    Well planned trip and the crew is very experienced. I took one star off because I got seasick so it is not really their fault. We saw whales, otters, birds, seals/sea lions and lots of dolphins.

    Amazing once in a lifetime experience today on the boat with Captain Danny, Isaiah, and Andrew. 10/10 would recommend you book this trip. I will be back!

    So we did see whales. When we checked in Keith said there were swells! Holy cow I wasn't even aware of what that could mean. But I would go again maybe in the summer. My grandson wants to go so I would go with him.
    I can recommend them.

    I do not have enough superlatives for this tour. It was above and beyond any expectations. Our guide Joaquin (Five stars!) was informative and adaptive. There were so many breathtaking sites on this route it’s hard to pick a favorite. This tour is truly the best way to experience this area and gain local insights. The bikes are easy to adapt to so that any inclines are not a barrier. Most of the terrain is level bike paths. Strongly recommend. Best part of our visit.

    The only concern is that the 17 mile along the ocean could not occur because of a golf tournament. We were unaware of this until we were on the bus; and no financial rebate was made available to us; even though that part of the tour was a major reason for taking paying for this tour. The driver was funny and good.

    Great experience, excellent and knowledgeable guiding, more whales and other sea life than we expected, very intense encounters due to the perfect size of the boat! We will come again and strongly recommend Discovery Whale Watch to everyone.

    Carlos was our driver for the day, and it was an incredible day from start to finish. He picked us up from the Inn we stayed at in Carmel and we were able to see everything Carmel, Monterey, and Big Sur had to offer. This was my 2nd trip to the area, but I was able to see and experience so much more with Carlos as our trusted guide. Having someone with local knowledge who ensured we have the best experience was PRICELESS, and he was friendly, personable and fun. This was my mom's first trip to the area, and she loves finding sea glass. Carlos was even able to recommend and take her to a beach where she walked away with some great finds! We both had an amazing time. FIVE-STAR-REVIEW for Carlos, Ben and others who helped make this trip a success. I would book again in the future and recommend to others.

    It's a great trip but incredibly long. Luckily we had Hao who is an excellent driver who knows the area well and made the trip enjoyable.

    Be prepared for a full day of driving. The many stops along the way were both breath-taking and needed to break up the drive, but you sure get to see all the gorgeous spots along Highway 1. The guide was interesting and had a great play list of California music for you to listen to as he drove. With only an hour and a half in Monterey, not sure the Aquarium is really doable.

    The drive down the coast and pebble beach were the definite highlights. The knowledgeable driver was nice but the bus could use a little updating and/or upgrades. At times, it was uncomfortably hot and the one speaker that worked happened to be above my head. Since there is really not enough time to visit the aquarium in Monterey, consider extending the time in Caramel and decreasing the time in Monterey.

    I thought the audio was great! I wished it had a bit more detail about each landmark though. The descriptions are all about 1-3 mins long. There were a lot of times of silence or times I wanted more information on a landmark.

    Sea car tours are great! The virtual tour guide is very efficient. Would be nice if it could reroute the map for you. All cars to be upgraded soon and I can’t wait!!

    Steve was a great tour guide and taught us so much about the area. He curated a great selection of wineries and the bus was so beautiful. Would highly recommend!!!

    This was a very fun way to explore 17 Mile Drive. The app worked well but due to traffic it was sometimes impossible to go the speed limit to keep it on track. Good info and hit all the key spots. Would be cool to hear more history and stories built in.
