Carmel By The Sea - Monica was incredibly informative, with a tremendous amount of knowledge, then you add to that her sense of humor. That makes for one of the best guide I have experienced.

A great way to see more than shops & restaurants - We’ve been to Carmel many times so decided it was time to learn the history and we had a lovely afternoon with our guide Monica. Her stories and back alley walks were so interesting! Highly recommend this tour. She also is the author of the Carmel history book so you can trust she knows what she’s talking about.

Best Tour Ever - Our group thoroughly enjoyed Monica and all the stories and history of Carmel and the area. We’ve been many times to Carmel but discovered so many new places and learned so much. Monica made it come alive and was able to tailor the tour to our interests. We were extra fortunate that our group was the only tourists on this tour that day, but I’m sure she could manage a larger group with the same great outcome. We enjoyed walking all through town! We have already recommended this tour to friends who are planning to visit the area in the near future and know they will enjoy it and Monica immensely.
