Highlights
- Topanga Ranch Motel - We meet up and drop off at Topanga State Beach. You can arrive early to enjoy this beautiful, scenic area.
- Broad Beach - Our first stop is north of Point Dume, at this amazing private beach. This location is like no other in the world, with a view of the beautiful coastline, celebrity homes, and the Santa Monica Mountains as the backdrop. You will see surfers, boats, and friendly people as the tour guide does a quick photo shoot of you and your group.
- Point Dume State Beach and Preserve - The northern tip of the Santa Monica Bay is rich in nature and heritage, but is difficult to reach for the average traveler. Cruiseline makes this location easily accessible. We will make a stop here for you to take a walk through the natural preserve over looking the beach. It is very beautiful and serene. This location provides amazing views views of Catalina Island, as you’ll visit the seals inhabiting the beach down below, or an occasional dolphin swimming by.
- Paradise Cove - This private beach resort is the only one of it’s kind along the entire California Coast! You can legally bring your own alcohol and drink right on the beach! There is a long history dating back to the 1940’s when this land was purchased by a small family, who launched boats for local fishermen. Nestled just south of Point Dume, this small cove contains it’s own fishing pier, an awesome seafood restaurant, and private cabanas. It’s a very festive location with amazing scenery.
- Malibu Country Mart - Malibu Country Mart consists of 3 large shopping centers, and a nature preserve. You can go shopping, visit a winery, eat at Broadstreet Oyster Company, or explore the Malibu Lagoon.
- Topanga Beach - South of the Malibu city limits, lies Topanga State Beach. This gritty location provides a very unique assortment of beach, winery, and restaurants. Access tunnel under the highway, rocky tidepools, and longboard surfers are what make this beach so different.
- Rosenthal Wine Bar & Patio - Beachfront winery on Pacific Coast Hwy with a view of Santa Monica Mountains and Topanga Creek. Inside wine bar with large outside patio. Sundays feature live band during spring and summer. Close proximity to beach and restaurants.

Best Malibu Tour - I had family visiting from Chicago that had never been to Malibu and they absolutely loved this tour! Our guide was so friendly and full of information. My boyfriend and I even learned some great tips and secrets we plan to use on our next visit to Malibu. Thank you!

Girl's Weekend Tour! - This was a fabulous tour and the highpoint to our Girl's Weekend! Gavin was so personable and made the tour fun and interesting. We loved the fact that it was scenic, with a bit of history, a bit of "movie stars", a bit of wine and a bit of shopping...something for everyone. All locations provided plenty of time without being too rushed or too long. Keep in mind layers in Malibu is smart...the open windows to part of the van make the tour but my suggestion is to bring a hat and/or sweatshirt. We had a blast...thank you!!! Lora, Ann, Susan, Sheri, Cheryl, Margery, Maggie, Rilie and Sami

A Little Taste of a Lot of Malibu - We did a mid-week booking and were pleased to find that we were the only three taking the tour that day. Some tour companies would have cancelled due to lack of a "minimum". Not this one.
Our group consisted of mom, dad and daughter. Daughter lives in LA, mom and dad coming in from the east coast. We took this tour to get a flavor for the Malibu area, not to become experts in grape growing or wine production. The tour does exactly what they advertise - give you an inside look at some areas even locals may not know about. Even our daughter was able to learn new details about a place she has visited many times (like how to access some pretty awesome 'private' beaches).
Our guide, Gavin, was the consummate host/tour guide. He is knowledgeable and encourages questions as you go from stop to stop. No, you will not experience gourmet food, or fine wines but you will get some interesting tidbits of what it is like to live in Malibu. If you want fine wine, take the $500 tours . . .

We loved the beaches - This was a wonderful tour. The tour guide provided fun facts and history during the ride, and then provided time to explore the areas on our own. Amazing beaches and wildlife preserves. As someone who loves near LA but had never been to Malibu, it was a great introduction to the area.

Beautiful, relaxing tour - This tour was great. I felt very safe on this relaxing excursion. Gavin gave us some history beginning with the original indigenous Chumash people. We learned some geography and history, and of course there were celebrity points of interest. The beaches selected for the tour were absolutely beautiful. There were opportunities to shop and eat. Snacks, wine and water were provided. It was a well-spent afternoon.
