We had an amazing time. We have been to Monterey probably over 100 times and learned so much about the history. Valerie was our guide and we loved her. She was very knowledgeable and can tell she loved the area as well.

Sonya, our guide was great! Very knowledgable about Monterey history and we toured areas of the town we'd never been to before. We had a nice variety of great food and beverages. Met some nice people on the tour too.

Highly Recommend!

Sonja was wonderful. She was personable, interesting, and had a nice sense of humor. She was knowledgeable about the area and had fun facts about Monterey history. The food was super delicious. Every stop was notably interesting. The grounds behind the avocado toast bakery were like a secret garden. Highly recommend!
