Overview

Explore Malibu with its 21 miles of famous coastlines. Start the day driving up to the Malibu's most pristine beaches, including the wild cliffs of El Matador beach. Returning, we'll stop at Point Dume Natural Preserve with its stunning Ocean view and at an ocean park with panoramic views where whales and dolphins can be spotted (only Dec-Marc). Following, we'll explore the Malibu Colony, with its coveted ocean access and beach-side mansions. We’ll walk (recent erosion has carried away part of the beach.) along the semi-private beach enjoyed by the many celebrities who live in the Colony: Tom Hanks, Woody Harrelson and Bill Murray, among others. Then we will go to the Adamson house, (inside house tour not included) the first beach mansions in Malibu and its stunning architecture and location. At the end of the tour we can drop you at the world famous Getty Villa Museum, a replica of a Roman Mansion of 2000 years ago or at Venice Beach. TIP at the end of the tour is highly suggested.
