The length of the tour, 3 hrs, was just right. We had a small group and I think this added to the detail in the commentary we got from the host Relied heavily on one movie, would like to have seen a greater variety My expectations for entertainment were exceeded. My wife and I highly recommend this method of viewing an unfamiliar city. Certainly allowed us to decide, in 3 hrs, where we wanted to come back and spend time The host was very clear in what were facts about the locations and quickly let us know if our questions involved unsubstantiated material; really appreciated this

I took two International high school students with me to enjoy this tour of Monterey. We all did. The driver (and owner) was great - very enjoyable! Would highly recommend! Will do it again with my niece who is into HOLLYWOOD and THE MOVIES.

This is a great tour whether you know the area well or not. In addition to the movie locations you get a conducted tour of the Monterey/Carmel/17-Mile-Drive area. The bus is comfortable, the owner, Doug, is knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The idea of showing movie sequences on the video screens just as the bus arrives at the location is brilliant. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone with even a passing interest in the movie locations. A really fun afternoon and good value for money.

This was a very well thought out tour. The owner takes great pride in delighting his tourist with accurate information and operates rain or shine! Being a D.J. his voice is so soothing to listen to for 3 hours, the vidoe clips on the tv monitors are terrific and the timing of the drive,vidoes, and outside visuals very well timed. Impossible not to enjoy this tour!

Nice Educational 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.

We loved the tour.It was as good as we had hoped. The stop at Pebble Beach and walk through the Lodge to the 18th green was a plus to us. The pictures we took were fantastic. There were only 4 of us on the tour because a large group had a bus break-down and could not make it but the tour operator made it extra special for us instead of cancelling . I have been wanting to see this area for most of my life and this was a perfect way to get an overall view of Monterey, Pacific Grove and Carmel. We were able to get an idea of the areas we wanted to re-visit later on our own.

We had a very enjoyable time on the movie tour. It was interesting and professionally done. It was fun to learn about the movies and the behind-the-scenes facts. It was relaxing and the scenery was beautiful.

We are locals and assumed it would be pretty difficult to impress us, but we were amazed. We found the tour to be very comprehensive. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

The tour was great! The driver was knowledgeable and interesting. Got to see lots of places we would have missed otherwise. We recommended this tour to a Monterey businessman.
