Great trip, staff were excellent! I went with my 15 year old son and we spotted a humpback whale, along with dolphins and seals! Don’t hesitate - book!

Reviews: Carlsbad Food Tour and Wine Tasting

Guest User2026-01-21

An Unforgettable Taste of Carlsbad – Highly Recommend! My wife and I, Damon & Debra, had an incredible experience with Carlsbad Food Tours, and it truly exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, the tour was thoughtfully curated and showcased some of Carlsbad’s most unique and memorable eateries. Each stop highlighted high-quality ingredients, exceptional craftsmanship, and a genuine passion for culinary excellence. It was clear that great care was taken in selecting the restaurants and local partners featured on the tour. What truly made the experience stand out was our guide, David. He went above and beyond—knowledgeable, personable, and incredibly engaging. David brought the history, culture, and creative spirit of this Southern California beach community to life, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. His enthusiasm and attention to detail made us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout the entire experience. This was more than just a food tour—it was a cultural and culinary journey that gave us a deeper appreciation for Carlsbad. If you’re looking to explore the real Carlsbad in a fun, relaxed, and meaningful way, this experience is a must. We highly recommend it and would gladly do it again. — Damon & Debra

Reviews: San Diego Whale Watching Cruise

Guest User2026-02-16

Had a great time spending Valentine's Day with the wifey on this incredible cruise. We were able to see some whales. The crew was amazing and very accomodating. Plenty of snacks and drinks. One of the female staff is really great at taking your photos so that you wont miss a moment (she definitely knows what she's doing) Would definitely recommend them.

Reviews: Stand up Paddle Board Lesson on The San Diego Bay

Michael did an awesome job! I learned to stand and paddle immediately without even realising I’m doing it in the middle of the bay confidently! Thanks Michael for your accommodation and patience.

Reviews: Catamaran Sunset Sail Premium 2.5hr Small group w/ drinks

Guest User2024-09-09

Had so much fun on our sunset cruise with Captain Ryan! It truly felt like peak San Diego. On a perfect heatwave week we jumped in the water and watched the sun go down and enjoyed the perfectly warm weather on the water together. I will be booking again for a bachelorette party next year and every other special occasion we can think of :) can’t wait to sail again with fun cat sailing!
