Whales, dolphins, sea lions galore!

For all the nay sayers who you say you won’t see any whales- then all I can say is they didn’t pick the right company to take them!

Spooky San Diego!

My wife and I love spooky stuff! Cowboy Pete definitely delivers! He is very knowledgeable about the spooky bits of Sam Diego. The door affords the opportunity to get in and off at different haunted locations all around San Diego, which we both loved! Not only that, it afforded us the ability to take a peek at places we wanted to spend more time at later! If you come to San Diego, carve out a a couple hours, hop on the Ghost Bus and enjoy some ghost stories with Cowboy Pete! Thanks for a great tour!

Super fun! After the...

Super fun! After the first few minutes, getting to know the ins and outs of the go kart it was a blast zipping around downtown San Diego. Surprisingly it felt safe and cars were careful to give us plenty of room. The Talking GPS was very informative and helpful making sure we stayed on course. Overall, well worth the money and very fun. .

San Diego Zoo 1 Day Pass Any Day Ticket

Lisa_H, Oct 2026

San Diego Zoo is beautiful

What can I say? I've wanted to come to this zoo forever. I love giraffes and koala bears! The zoo layout is perfect. The exhibits are amazing and fun for families. The little school kids were there too and so excited. The bus tour is a must! Explore all the protected wildlife and hear the stories about the plants and how the zoo was formed. The staff there is so friendly and guide you if you want to see specific animals. It's paradise! Getting there was easy and snacks and food vendors as well as stores are right there. Loved it!

San Diego Whale/Dolphin Watching Cruise Aboard Luxury Vessel

Hope_M, Sep 2026

A great ride

Great crew, pleasant ride and happy to share fun facts galore. Saw “hundreds” of dolphins, sea lions, a shark and even a submarine emerge from the water. No whales to no fault of crew. Whales are tricky devils and sometimes hide. the boat was super clean with plenty of room to move about as they don’t book so heavy like other excursions. All in all, great fun.
