Not Quite the Experience That We Expected

2.00The cruise was crowded. We couldn’t hear the guide. The 2-hour tour was broken up into two trips. The boat had to dock, then disembark the first group, and load up the new group of guests. We actually left after 1 hour because the experience was so poor. I recommend finding a harbor cruise that is smaller so you can really enjoy it and learn about San Diego.
Great Harbor Tour

4.00Beautiful ocean breeze to cool you off in the summer. No food or drink provided. Parking is across the street. I gave the captain a tip, he was constantly giving facts about the sites within the harbor.

5.00We did the 2-hr cruise of the harbor and it was so interesting. We especially liked hearing facts about the Navy base. JJ was the narrator and she was wonderful with a clear voice and a good sense of humor. This might not be the most interesting for young children. Some folks on the tour had kids who were 8-10 yrs old and they were all about the snacks 😊
ok event

3.00The trip was ok, not a full boat which was appreciated, I feel that had all the seats been taken it would have been extremely crowded. We upgraded to surf and turf and have to say this was an extremely underwhelming meat. 3 small shrimp and a mediocre piece of tenderloin. Was this a $300 trip for 2? No, maybe a $150 trip. I also wish that they had given some commentary as to what we were seeing but realize that was not a sightseeing cruise. We did use Flagship to get from San Diego to Coronado Island and that was very smooth and easy.
Great Vibes

5.00A lot of great things to do after your boat tour. About 2 miles from the departure point has a lot of tourist stuff to see. Also, a lot of great five star restaurants and hotels . I recommend the Marriott Marquis
Fun Experience!
