Q&A

Q: What if it rains on the day of the tour? Do they cancel?

A: Typically, the tour operates rain or shine, but if the weather is really bad (like heavy storms), they might reschedule. It's a good idea to check in with Extranomical Tours the day before just to confirm. Also, you might want to bring a light jacket or umbrella just in case! You will definitely want to enjoy the views!

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this tour?

A: There's no strict age limit! Kids of all ages are welcome. They usually have great rates for children, and the aquarium is a big hit with the little ones! Just keep an eye on them during the 17-Mile Drive since some stretches don’t have barriers. It’s super family-friendly overall.

Q: How is the parking situation near Union Square for pickup?

A: Parking can be tricky in Union Square! There are a few garages and street parking, but it fills up fast. I’d suggest arriving early or using public transport if you can. If you can find a garage, expect to pay around $20 for a few hours. Just keep in mind the tour leaves on time, so don’t get caught in traffic!

Thinking of gifting the Monterey tour - any thoughts?

Hey everyone! I'm considering gifting this Monterey, Carmel, and Pacific Coast Explorer tour to my sister's family for Christmas. They love the coast and I think the aquarium would be a hit with the kids. The price is great too! Has anyone done this tour? Any tips or must-see spots along the way?

Monterey tour advice needed!

I’m planning to take my parents on this tour in October. They’re both in their late 60s. Is the pace comfortable for them? Any advice on what to wear?
