This tour is unique because the Kearney Mansion is about 70 percent original from when it was first commissioned in 1903 by Martin Theodore Kearney. This tour is not just about Kearney, but it highlights the structure of the mansion, the stories of the families that worked and lived on the Fruit Vale Estate (Kearney Park) and you can enjoy the scenic view of the grounds. The mansion and gallery is located inside of Kearney Park which is filled with palm trees. The park features a lovely olive grove path, disc golf course, and the historic Tea House, Ice House, Carriage House and Bell Tower that is a part of the mansion.

It was January and the park was empty. The park looked like such a great place to visit during the warm weather. The Manson was impressive as we drove up to it and with a little imagination you could picture how it looked with acres and acres of farm land around it. As we looked closer the place does need some TLC. The thing I enjoyed the most was how much authentic everything appeared. Being just after Christmas the place was still decorated for Christmas with numerous tree all over the Manson. Our guard was cheerful and friendly and was just so informative. Really enjoyed our visit.

Location is in a park. It was a nice drive through the park to the mansion. The guide was knowledgeable but I felt rushed through the rooms. I would have liked more time to read the information boards.

The tour exceeded all expectations! The exterior and park weren't very impressive, but seeing the interior and getting all the information is 100% worth it! The Chinese gallery at the end was a nice surprise. I would skip the underground gardens for this. My only complaint however about booking through Viator, is there is no option to select a time, which other sites allow and the staff seems to prefer. The first guy seemed a little confused as it seems people usually don't book the tour through Viator, but I had a bunch of rewards I didn't want to waste again.
