Our guide was the very best, from parking at her home to the 50+ years of experience in the park. She knew everything, this was not a firm 2 hour tour....it was complete when it was complete. This was the highlight of our trip.....she could charge triple the fee and it would still be under priced.

Monica is the perfect guide to this park that is rich in nature, beauty and history! So fun to view through her scope the basking seals & a mother otter and her baby! Worth it, including a private spot to park. Do NOT wear shorts, even if it’s hot out. You’ll learn why. We will be doing it again!

Monica was an outstanding guide! She shared her wealth of knowledge with us about the beautiful Point Lobos area. She made the hike enjoyable in every way. She brought her binoculars so we could see coastal wildlife (including Harbour seals and sea lions) and shared so much about the rich history of this special land and seascape. I cannot recommend this highly enough!

This tour was incredibly fun and Monica is a wonderful guide! She is very friendly and welcoming and really engages with each person on her tour. It was a true hike, so there was a little bit of uneven terrain, but it wasn't too bad and mostly very easy to traverse. I highly recommend taking this walk!
