Planning a Group Trip to Catalina Island? Here’s How to Reserve Activities in Avalon Without the Stress

Group trips can be such a blast, and Catalina is the perfect setting for a group adventure. The island is well known as a fun family destination, but there are great activities for bachelor or bachelorette parties, reunions, girls’ trips, golf getaways, student tours, corporate retreats, and more. Of course, there are plenty of opportunities to visit restaurants and bars and to go shopping and sightseeing, but there are so many more enriching activities and adventures to enjoy on your visit to Avalon. 

The thing is: when you’re planning a group trip to Catalina on your own, you’ll need to coordinate so many details. You have to plan ahead, create schedules, secure tickets, organize transportation, and communicate with your venues and vendors in order to get plans in place. This is where a company like Catalina Tours comes in. Catalina Tours has mastered the art of helping to plan group trips to Catalina, paying attention to all the details of scheduling and coordinating. Work with the Catalina Tours team to customize the itinerary for your group trip, and create a truly memorable island experience. Read on to learn more about how to reserve activities in Avalon without the stress.  

An unforgettable island field trip awaits. Student tours can be overwhelming to plan, considering all the logistics like timing, budgets, and corralling your group. Rather than just spending the day  taking a boat ride and wandering around town, Catalina Tours can assist with creating structured trip plans for student groups. For student trips, we help to plan a detailed itinerary filled with excursions that combine hands-on learning with engaging activities. Our student trips aim to bring the history, science, and culture of Catalina to life. When you work with Catalina Tours, you will select your desired experience, set your date, confirm your group size, and enjoy a smooth trip. 

Choose your own adventure. One great thing about the options available through Catalina Tours is the wide variety of tours. Are you a science class with a goal to study the marine ecosystem? Is your group seeking to study some art and history at our island museum? Are you looking to keep students active and engaged in some island style adventuring? Or are you aiming to have some hands-on science experience?  Catalina Tours can help craft a tailored trip for you. In addition, the expert guides from Catalina Tours will lead your group, helping to balance education and adventure throughout your trip. 

We pay attention to detail. Catalina Tours specializes in group travel, and we know there are so many details that go into planning a trip like this. We work with you on details like timing, budget, and transitions for students in between activities. Even meals can be arranged for your group–whether it’s a sit-down dinner or boxed lunches on the go, we are happy to help coordinate these details with you. 

Safety first! Some of the island’s experiences may require waivers for students. If they’re needed, Catalina Tours will be sure to provide them to your group ahead of time. This helps to make the day run a bit more smoothly. 

We work with corporate tours too! If you’re taking your work team on an island outing, we can partner with you to decide on all the details, from ferries to activities to dining. These tours are designed for anywhere from 6 to 300 guests, and we can coordinate staggered activity schedules for larger groups. Catalina Tours offers some nicely curated team-building packages that are intended to balance fun and connection for your group. 

What is there to do on Catalina? There’s so much to see and do on the island! We will work with you to customize your group trip; check out some of the fun to be had on Catalina:
