The day spent on this trip was one of the best days of our vacation.The scenery was beautiful and Kenneth, our driver was very informative and entertaining. There are many photo taking opportunities, sufficient breaks are given and enough time is allowed in Monteray to have lunch and explore around some. I would have liked a little more time in Carmel because the Carmel Mission is worth exploring and it also does take awhile to walk to the beach and back but I understand that when the day is already 11 hours long, it would be hard to justify adding in the extra time and you wouldn't want to cut out anything. My husband especially enjoyed the time spent at the Pebble Beach Golf Course.
