What are people saying about San Diego

Desert travelers/California dreaming

It's a very enjoyable, relaxing boat ride. you get to see a lot of sights from the boat that you might miss in a car. Our waitress I believe her name is Maryann was very positive, cheerful and customer service oriented. She was right on top of our needs, she is an asset to your company for sure. The brunch buffet was delicious very tender and moist Salmon and chicken dishes. (always a plus when these items aren't over cooked and served dry!)

San Diego Hop On Hop Off Trolley Tour

Excellent experience

The staff was great in every trolley and at every stop. My 85 year old mom was with us and needed some accommodations as we entered and exited the trolley. They were kind and patient and made a place for her mobility cart without complaint. We were in San Diego during a heat wave and they were attentive to everyone’s well being.

Fun tour for all ages

Fun family friendly tour for a reasonable price. The South tour has more naval ships with some history info and the North tour has more local attraction info and a drive by the sea lions. The ship is big/slow enough we didn't worry about sea sickness too.

San Diego Whale Watching Cruise

Sydney_B, Aug 2026

Outstanding experience

I took my family, 7 of us on this trip and it was the highlight of our vacation. We were fortunate to have a great active humpback whale right up to the boat, learned all the terms and parts of the whale from the knowledgable staff. They had supplies or medicine, ginger chews and more if anyone gets sudden sea sick. It was smooth sailing and soooo beautiful! They had free soda and water bottles, other drinks for reasonable price. But mostly the way the staff handled the sail and shared their knowledge, they used a rubber whale to describe the jumps that the whale had done for us. The humpback scooped under the boat and all around us. We got great pictures and everyone in our group just loved it. The America is an amazing well kept, GORGIOUS ship that the staff works so hard to keep so clean for all of us. Not one thing went wrong. Thanks to you staff, ai will recommend you to friends who visit San Diego.

Sunset Sail Along the San Diego Skyline

55th Birthday Sail

The captain was kind and knowledgeable it was a small comfortable group. Although, we were advised no food would be provided and we could bring our own, the captain provided water and wine. I felt safe and comfortable. One thing I’d like to mention is I am a diabetic and during the last 30 minutes of the sail I experienced a sugar drop which could be dangerous for me. I was asking if anyone had any thing sweet, the captain stopped his duties and searched the bottom cabinet to see if there was anything. He also dropped us off at the dock off his usual return route at a nearby restaurant so I could get some food. I really appreciate him being kind, helpful and compassionate. Overall, my experience with Viator and Captain Skipper was awesome and it was a birthday to remember! Thank you Captain Skipper 😊 Would definitely plan more sailing excursions when in San Diego

San Diego Whale Watching & Dolphin Cruise

Joy_A, Jul 2026

Dolphins and Whales and a Fighter plane oh my!

We paid for the early boarding which was a waste of money. You can move around the boat so it was pointless. We saw 2 large pods of dolphins which for me was the highlight. Our guide gave us lots of neat facts and information along the way. We saw a humpback whale breach and then it pop up here and there. We also had Navy fighter planes flying overhead which was cool. A really fun experience!

Perfect in every way

Perfect and dreamy. Captain Rick was knowledgeable, kind, and really easy to talk with.. There was nothing confusing or weird at all about the experience. It was just easy and fun and delightful. The check-in was professional and in a nice well kept location, and the on boarding process was smooth. Highly recommend.

Wonderful experience

Our Seal Tour experience was phenomenal! I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting San Diego. It was a wonderful experience for my family and me, and we enjoyed every minute of it. We especially loved our tour captain and crew member, who did an amazing job sharing the history of San Diego and keeping the tour fun and informative. Their knowledge, energy, and friendliness made the experience even more memorable. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

San Diego Zoo 1-Day Pass: Any Day Ticket

Lisa_G, Apr 2026

First trip to the SD Zoo did not disappoint!

First time visiting the zoo and it did not disappoint! The online tips said it probably takes 6-7 hours to see everything and they were not kidding. We stayed around 7 hours and still didn’t see it all. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and unlike any zoo I’ve ever visited. The conservation abounds and shows how much the animals are cared for here. We took the bus tour first thing which was a great way to get our bearings. We then took the tram up to the top and walked down to see the sights. Would definitely recommend this approach to save energy as the zoo is basically uphill! We loved seeing all the animals but especially the giraffes, elephants, and meerkats! Enjoy!

Great trip with kids!

Great boat ride! I went with my 2 & 6 year old, and this was the perfect boat trip. Good length, interesting things to look at (my son loved all the navy boats) and a safe boat fo my 2 year old to explore. The captan provided interesting information and the boarding process was easy.
