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 User2025-12-30

8 of us climbed aboard this beautiful replica of the World Cup winner sailing schooner under clear blue skies. A Christmas gift for our kids and grandkids, we didn’t know what to expect. Wow, the crew was exceptional (they didn’t introduce themselves by name unfortunately but sans the male captain and his incredible chocolate lab Marie (who alerted us all to whale blow/presence with stellar accuracy), the all women crew made our trip a stunning success. We saw sea lions resting on the naval pier at sunset, chops of cheerful, playful dolphins that came near the boat, leaks, and 3 different kids of whales. It was educational to learn about the ethical approach rules they abide by so as to to interupt migration activity and to respect the whales’ spaces and needs. The sightings of all the animals were a collective effort of crew and passengers, and the sightings were called out for all to see. The ability of the crew to explain terminal dives of the whales set expectations of when to look again for blow and resurfacing. We learned so much about the harbor activities, navel operations, dolphin training that was done with dolphins who are part of the US Navy, the Naval national cemetery and Mt Carrillo. So much more was seen and experienced than “whales and dolphins”. The ship is very spacious but there is no padding on the seats provided ( we were given a pad by crew when asked for a family member with back fusion challenges). Water and sodas were provided and later in tour chips, cookies or nutrition bars were handed out. We had packed our lunches and water and enjoyed the very calm waters and brilliant temperatures for 4 hours. I highly recommend this event with your travels to San Diego. I know you may not get the picture perfect day we had with weather and sightings but I am certain it will be an amazing Morning or afternoon. Layer and bring jackets to block the wind.

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.

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!
