An excellent tour and in Richard, an excellent guide. However, you do need a little stamina - leaving Los Angeles at 06.30 and not arriving in San Francisco until 21.30 on day one is a very long and tiring day. Lots of interesting stops on the way but over 400 miles is quite a ride. Day two in San Francisco is great - a beautiful City with many cultural and stunning scenery visits. Day three in Yosemite was beautiful.

The trip was okay, and indeed the Hearst Castle was amazing. But the whole tour experience would be much better if we could visit the places on the other way around: first at the Hearst Castle, then Solvang and finally to Santa Barbara. Because we arrived too early in the morning, neither in Santa Barbara nor in Solvang we could not enjoy the city very much. For instance, the mission church was still closed and we could not enter the inside, all the wine tasting place in Solvang was not open yet...

Hearst Castle was spectacular - unfortunately not enough time allotted to see it properly. Although the drivers were friendly, informative, and very nice, they both drove way too fast and maniacly!. We would not take this tour again because of the driving nor recommend it.. The tour started off on the wrong foot - as we were forgotten at our hotel, even though we confirmed two days' prior per the instructions on the E-ticket. Someone had to come and get us and bring us to the Tour Driver in Santa Barbara - hence the crazy driving - and then it continued perhaps beause of the time lost. We are upset because we were to be picked up at the Hotel as listed at 7:00AM, so we booked a room at this hotel the night before due to the early pick-up, oherwise we could have driven from Riverisde in the morning and saved some $$$. We have booked with Viator before and that is why we booked again. But this time, it was very disappoint.

I and my wife enjoyed the spectacular views of the highway 1 of the pacific coast. We enjoyed the scenes of Santa Brabara, Solvang Village, The cruise around the The Alcatraz, Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco and the Hearst Castle in our way back. I certainly recommend this trip.

the trip has become exclusive, it was me and my husband and our tour guide Michael, who took his time showing us the best side of San Diego! If I get another chance I would definately do this tour again 3

Best trip ever!!!! Great guide, lots of knowledge, very accommodating. Was surprised that the entire group was only two of us. Actually it became a private tour.
Thanks Khava

Wonderful day out. Our guide even gave us extra time on The Queen Mary. This is the one to experience the differences in beach culture in LA. Venice beach is a real eye opener-not to be missed. Great commentary and guide would fully recommend.
