Well worth the time. Very good tour guides who were knowledgable and funny! They are only open for tours 1-2 times per week and only allow 40 people in per tour. Get there early. There was a line!Full review by lisapC9233DZ

I visited in August so I wasn't affected by the massive landslide this week that shut down highway 1. The Big Sur area is definitely affected and the California Department of Transportation (Trip advisor wouldn't post this response with a URL in the message regardless of how many ways I've tried to alter characters in the link. Please google it) has issued an alert listing specific closure points along highway 1 starting at San Luis Obispo to Gorda. The website lists an alternative route to bypass the closures. It also provides a free phone number to call once you're in California to get up to the minute updates on road conditions and detours.
