Enjoy stunning views of the Pacific on your way from the Bay Area to Monterey.
On the way there, we can pass by the Headquarters of Silicon Valley's most prominent companies: Oracle, Facebook, Google, and Apple.
Visit Monterey, the old capital of Alta California under both Spain and Mexico, where in 1846, the U.S. flag was raised, and California became part of the US. Monterey's present-day attractions include the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf, and Salvator Dali Expo.
Take a scenic 17-Mile Drive through Pebble Beach and Pacific Grove, connecting Monterey with Carmel, much of which hugs the Pacific coastline and passes famous golf courses, mansions, and scenic attractions, including the Lone Cypress, Bird Rock, and the 5,300-acre Del Monte Forest of Monterey Cypress trees.
Visit Carmel by the Sea, known for its natural scenery and rich artistic history, beautiful beaches, great restaurants, and shopping where the Mission San Carlos Borroméo was founded.
