- Debbie L. from Moorpark, CA - TripAdvisor"Ron was an excellent guide, driving thru parts of the island not usually seen - if you only stay in Avalon. Lots of history, back stories of people on the island as well as interesting nature topics. The jeep was comfortable with stops along the way for photo ops and bio breaks."
