What to expect

Come along on this tour to trace the beautiful Pacific Coast Highway all the way to Monterey and then on to Carmel-by-the-Sea.

After pick-up from your San Francisco hotel, you’ll head down California State Route 1 toward Monterey along the picturesque Pacific Ocean coastline. Grab a photo with the Pacific Ocean as your backdrop!

As you make your way to Monterey, you'll see that it is a rich and entertaining mix of wildlife, stunning coastal views and important history. Walk in the steps of figures like Grapes of Wrath author John Steinbeck and explore Cannery Row, Old Fisherman’s Wharf and more.

Keep an eye out for the sea otters playing in the waters of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. This underwater park stretches hundreds of miles along the coast from San Francisco to Cambria and is home to hundreds of species of marine mammals, birds, and fish. In

In Monterey, you’ll have two hours of free time to explore. If you want, you can visit the world-famous Monterey Bay Aquarium (not included) or you could take a stroll to Lovers’ Point, check out the many boutiques that line historic Cannery Row or grab a fresh lunch at Old Fisherman’s Wharf.

Back on your tour vehicle, you’ll be treated to more beauty on the 17-Mile Drive. This scenic road winds its way through the Del Monte Forest between magnificent multi-million dollar homes, spectacular coastline and Pebble Beach golf course. Catch a photo of the hardy Lone Cypress Tree.

Don't miss out on this tour!
