() “Off Road Confidential” host Gabriel Ornelas says the views in Marin County, California, give visitors that “quintessential” vacation feeling: “I didn’t know this was California.”

Ornelas visited the county, located between San Francisco and wine country, for one leg of “Off Road Confidential,” a special in association with Visit California.

He told “Morning in America” that Marin County is “really untouched in a lot of ways. There’s a lot of farming communities, and so there’s so many activities. There’s so many things to do.”

Ornelas got the chance to try some local cheese, take a horseback trek and admire the view from Point Bonita Lighthouse.

“There’s amazing institutions, restaurant institutions, for oysters, clam chowder,” Ornelas said. “You get a little bit of that East Coast feel on the West Coast, which is so nice.”

Ornelas will also make pit stops in Sacramento, Point Reyes, Half Moon Bay, Carmel and San Francisco.
