Historic Cannery Row : une visite audioguidée de Monterey de John Steinbeck

Aperçu

This self-guided, self-paced audio walking tour will explore Cannery Row in Monterey California and the surrounding area as well as a number of hotels and historic sites. There's a separate admission charge for entrance to Monterey Bay Aquarium.

On this tour, you'll hear how the area served as the industrial heart of Monterey in the first half of the 1900s. Its seemingly inexhaustible number of Pacific sardine attracted fishermen, investors and inventors from around the world seeking their fortune. But, (spoiler alert!) overfishing would decimate the industry by the 1950s.

You will also discover the connection between John Steinbeck and this area as you meet some of the colorful characters that were immortalized in his novel Cannery Row and its sequel Sweet Thursday. Finally, you'll discover the incredible story of how Cannery Row quite literally rose from the ashes to what is now a welcoming waterfront of world-class hotels, wine rooms, restaurants and shopping opportunities.

I’m not one for aimlessly walking through tourist shops when I go to a new place. I like to learn about the history and culture. This self paced tour was great! I liked that I could go at my own pace and spend my time as I like to rather than being tied to a group with a leader I have to struggle to hear. The app was easy to use and gave great directions. My only hiccup was that is used all my phone battery… so bring along a portable charger and you will be set. I’m taking another tour tomorrow!

This was my second tour from this team, and I'm super impressed by the deep knowledge of the area. It was so fun to do this walking tour with my husband (the perfect socially distant summer activity) and learn about the area we were visiting!

What a great idea. I'm a bit of a history buff and came away very impressed with this author's knowledge of the area. The tour was a fun and economical way to get to know a bit about the history of Cannery Row and it's influence on the works of John Steinbeck. I highly recommend this tour. Where else can you get so much information while seeing the sites and getting a bit of "socially distanced" exercise? Look forward to checking out more of her tours. Two big "Thumbs up"!
