      Activity itinerary

      Toast Tours

      • 1h
      Your tour guide/driver will pick you up around 8:45 in the morning and will engage you with fascinating titbits about local history and point out interesting landmarks as you enjoy your drive over the pristine and rugged Santa Lucia Mountains. Along the way you’ll take in beautiful views of the fog blanketed mountain peaks and the rocky shoreline of the Pacific Ocean as we make our way to William Randolph Hearst’s extravagant holiday home on the ‘Enchanted Hill’.

      Hearst Castle

      • 2h
      • Admission ticket included
      At the Castle, your guide will pick up your tickets and you’ll quickly begin your guided Grand Rooms Tour, allowing you to enjoy the splendour of the Castle as Hearst and his guests would have. This portion of the tour is NOT private, and operated by the State. On the tour, you’ll visit Hearst’s opulent social rooms on the ground floor of the castle where each evening W.R. Hearst would gather his guests – consisting of the Hollywood elite of the time, influential politicians, famous authors and artists, and other notable figures – for lavish meals and socialising all through the night.

      Elephant Seal Vista Point

      Just north of Hearst Castle, is the famous Elephant Seal Rookery in San Simeon to witness hundreds of massive elephant seals lounging, sparring, and socialising along the shoreline. This unique coastal experience offers incredible wildlife viewing year-round and a chance to see one of California’s most fascinating marine mammals in their natural habitat along the scenic Pacific Coast Highway.
