An enjoyable day riding along the coast to the Big Sur area. Made many stops with views of the beautiful Pacific Ocean. Went thru quaint towns. Fred was great. Knowledgeable and personable. Weather was perfect.

Marciano was a wonderful driver. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip down the coast even if the weather wasn’t 100% cooperative. The Bixby Bridge was well worth the extra effort even if it was raining! We also really enjoyed our tour of the Carmel beach- houses and gardens were beautiful.

This tour is the perfect way to see the coast. Marciano was a wonderful guide with tons of knowledge and recommendations. Highly recommend!

Our tour with Dingo Tours was excellent! Our group consisted of my wife and I and our three 16-year old boys. Our tour guide, Marciano, picked us up at our hotel right on time. He was polite and well spoken and did an outstanding job driving and informing us of all sorts of interesting information along the way. The sights we saw were breathtaking! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has a day to spare while visiting San Francisco! We got back into the city after a full day of sightseeing around dinner time and Marciano was polite enough to drop us off at Fisherman’s Wharf so we could grab dinner without having to go back to the hotel. All in all a great way to spend a vacation day!

What a great experience with Fred! He picked us up at our hotel in San Francisco and we drove down to Monterrey, pebble beach and Carmel. We had time to explore what we wanted to do and he suggested places we didn’t think of. He is s such a nice and genuine guy which just made our experience that much better. Next time we are back we will have him take us to Napa. We highly recommend Dingo Tours!!

How lucky we were to find Dingo Tour and our guide Fred. We took a private tour as a family. He was able to provide information, sightseeing ,and a wonderful day exploring all that we wanted in addition to several surprises such as seals on the beach and a lighthouse at sunset.

Wow and Wow This is the way to go with Fred for a private tour of Monterey, 17 mile Drive, Carmel and Big Sur. All the group tours had way too long of a stop in Monterey so we opted for building our own tour and we weren't disappointed, This way we were able to see it all. Fred was an excellent driver and we were very happy going the private tour route.

My husband and I are first time visitors to CA and Marciano treated us like royalty on our visit to Big Sur, Carmel, and Monterey! First off, in this time of COVID-19 this is a perfect private tour for those who want to explore the scenery down the Pacific Coast Highway. Our first rest stop (I believe in Santa Clara) had a little food shop. I highly recommend the warm banana nut bread. Marciano was a very attentive guide and even made an unscheduled stop at Pacific Grove. The coastline contained pinkish-purple flowers and the views were stunning! Monterey was a great stop with a walk along the pier where you can hear the seals in the water. I even picked up inexpensive hand crafted jewelry from one of the outside vendors. The town of Carmel was very quaint and the beaches lovely with the bluest water I’ve seen thus far! The views from Bixby Bridge is worth the price of admission! Marciano was the best! He guided us along the way, and was an expert on taking panoramic pictures! I want to also thank Ed who was very responsive in answering all my questions. I highly recommend this tour!

Fred did an amazing job all day. Our party were my 2 kids, 13/9, 70 yo dad, my wife and I. He was very informative and made the trip top level. We thought about driving ourselves but Fred knew every stop, every photo op, every bathroom, etc. Lunch suggestions in Carmel, no parking hassle. Very laid back yet thorough. I can’t say enough about how spectacular the day was and I would use him again vs driving myself.
