On my first visit to Catalina Island I wanted to get an overview more than what I could read on Wikipedia. I was lucky that my tour guide Bri was not only knowledgeable in all areas of the island but lives here, so I got a perspective from a local. I would definitely recommend this walking tour to everyone. Totally well worth it!
