This is a nice way to get an overall narrated tour of the city from the comfort of an open air bus. It's a great value and you will see and learn a lot about the island.

What a fabulous way to start our visit to Catalina! The tour of Avalon was very informative with wonderful picturesque stops, great history, many facts of island life, and our guide Cindy was both funny and charming as she shared her love for the island and the company she works for (even pointing out the main boss as we passed him on the street!) All in all, a lovely personable introduction to the Island! Don't miss it!
