What To Expect

Sunset Cultural Center

This is the meeting place for Carmel Food Tours. Look for the tall, Gothic-style arch and huge windows. It looks a little like a church, but it's not. When you descend into the courtyard, which is located EXACTLY at the intersection of 9th & San Carlos, you'll be greeted by your tour guide.

Kimberly was very knowledgeable and was very enthusiastic about sharing some of the things she loved about Carmel (food, people, stories or hidden passages around town). Everything was delicious! Wish I could’ve had more of that olive oil ice-cream ;).

Tracy is a friendly and knowledgeable guide! She not only led us to fabulous food and wine but shared beautiful stories and history of Carmel. The lovely nooks, pathways and secret gardens would have been difficult, of not impossible, to find on our own. Would definitely recommend this tour for locals as well as anyone visiting Carmel.
