  • Conklyn 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Highly recommended tour Last month, my wife and I were on a Disney cruise that stopped at Catalina island and the city of Avalon. We were lucky enough to book the bison expedition, and we were so glad we did! We got to see so much more of the island on the comfortable Hummer vehicle. The views of the island were amazing, and it was cool to see the airport. We got really lucky to see a lone male bison up close. Huge shout out to our tour guide, Halvy. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. He really made the tour what it was. Read more Written May 5, 2024
  • Patty S 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles 60th birthday gift - Zip Lining in Catalina ❤️ This was the best experience ever!!!. I decided that for my 60th birthday I was going to zip line in Catalina. It was terrifying but amazing! There were five of us and everyone loved it. Abby and Jamie were both incredible. It took me forever to step off the platform on the second zip line and Abby was patient and kind and supportive And ultimately encouraged me to take the step and I’m so glad I did! After that, it was smooth as could be and I had a blast. This is an amazing experience and I’m so grateful to Abby and Jaime for making it such a fun day for all of us! Read more Written May 2, 2024

  • X987ZWandrewc 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Truly memorable experience Whether you find bison or not, the overall experience is well worth it! We did the two and a half hour biofuel tour, and our guide, Halvy, couldn’t have been better. It’s clear he enjoyed doing what he does. I learned a lot about Californian and Catalina’s history, even when I thought I was a nerd. He spent time on the drive, which was immensely scenic, allowing for some amazing photo ops. The drive up to the airport was crazy smooth even though the roads were dirt. All in all, I would highly recommend this tour, you may just see some furry celebrities up in the mountains!

So if you can imagine, we get all the way to the top and she wants to quit. If it wasn’t for our guides, Ryan and Jadon, she would have. Our guides were so fun and friendly, we had the times of our lives. Mom jumped and everybody had a blast. Thank you so much and we’ll be back!!!! Read more Written April 6, 2024

We are so glad we finally took the time to take an official tour and have a better understanding of the island and the history.

We did the ferry arrival, semi submarine, the 2 hour inland tour and the helicopter departure. All worth it. We had a great tour and learned so much. Do not skip the Casino! Watch a movie there! We wish the botanical gardens were not so pricey. We skipped that. Have fun!

We went to Catalina the week of Christmas and new years. Unfortunately this was a really bad time to come. Half the tours are unavailable as they were seasonal activities and half the shops/restaurants are closed up for the season. Many won't be opening back up until February or March and some don't open up until April-May. When booking activities I recommend coming during spring or summer. It seems you'll have more fun during those months. What really made the tours memorable were the guides! We loved the guides and the efforts they put into our experience.

Photo of Sophia C.

This was loads of fun and way more enjoyable than I thought it would be! Bought the fish food torpedoes (16 shots for $20 or you can split with a companion and get 8 shots each). It was literally a live action Nemo submarine ride haha. Saw LOTS of fish and kelp forests. Ride was nicely air conditioned and seats had your own porthole to look out from. Easy walk from the cruise terminal and bathrooms right nearby too. A great way to spend an hour in Catalina!

catalina island undersea sub expedition tours

I bought tickets from Groupon and although it was such a hassle trying to coordinate and get through to someone finally to book them, the actual submarine was fun. You basically pay more money to be able to feed the fish, but it's worth it! The amount of fish that end up coming to your side is crazy. If you have tickets through email, make sure to get actual tickets on the pier to give to the worker on the boat. Or they ask you to go back afterwards to get it for them.

I booked the two hour "Inside Adventure Tour" super quick online without much research. I had searched "jeep tours" on google and this was one of the first to pop up. I hadn't realized when I booked this one it was not a jeep at all. Full honesty I was nervous I was going to super disappointed after seeing the cool Hummer and Jeep tours going on, on the island all weekend. It ended up being perfect! It was really rainy and chilly most of the day so it was nice to be inside the van in a temperature controlled environment lol. Our driver was really nice, knowledgeable, and had a great eye for spotting the wildlife! This tour was half price of even the other tours cheapest offerings. I would definitely recommend.

Great experience! Did this about 10 years ago and it is definitely better than it used to be.If it's a busy day, things can be a bit chaotic. You need to pay cash for feeding the fish (torpedoes) so heads up.

catalina island undersea sub expedition tours

Took the Catalina Inside Tour on Tuesday, July 18th that boarded at 10 AM. We were in a nine passenger air conditioned van. The tour and tour guide were outstanding. The tour guide spoke clearly and conveyed very interesting information about the island from well before Wrigley purchased it. It was interesting how the island is run today for its 4000 residents and many daily tourists. I highly recommend including this tour to l arm more than you might on a Google search.
