This was the highlight of our trip! Art was extremely knowledgeable having been raised on Catalina. He was also accommodating and a lot of fun! The vistas and history were exactly what we were looking for in this tour. This is a great way to get a feel for the island and people. We were sad when it ended!

A wonderful, very in-depth tour of the island in a very comfortable golf cart. There were 5 of us and we were treated to a great time and learned so, so much information about the beautiful island of Catalina. Our tour guide, Dudley, made the whole experience a true delight!

Janice (sp) was our guide who turned out to be a long-term resident of the Island and her husband is a native - so her knowledge of Catalina was deep and lead to a thorough and informative tour. Just perfect - highly recommended!!

Letty was the perfect tour guide for our group of 4 friends visiting Catalina Island for the second time. We were hoping for a casual and knowledgeable guide and she delivered - with great humor, too! She was readily able to answer each question along our trip and we learned so much of the island’s history, culture and architecture. She stopped at some great spots for photos and gave wonderful advice for where to grab a bite to eat. A lovely tour all around and we’d heartily recommend.
