Bike trip was amazing. Our tour guide Alex was wonderful and very knowledgeable of the marine life on our trip. On another note, this bike shop was amazing. We originally scheduled the tour on a different date but due to rainy weather coming in, they were very accommodating and changed our time to an earlier day. Can’t thank them enough.

Went in the morning on a beautiful cool December morning. The views are incredible and well worth the price of admission. Stops at pebble beach and Lone Cyprus are a must. One note if you come in from the North (Pacific Grove) entrance. You enter through a neighborhood which we got lost in and was difficult to navigate at first. Enter from the south if you are able.

This is our 4th or 5th time, I think, taking the drive. Even when the weather was at times miserable, the drive is mesmerizing. Some parts are just beautiful. Other are magical. I can't remember all the names of the stops right now, but one spot that sticks in my mind is the one where your see the lone tree that is the symbol for the development. It's just so neat. If you look at the pictures on the net, like all pictures of nature, they cannot do it justice, but they will give you an idea, maybe whet your appetitie. The coast from Monterey through Pacific Grove on to Carmel then Big Sur and then Ragged Point all the way to Hearst Castle is one of the greatest drives you can take. The only one that can compare, in my opinion, in beauty and grandeur, is Route 12 from Torrey, Utah to Bryce Canyon NP, the whole enchilada. They are drives you will remember for the rest of your life. If you value your life, don't take Route 12 unless the weather is perfect. If you take it, you will know what I mean. Happy driving.

Did the drive on a beautiful sunny day. Stopped at Pebble Beach for an outdoor lunch. This a wonderful half day stop over on our Pacific Coast Hway drive from San Francisco to San Diego.

We have done this drive several times while staying in the Monterey area. It never fails to be the most beautiful drive in California. We were able to see whales migrating on this trip while pulling over to some of the areas on the drive. The Ocean was calm and the weather was perfect. We were able to see several deer also. One of my very favorite spots

Beautiful relaxing time on the 17 Mile Drive. Cost is $11.75 per car but very much well worth the cost. Follow the red dashed path and see stunning shorelines, birds, gold courses and phenomenal mansions. You do not want to rush this drive, take the time to stop and take it all in. We caught the sunset at the Lone Cypress; AMAZING!! There are restrooms at stops 7 (Bird Rock) and 17 (Pebble Beach Visitor Center). Small Convenience Store at the Visitor Center as well. Highly recommend and would do this drive again. Plan at least a couple hours depending on time of year. High season be prepared for lots of traffic.

The sky was leaden and the wind blustering the day we drove the famous 17-Mle-Drive, which made us glad that the way to see it is to drive from lookout point to lookout point. And the threatening weather did not detract from the beauty of the drive in the least. I don't remember how many stops there are exactly, but our favorites were Bird Rock, where we tarried for several minutes watching gulls, cormorants, pelicans and more circling the rock and taking turns taking off and landing at its highest point; Restless Seas, a very interesting spot where prevailing currents come in from 2 different directions and meet, causing to waves to push up and break over one another; and of course Lone Cypress, which is as enigmatic in real life as it is in paintings and photos. Although it is not really alone- a line of cypress lead to the promontory on which it stands. On the day we were there Seal Rock was unfortunately not occupied, nor did we see any passing whales which are often spotted. Guess we'll have to visit again. Give yourself time to drive slowly and spend a little while enjoying each spot; each has something to recommend it. If you are not a resident or guest in the area, it costs about $10 per car to take the drive, but it's worth it.

This was recommended as something to do whilst in Carmel and it didn’t disappoint. There are some amazing views along the way and we even saw a whale! The Pebble Beach stop was a little disappointing and the snacks we bought were not cheap. However, overall it was really worth doing and a great way to spend a sunny afternoon.

We thoroughly enjoyed this drive even though it was a foggy day . The drive is clearly marked with 17 stops( a few were not along the coast but pebble beach visitor center and pebble beach golf and equestrian center which we didn’t stop at. Two of the points were also closed while we visited due to seal pup season so I’d say there were 12 stops still well worth the $11.25

If you are a golf fan, this is definitely worth the trip. If you're mostly interested in picturesque ocean views, I think that Point Lobos is far better. April - June is seal pupping season (didn't know this beforehand) so several of the sites where you might normally see wildlife are closed off / you can't stop.
