Our tour guide Monica was extremely knowledgeable and a great storyteller. She also actively engaged the participants. Our teenage granddaughter begrudgingly joined us on the tour. At the end she said it was the best tour she had ever been on.

We enjoyed our tour of Carmel. Monica provided us with lots of interesting history and showed us the neat little alley ways that we were not aware of. She kept the tour interesting.

An amazing lady who told Carmel’s unique and exciting story with compassion. She took us to places we would have missed if she hadn't shown us

My wife and I were grateful to have Monica H. all by ourself. What an incredible wealth of historical knowledge. She literally wrote the Carmel history book!!! We had such a memorable time learning about the history from someone who not only has lived in the area for many years but also personally knew many of the residents…There were tidbits of history only Monica could share. We would highly recommend you taking this tour upon arrival. Thank you for great memories Monica!!

5 stars! Monica was a fantastic tour guide. My mom and I were lucky enough to have her all to ourselves, and she gave us such a special experience. She showed us not only the main highlights but also the hidden corners of Carmel that we never would have found on our own. Her knowledge of the city is impressive, and her love for it is contagious. I highly recommend booking a tour with Monica. Thank you for such a memorable day!

Wonderful introduction to Carmel By The Sea. We learned about the history and backstory of the area and several of the buildings. Carmel has so many little alleys to explore and we discovered many of these on this tour. We took the tour our first day in Carmel and it enhanced the rest of our trip. I would highly recommend this tour!

Our guide was very knowledgeable. She wrote a book on Carmel history. Saw many interesting places that were out of the way and that we would not have seen on our own.

This was a great walking tour. We enjoyed learning the history of Carmel and seeing different architectural sites. The group was about 12. The timing at each location was good, the walk was not racing, we learned new things. I would recommend this tour.
