Beautiful Sunset and Informative tour!
We had a great time. Carlie & Gilberto were great tour guides. It was great to see the beautiful sunset and interior of the island. Carlie provided really interesting facts and history of Catalina. We even saw a momma fox and her cubs! The roads are a bit rough but it is worth it to see the top of the island and sunset!

Wonderful experience with fantastic views
Tour gave historical facts about the island and took us to a gorgeous lookout spot where we had 10-15 minutes to take pictures. Bring a sweater as it gets chilly.

Amazing views!
Rough ride but fun! Amazing views! Both driver and tour guide were friendly and informative. Worth the trip - parts of the island not everyone gets to see with a golf cart.
