Full description

Get ready to experience the wild, rugged heart of Catalina Island on a two-hour Eco-Land Adventure Safari Tram Tour departing from Avalon, California. This scenic excursion ventures deep into the island’s untouched interior, where few tourists ever go. Along the way, the tram winds through canyons, along the coastline, and up mountainous terrain, revealing jaw-dropping views and the island’s unique ecosystem. Keep an eye out for bison, deer, bald eagles, and the elusive Catalina Island fox—you never know who might wander into view.
The route climbs all the way to the Airport-in-the-Sky, where you'll stop to explore the Nature Center and take in sweeping island vistas. It’s a photographer’s dream and an unforgettable way to connect with California’s wild side. Best of all, a portion of the tour fee helps protect Catalina’s wildlife and natural habitats through the Catalina Island Conservancy. Just a heads-up—this is a bumpy, backcountry ride, so dress in layers and be ready for some dusty adventure!
