let the show go on. He is the type of person you would love to meet for luch or dinner to learn more about his experiences and stories. The tour was simply not enough --Hats off to Doug! Bottom line, you will love this tour! This is not one of those dopey Duck Tour Adventures that you see in many cities. It will be better appreciated by teens and adults so don't drag you kids on board and expect them to sit and enjoy the tour. Again, it is not a Duck tour -- small children would likely spoil the tour for the rest of the bus in our opinion. Do not hesitate for a moment to book yourself or your group for this event. It would also be a good idea to book this tour before you go sightseeing so that you have the benefit of the many tidbits about the area that you learn from Doug. Then, when you return to sightsee after the tour is over, you will have a better appreciation for what you are seeing and where you want to spend your time. Bob and Marsha

This is a must do tour for movie buffs past and present. We thoroughly enjoyed the manner in which clips of the movies were presented in conjunction with the tour of the area. There was never a dull moment with our enthusiastic , personable guide. There is definelty something fascinating for everyone, whether it's a particular movie or the beautiful scenery. We are locals and have a whole new perspective of our home! We look forward to sharing this experience with family and friends.

We had nine people participate on the tour. We all had an excellent time. Very informative and entertaining. The mixture of film clips and seeing the locations in person was outstanding. The guide was humorous and personable. Highly recommended.

Doug, the host and driver was the best that anyone could ask for in a tour. His knowledge of the area and movies were great. His skill at describing how the scenes were done was fantastic. Plus he's a darn good bus driver..

A Must for Movie Buffs
Thu, Jul 16  1:00 PM AliceTanner Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Not just your ordinary bus tour of the beauty and interest that surrounds the Monterey area. This tour combines sightseeing, history of the area, movie trivia and more. You will see parts of Monterey you would not see otherwise and will see them in ways you never would but for the lenses of Hollywood. If you are up for something different and fun, take this trip.
