USA · MONTEREY CARMEL AND BIG SUR
3 tours
This is the shortlist we would hand a friend: 3 monterey carmel and big sur tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Monterey Bay whale watching from Fisherman’s Wharf with a biologist guide, hot drinks, and big wildlife chances in 3 to 4 hours.
“Great we saw a lot of whales its really fascinating to see lots of them:)”
Full-day coach trip from San Francisco to Monterey and Carmel, with photo stops and 17-Mile Drive, plus free time in both towns.
“There are beautiful views and the Monterey Aquarium is worth seeing. The heavy, stop-and-go traffic and the numerous short stops at point of little interest made it a very long day. I recommend just 2 short stops where there are decent bathrooms and light food as well as pretty views. 7:30 am - 8 pm is too long for the few points of interest. Even Hwy 101 was slow. How about trip to aquarium and back by freeway and alternate coastline tour?”
3-hour Monterey Bay boat tour from Fisherman's Wharf to spot gray, humpback and killer whales, dolphins, seals, turtles, and more with a guide.
“Great trip on one of the smaller boats. Lauren was very knowledgeable and attentive to all passengers. Great to see whales in their own habitat. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this trip.”
