Bre was our tour guide and she is fantastic! She is so knowledgable about the history and took the time to answer every question my husband and I had. We were very interested to hear what living on Catalina Island is like. Her passion for the island is very apparent and we enjoyed getting to learn more about Catalina and talk with a local. The tour was a great pace, detailed, and didn't feel rushed or drawn out. My husband and I both agreed this was the best tour we took while we were there. 5 stars and would recommend to anyone who wants to learn about the history and how locals live on the island.
