About the Tour Guide
Hoyt Fields (Museum Director Emeritus of Hearst Castle) who has worked at the Hearst Castle Estate since 1974, is happy to take 20 of us on a special behind the scenes tour. Hoyt has worked as a "house" keeper, curator, and finally the Museum Director in 2000. He's worked with a series of superintendents, hundreds of guides, and an assortment of talented conservators. But Fields is never too busy to answer a question for a visitor who wants to know more about the Castle he knows and loves so well.

For those who would like to come up a day early, we have held rooms at the Cavalier Hotel. Prices range from $167 to $267 per night. For reservations please call Maira (805) 927-4688 and tell her you are with The Garden Club of Santa Barbara. First come first serve!
