I booked the tour in the early morning, and got a message from the Viator company that the trip is cancelled RIGHT BEFORE the start time! I had already cancelled all my other plans for this tour, and my whole travel plan was screwed!

BEST 17 -Mile Drive&Carmel&Monterey Day trip from San Francisco by Universal Vision was Spectacular!!! It really is the BEST. The quaint shopping and restaurant areas at each stop were filled with things to do for everyone. The history was interesting. 17 Mile drive is a MUST SEE!!! The stop at Pebble Beach is a special addition. Even more amazing than the sites was our guide Antony Wen. He was prompt for ever meeting point, kind, courteous, friendly and attentive to the needs of all passengers. Antony is incredibly positive making everyone smile. He is very interesting and informative. We couldn’t ask for a better tour guide! He is personable and professional. Antony is the BEST!!! We felt as if we were traveling with a good friend! We highly recommend this trip! Be sure to ask for Antony!!!
