You won't regret this scenic walk! - This was a PERFECT outdoor excursion for our ladies' weekend in the Carmel/Monterey area. Great balance of walking through nature, learning facts about the area, and pausing for incredible photos with views of shoreline, sea lions, otters, and more. Monica was a delightful guide: knowledgable, friendly, and able to tailor the experience to the group. Having private parking included made it all that much easier. Highly recommend!

Monica is Amazing! - There is not much more I can add to the praise of Monica and her outstanding walk through this beautiful part of CA. It was a very foggy day, so the spectacular views we were hoping to have did not happen; however, it was still a great day due to Monica and her fantastic ability to provide interesting background on the history, geology, botany, pretty much everything! If you are in the area, be sure to book her tour!

An immersive story we will never forget - The scenery on this hike was undeniable, but our guide, Monica, was the true gem, sharing information as a true storyteller, with poignancy and flourish. We would have followed her anywhere, and we now have a memory that is human, humane, as well as pictorial. We highly recommend this tour for everyone.
