Carmel-by-the-Sea Highlights: Self-Guided Driving Audio Tour

About this experience

Carmel-by-the-Sea Highlights is a self-guided driving audio tour of Carmel-by-the-Sea, a coastal town roughly two hours south of San Francisco. Founded by writers, painters, poets, and photographers in the early twentieth century, the town retains a distinctive artistic character visible in its galleries, cottage architecture, and landscaped gardens. The tour runs for approximately one hour and is GPS-activated, meaning the audio commentary plays automatically as you drive between points of interest. Narration covers the town's creative heritage, its notable homes and gardens, the lone Monterey pine, and one of the longest white-sand beaches in California. Local insider commentary and guest interviews are included in the audio. Tickets cover lifetime access to the guide in English, which runs on your own phone. The tour begins at 211 Crossroads Blvd and operates at your own pace, with easy pause and play controls. Food, drinks, and transport are not included.
