    Pep our driver/guide was excellent. We were able to tailor our trip to cover everything we wanted. Monterey, 17 mile drive, a stop off at Carmel and Bixby bridge. Stunning coast line

    We had 2 magical days with Pep ! Day one we toured Silicon Valley,Monterey and Carmel. So interesting to see Apple, Facebook and Google. Then on to Monterey and Carmel. We did Big Sur , then the 17 mile drive passing Pebble Beach stopping for numerous photos taken by Pep. It was an unforgettable day. Day 2 San Francisco and Sausalito. We did a complete city tour then went over the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito where we had lunch overlooking the water. We were able to see so many sights during our private tours that the big tour busses would not be able to get close to. We returned to our ship in plenty of time for our sailing. Highly recommend Pep and Alegro Tours ..

    Carmel is a very nice village, beach in Monterey is very beautiful. Needs to spend more time in both villages.

    Beautiful scenery along CA1. Not so much on 101 or new CA1 bypass. If bringing children be advised this is 10 to 11 hours. We started in Tiburon. From SF it may be shorter. Bring games for kids!
