I went with my friends for the weekend to Catalina. We weren't planning on taking a tour of the Casino but we are SO glad we did !!! There is SO much rich history behind the Casino and the Island itself that we did not expect. We took the 40 min tour and it was terrific... enhanced by our outstanding (and enthusiastic) guide, Rebecca !! So worth the money and time !!

Loved the history of the beautiful casino. Rebecca our lovely guide brought us back in time to envision what it would be like to dance the night away on Catalina Island.

We did the behind the scenes tour with Frankie and it was so fun and informative. We learned so much about the history of the Casino and the Island itself. It was liking stepping back in time. He even included a dance lesson in the beautiful ballroom! Would highly recommend this tour.
