Ben at California Pacific Tours was informative and super responsive as he helped plan our trip via phone, text and email. Ben and my family mapped out a rough itinerary in advance for our family group of 6. The day of our tour, Carlos picked us up at our vacation rental in Watsonville. We knew in general terms what we were hoping to see, but we asked Carlos for his recommendations as the tour progressed. Carlos incorporated Point Lobos at our specific request, and then gave us an overview of upcoming areas of interest. We could pick and choose our stops as the day progressed. Carlos knew things like the ease or difficulty of trails, what we should look for on the trails, approximate price range in shops and restaurants, and even where the cleanest bathrooms are. Carlos suggested stops at several places we would have missed had we driven the route on our own (McWay Falls and Pfeiffer Beach among others). All of the stops we made were well worth experiencing. With my mom being a senior, we needed to know what to expect as far as walking to and from view sites. Some view sites require no walking, but where there are trails, Carlos told us in advance what to expect so we could decide. Most times we were dropped off at the door or trail entrance, which made things nice. We consider this tour a top highlight of our Monterey trip. Highly recommend to other travelers. Thanks Ben & Carlos.
