My Offer
Hello and welcome to my local host page in Monterey. I was born in Santa Cruz and have been living in Monterey for about 12 years. I'm a retired firefighter and have a lot of local experience I'd be happy to share. I'd love to show you the Monterey Peninsula from a locals stand point of view. I can show you all the local wineries where you can test some of California's best wines. I'd also welcome you to go sailing. I have a boat and I've been sailing for 15 years. I have many hobbies and local connections from surfing and sailing to golf and skydiving and I'm certain you'll have a blast with me. Best of all, you don't need a car with me. I'll gladly drive you around as we enjoy our time together.

Reviews
The hidden gems by Amy

Had a great experience touring the hidden gems of Monterey. James was funny and an excellent guide. It was a rainy morning, so in order to enjoy the ride he delayed the start time about an hour.

The time together was great by Maya

He was perfect with timing, quality, service, everything. The entire time together was great. Starting from the commentary and meeting new people from around the world. Then stopping at different historical places and the best part was the beautiful scenery and photos we took.

Learn things by Dan

I have so many friends who have visited Charleston that I felt I wouldn't see anything new or different from what I've seen in their travel photos but thanks to James, we saw things and learned even my friends who are repeat visitors have not.

The experience was amazing by Melissa

This entire experience was amazing from our first communications online to our meeting and then hanging out. It was a great decision because having a local show us around just made us be able to relax and enjoy ourselves

Amazing time by Brianna

There were 3 of us. We were not expecting this much fun. Our host showed us some really good places to shop and then invited us to a really nice Italian restaurant for dinner. We took a lot of photos and had an amazing time together.
