Very informative - The information given during the tour was very informative and you got to see San Diego you would not be able to see any other way.

Pacific fleet gems - Awesome Navy sea vessels and aircraft. We also saw dolphin training and seals sun-bathing. I was able to enjoy this special time with my son.

Great views and worth the price - If you're using rideshare to get there, do not enter "Pier 2" as your destination. It will try to take you to a pier on the military base. The address is 970 N. Harbor Drive, it's next to the USS Midway. Cityscape tours I believe it's called. Try to get there early to stand in line to get the better seats on the uncovered upper deck. The passenger or right side of the boat are the best seats. It's a cool tour and definitely worth the price. Lots of great views of the bay and city skyline, and military history of the port. The 330pm tour was the last of the day and the least crowded, but I'm sure that differs day to day.

San Diego Harbor Cruise - The cruise around the harbor was nice, very informative. My one suggestion is to improve your snack menu. Maybe Pizza, Sliders or Wings.

Difficulty locating where to go - I didn’t see any space where the address of my event was located. I had to click into the map to find out. This was after spending some time looking around the event page and my ticket info.

Wrong title for tour - Difficult to hear first announcer. Boat was too large to feel intimate and connected to the tour. The boat was special and comfortable. Tour should really be titled boat tour of navy yard. Was expecting more information on sites of San Diego.

PLEASE provide tourists with better information - TERRIBLE directions to the meetup location. The address provided is VERY VAGUE. Google Maps can't identify exactly where the location is. There are a couple of different tour operators at the location when you do find it. You're left having to ask each operator if they are the Tour that you're looking for. It's a very stressful way to begin what is supposed to be a relaxing ocean cruise/ your. My husband and I spent 45 minutes just looking for the meet location. GO EARLY to give yourself plenty of time to figure it out.
