Very good experience instructor Brian was very nice and informative. Nice seeing all the navy ships being out in the water seeing the animals all a plus

We had such a great time on our tour! Our guide, Keoni, was fantastic - friendly, welcoming, and full of enthusiasm. He explained everything clearly, shared fantastic knowledge about the area, and kept the ride fun with his dad jokes. His energy and passion really made the experience memorable. We learned so much about the San Diego harbor and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting or living in the area!

We had the best time on our boat tour! It was super fun to drive our own boat, easy to learn, and see all the sites, sea life, and our guide Captain K was wonderful!!

When Alex, our tour guide, said this was a guided tour, I was ready to leave. I thought I was renting a speedboat and doing what I wanted and going as fast as I wanted. I’m so glad I didn’t run. I was able to go as fast as I wanted and despite my distain for tours, I had a great time. Alex was a perfect mix of adventure and information. I would highly recommend the your and make sure Alex is your guide! Terry

Although it ran late it was worth the wait. The guides were awesome and friendly. Kept us updated during the delay and gave us options. Definitely doing it again.

My wife wanted to drive a speed boat. This was her first time. The instructors were patient and effective. The communication during the hour and half of piloting the speed boat with just the two of us on board and the guides at the head of our little group of boats speeding to all corners of the San Diego Bay made the trip a resounding success.
