great trip good value for money, had a great driver called Brendan who gave us loads of interesting info nice harbour cruise included to see the stars homes
Enoyed it tremendously.
It was a very good tour. We spent the right amount of time at each place. It was something different to experience from Anaheim. The bus driver was South African and made the tour with his jokes.
We loved Newport Beach and the boat trip round the harbor. This was the reason for us to take the trip as we had never heard of the program O.C. We would have preferred more time at Newport Beach at lunchtime and less time at Fashion Island.
I loved Newport beach and the harbour cruise. I wanted more time at the beach and less time at Fashion Island- 3 hours there was way too long.
I think this trip is worth while for two reasons: 1) there is a palm reader down by the water where you catch the boat who's pretty cool, and 2) going to Fashion Show Mall. The boat ride is cool, seeing all the houses and who the belonged to, but there's not much to do with the OC show, just a few locations. It could use some more OC content that's for sure.
We didn't enjoy this tour at all, they left you at Fashion Island for more than 3 hours - crazy! We wanted to see more of Orange County. Also this tour is way too expensive. Definitely not worth it.
Didn't see anything good. Tour guide was just a bus driver that mumbled and didn't know anything!! Was very disappointed!!!
Although we had a terrific driver for this tour it certainly did not offer the O.C. Experience as per the US TV show which all of the passengers on tour were expecting. The driver was informative as far as real estate and information on Orange County itself as he was a local but you can imagine the disappointment of our 15 year old daughter, an absolute avid OC fan, and her newfound friends from Canada and Australia on the tour. The driver didn't even know what a Balboa Bar was for goodness sake! Anyone and everyone who has watched the OC knows what a Balboa Bar is! Needless to say the drive now knows, so we managed to educate a local on what the stars of the show rave about and offer to visitors of the OC e.g. Ryan to Teresa in Season 1. The saving grace was meeting a couple of terrific families which made the day enjoyable. For anyone looking to book this tour save yourself the time and money and spend an extra day at Disneyland or other LA activities.
