If I could give this operator negative stars, I would. I was looking for a nice eco-tour for my daughter. I found one this company and it sounded great. I bought tickets for two adults, since the website indicated that you don't need tickets for children under 4 years old. Cheri from OC Wildlife & Beach Tour suddenly took a... More

In response to this review, this reviewer has never bought tickets and has never been on any of our tours. A person should not be allowed to review us when they have not been on any of our tours. This reviewer rated us negatively because she wanted a free tour for her 3 year old daughter. Our website does not... More

We signed up for a tour of local tide pools and a marine mammal rehab center in Laguna. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the tour is a small group tour. Cheri picked us up in a nearly new minivan to begin our 4 hour tour. Water and granola bars were provided. Cheri took us to several scenic spots... More

We enjoyed an amazing time on the Bay Road at Newport Beach - new varieties of birds at every stop [and we'eve been birding for many years]. Our guide, Sherrie, was quick to spot and help identify new species. After birding we visited a seal recovery center and had a "behind the scenes" view of several seals and the center's... More

We were the only people on the tour and they did not cancel it. Very personalized service and knew all the best spots. Definitely recommend.

Great tour of the Orange County Coast. This was such a nice way to see the beautiful Coastline of Laguna Beach. We had a great lunch and Cheri our tour guide was VERY informative. We covered several miles in Laguna Beach that we would never have been able to walk or see without having the tour bus available to us.... More

This tour has potential to be a good outing covering southern California costal areas. However, the tour is way over priced for what you recieved. The tour lasted 4 hours but in reality you're stuck in a vehicle for over half of that time. Second, the behind the seen tour of the seal rehabilitation center was hardly "behind the seen".... More

First of all, the idea of going on this tour was a last minute decision. It was the day before we were heading home after being in the Southern California area for two weeks. We were all tired from Disneyland, Las Vegas, and another tour we had gone on a couple of days before. Although those other places were tons... More

I went on this tour with my two children, ages 4 1/2 and 9. What an experience! Cheri was able to take us to places that we would have never known about. The part my kids really loved was the tide pools. Bring sturdy, water-proof shoes (the rocks are rough)and you will have an unforgettable experience. We saw countless mussels,... More

I really enjoyed this tour. Cheri knew her stuff, was relaxed and interesting. The pace of the tour was relaxed. I especially loved the tidal pool and seeing all the marine life pointed out for me. We visited a refuge center for seals that was a unique experience. My only problem: my camera battery wasn't charged and I couldn't take... More

This was the single highlight of my recent trip to California. I am so happy we went on this tour as it was EXCELLENT. Cheri did a fantastic job and was well informed on all that we saw. The visit to the marine wildlife santuary was so educational and the tour of the tidal pools and beaches was just breathtaking.... More
