Your tour starts in Avalon, where you'll meet your driver-guide and hop aboard your Hummer. 

Set off along Pebbly Beach Road, taking in views of the rocky coastline, and start climbing up as you turn onto East End Road. The views continue to get better; if it's a clear day, you might be able to see San Clemente Island in the distance. Next, enjoy a view of Avalon Canyon, and head toward the summit overlook, passing by Wrigley Reservoir.

From the overlook, enjoy a photo op of the leeward side of Catalina Island, the San Pedro Channel, Avalon, and possibly even the mountains of mainland California on a good day. Then head back toward sea level as you drive past the eucalyptus trees of Stagecoach Road to reach Avalon, where your tour ends at the starting point.

It was very scenic but too bumpy and caused several riders to suffer from motion sickness. I was given 4 tickets in error at the ticket booth so please make sure I am only charged for 2.

My wife and I had an amazing experience yesterday on the Ridgetop excursion. Our driver and guide, Cindy, was an exceptional and exciting driver, very knowledgeable on the island history and animals, and was super funny. She played great music, Raiders of the Lost Ark, at the appropriate time. She spotted a Bison in the distance and drove us to take pictures - not part of our excursion. We will share our experience for a long time. Thank you!!
