This beautiful seaside Mediterranean-style town offers a wide selection of distinctive boutiques, restaurants, parks, cafés, and unique art galleries.

I loved everything about the tour from the bus when it’s glass roof to the safe driving by our guide James, and his amazing stories on the tour to the beautiful and easy walk through Muir Woods. 10 out of 10 would do again. Very accessible tour for all fitness levels in ages.

Our driver was Patrick. He was funny, a lot of fun, and very informative on the ride to and from Muir Woods. We really enjoyed the whole tour. The redwood trees were HUGE, and beautiful, and I wanted to take home some seedlings, but the gift shop there didn't sell any. But I think my neighbors would be unhappy having such huge trees near their property, even though they'd be gorgeous.
