| We enjoyed our visit with the owner Doug and were delighted with his knowledge of both movie trivia and the Monterey/Carmel area. He made it a very pleasant experience and we're sure to recommend to others. |

| This was second tour for this older couple - undertaken to entertain a visitor from Ohio. The second time was just as entertaining and fun as the first, and the Ohio visitor was enormously impressed. I rate this tour as five stars for anyone who has interest in either the wonderful scenery in the vicinity, or/and in old movies. Great tour, great "docent". |

| the Carmel portion was very disappointing - after seeing the scenes we hoped to see the beautiful beach area - i know you are prohibited from taking the bus outside thelimits but it seemed like a poor finale to a great tour. Maybe you should take people to Carmel first - and save the better part of the tour for the last. Also we were not told that we could not go anyplace in carmel - so after seeing the scenes we all expected to drive down to the beach - to go on Junipero out of town as fast as possible was a real disappointment - and we live here!! Imagine what the out of towners felt. Anyway, thanks for an enjoyable 3 hours |

| Our expectations were exceeded. We had the feeling that it was more than just an informative tour but a mission. If you love Monterey, you will love it even more. If you love the movies, you will love them even more. Nothing but respect for the work Scenic Movie Tour of Monterey is doing. Can't always get sunshine but you will always go away with more than you came with. |

| This was my second time on the tour. The first was with a group and I had to do a repeat with my wife. Owner/driver/narrator is oustanding. A beautiful day, marvelous scenery, informative and entertaining. |

| Great tour w/out the stress of driving. Enjoyed the movie clips. Would like to see more updated movies if there are any filmed there but keep the old ones too. |

| Really enjoyed it! The tour showed the areas in Monterey where the movies were filmed and the clips of the movies at the same time. Very informative and fun! |

| 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. |

| My wife and I had a thoroughly enjoyable time on this tour. The owner/tour guide was so very knowledgeable and his wit and humor added tremendously to the tour. We both loved the way he blended the movie clips with the actual scene we were observing out the windows of the bus. We would have driven by these localities without ever once suspecting what had been filmed there. But now we understand how much alive that whole area is in terms of being one big movie set. Since our son, Johnny Messner, is an actor we are a little knowledgeable of how films are made, but this tour really helped us learn so much more.
We would recommend this tour to anyone coming to Monterrey. It was truly the highlight of our week on the peninsula. Thanks so much.
