It was such a well curated tour. We had drinks, small plates and were able to see so many hot spots in Cabo. Highly recommend this tour!

I had an amazing girls' trip at the W Hotel in Hollywood, Los Angeles! From the vibrant lobby to the stunning views from our room, everything was exceptional. The modern and luxurious decor made our stay incredibly comfortable. The rooftop pool and bar were definite highlights. Relaxing in the cabanas while taking in the panoramic city views was pure bliss. The central location allowed us to easily explore Hollywood's iconic attractions on foot. What truly set the W Hotel apart was the outstanding service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and catered to our every need. From dining recommendations to personalized touches, their attention to detail was remarkable. In a nutshell, my stay at the W Hotel was a fantastic experience. Luxurious accommodations, breathtaking views, and exceptional service combined to create the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable trip. I can't wait to return!

Wonderful tour. The weather was a little cold but other than that everything was perfect. Our tour guide was very good and knowledgeable about the island.

The tour was canceled, and we were not notified. I would not use this vendor. They deserve zero stars.

This was a great way to experience Catalina Island. It was difficult knowing where to go for the Discover Avalon tour once we arrived. We eventually located the meeting point and enjoyed all the views.

We took the Catalina Ferry to the island. We noticed immediately that at least 95% of the people there were not wearing masks. To add to the concerns, cruise ships came in 2 out of our 4 days there and tons of people added to the already small spaces of the town. It is a lovely place with lots to do....but my husband and I both had covid diagnosed within a day of our return. The hotels are trying...but restaurants, venues, and everywhere you go are people unmasked. It's a great place if you've already had covid or don't mind getting it!!! Avalon is beautiful lovely.

It was very expensive for what ended up being a 40 minute tour of the island. We didn’t know we were given classes of seats on the way there and back so we waited in the wrong line in the rain. And our return driver was stoned. Would not recommend for the price.

It was a great trip totally worth it. Just wish we had more time. Didn't get enough time to spend on the island. Want to expand the time on the island to make the trip worth it.

The transportation from our hotel was fine. He came early and we had to rush, then got to the terminal very early. The ferry ride was nice. The town of Avalon was beautiful. The tour around town was nice but it was scheduled for the middle of the day. We would prefer to take the tour as soon as we arrived so we knew where we wanted to go. We also were told that we would be leaving around 5:30 when I booked the tour, but ended up having to take the 3:55 ferry and didn’t have enough time in Avalon. When I tried to call for information during the day, the operators didn’t understand what I was asking or have information about the trip I was on. Overall not the best experience.

Ferry ride to a near-magical island. So rich in history and just breathtaking. My adult son and I had a wonderful tour of the beautiful Avalon and then toured the rest of the island with a golf cart we rented. So much to do there!
