The views and the tour operator was outstanding. Also the Blue Water Grill had great food and views despite the rain.
The shuttle service to and from our hotel was prompt and courteous. We picked up our ferry tickets at the terminal and the ride over to the island was nice and we even got to see some dolphins! We opted to do the Discover Avalon tour. In the booking details, it said we would be in a group of no more than 9 but that pertained to the shuttle service. Obviously the ferry had multiple people, but I was surprised that we were on a bus with 15 people. We filled up the bus and the seats were comfy but I didn’t get to see very much because I sat in the back. Our driver Rob was professional albeit full of dad jokes and recommended a good place to eat close by. I wish we had did a golf cart tour on our own. We didn’t get a chance to take any photos outside of the bus. The vistas were beautiful but I only have photos of it with peoples heads in it. If we had at least one stop to take photos outside of the bus I would have given this experience 5 stars but staying on the bus took the magic away from it.
Great experience. The bus ride around with Laura was fantastic and really made the day. The only improvement I can suggest is better communication as we were unsure where the ride started. However for a great day away from the hustle of LA and to have a relaxing day in a pleasant place with lots of eateries this is the place.
Thank you so much for leaving a positive review. You should have received a link to a map with instructions. Looking at the history of the reservation, it shows the email was sent to you. We greatly apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused not knowing where to check in for your tour. We are so happy you enjoyed the great day away from the hustle of LA.
Nice tour into the ocean and island . The tour starts from a place around 15 min drive from Santa Monica. The cruise ship is comfortable and they serve beer and snack. The ride is 1 hour each side . The island is cute , small one and reminds oyih of old days of ships and boats. We also had underwater sea experience where they feed fishes and you will all kinds of fishes at sea bed. Nice food and eateries
