Scenic Movie Tour of Monterey

Our friends really enjoyed the tour. We have done it before but thoroughly enjoyed it the 2nd time as well. Loved all the information, the comfort of the bus, and our informative leader. We will definitely bring other family & friends again.

It was very imformative. Some of the scenery was beautiful. The movie clips were a nice touch. We enjoyed the stops and hd plenty of time at Pebble Beach to shop or have a cup of coffee or soft drink. The guide was very knowledgable about the area and the movies.

My husband and I had a lot of fun touring the area with Doug as our tour guide.

We learned so much about the movies filmed in Monterey and enjoyed the film clips. The time on the tour went too fast. We were impressed with the Lodge at Pebble Beach Golf Course and even had time to sit and have a drink before getting back on thebus. The owner was our tour guide and he was awesome.

This was my second time to take the tour. I brought a friend as a gift for her birthday. The tour was as good as, if not better than, the first time I took it, as we had gorgeous weather which added to the beautiful scenery. It was a great birthday gift for my friend who absolutely loved it and can't wait to bring her husband. Doug was such a nice guy - entertaining and very informative. He chatted, but not incessantly, knowing just when to be quiet. Being able to see a scene from a movie on the screen in the bus and drive by where it was actually filmed was such fun. All in all, it was a great tour and a great way to spend the afternoon.

Took a friend from southern California. Have told at least 3 friends since the tour how great it was. But, you must be at least 40 or older, I belive, to enjoy the tour. Young people would not know the stars the driver is speaking about.

enjoyed the drive and information our guide gave us

We loved the movie tour, and learned many new facts about local movies that we didn't know before. Although we enjoy the Del Monte Lodge at Pebble Beach, we thought the stay there was a bit long, and cut into what we otherwise could have viewed. We also love A Summer Place, but perhaps too many of the sites we viewed were from that movie. We would have liked to have seen more of films made in Pebble Beach and Carmel Highlands like Play Misty for Me, and some additional clips of movies made locally at sites where you can't drive in.

It's really fun to watch the movie scenes while at the exact site where they were filmed. Doug's knowledge of the area and the movie industry makes it so much more interesting. The beauty of the area is a bonus!

As a world-weary cynical Brit, I would normally run screaming from a guided bus tour, prefering root-canal treatment, but the film link and my love of Clint Eastwood films encouraged be to put my cynicism to one side and climb aboard Doug Lumsden's brightly painted bus. Doug is an entertaining character and a convivial host, his tour is really interesting, and Doug a mine of knowledge and trivia. I particularly liked the moments when you can see the film clip, and actual location at the same time. I would thoroughly recommend this tour, and that is a rare statement from this cynical Brit.
