Preston ended up giving us a great deal I couldn't say no, from start to finish we did a 6 hour tour. After completing it my parents were smiling and so happy. I highly recommend if your visiting or in town and want to go on a fun adventure these guys know how to impress and meet the needs of their guests. Thanks again keep up the good work

Went on this tour out of a special request and gift for the boyfriend. First of all, we were late!…read moreWe got to the Coyote Cafe about 10-15 minutes and we thought they had left since we didn't see anyone, so we decided to get something to eat in the area. We get call from the company, nicely asking if we were still going to participate, we said yes and they politely waited for us!!! How awesome is that!?!!?! We started off the tour at the Whaley House - f'ing creepy - and upon leaving the doorsteps, we were greeted by our tour guide and a limo! The limo ride was smooth and the drinks in the limo were complementary. We drove to Downtown, learned haunted history about the Stingaree DISTRICT - not the club, the Grand Horton Hotel, and the Horton Theater. Jumped back in our ride and rode down to the Hotel Del, then back up to Old Town to see the oldest graveyard in SD. Overall the tour, the experience, the customer service, the history was all amazing and I learned a lot. The boyfriend was heavily satisfied and I'm glad he liked it. The price of the tour is a tad much, but it's not dreadful. I highly recommend this to anyone who interested in history, creepy stuff or if you're bored. Oh! Our tour guide Magnus was amazing! He was very informative, friendly, entertaining, and he never broke out of character. Even with all the drunks passing by us in downtown, he never broke - SUPER!

This tour was fantastic! The best one I've ever taken and I've been on ones in new Orleans,…read moreSavannah, and charleston. The value is great what with the admission to the two sites that cost money (the whaley house and star of India), the length of the tour, the limo ride, and beer all being included in the tour price. It is important to note that The Whaley house is normally $6 for a SELF guided tour. One of the docents gave us the tour, we got a couple of really interesting pictures! My mom is a skeptic and a hobby photographer with a pretty nice camera. She was very suprised at the way some of the pictures turned out. I'll try to upload the best one. My dad also had an interesting experience; on the stairs he thought he touched someones hand and when he turned around to say excuse me no one was there! Be sure to take lots of pictures at this location. The limo ride was fun; if you find it awkward have a few beers! Alcohol is, afterall, the great social lubricant. Ours was a hummer stretch although I think they use different ones everytime. The beer is bud light and they also have a decanter of rum and vodka. Magnus was our guide and he was excellent. He told the stories without being TOO theatrical (which I think ruins the reality of the tour) and even helped spark up some discussions in the limo about ghosts and our beliefs. Be sure to bring money for a good tip! The other sites we visited were the star of India, del Coronado, the outside of the horton hotel, and the cemetery in old town. We also got some interesting pictures with orbs at the cemetery. My mom was very surprised since they didn't show up in all the night pictures and her lens usually filters out dust or other particles. The orbs also only appeared behind the wall where magnus said about 13 people were buried purposely outside the cemetery. Spooky. Do this tour if you're a history buff, are interested in the paranormal, or if you're just looking for a good story! Two thumbs way up.

He was a wonderful host, offered to take multiple pictures of us before and during the cruise. We got to see some sea lions up close and personal. The wine was good. There were a few different choices, the cheese, salami with crackers and grapes were also very nice and fresh. A great way to spend a nice afternoon on the water. Thanks for the great kick off to the weekend!

Spence was our captain. He was pretty awesome! Took as many pictures as we wanted. Provided…read moresunscreen. Thank goodness since we just ran out hours earlier at the beach. The boat ride was so relaxing and nice. We passed by some sea lions. Spence told us some facts that I barely remember now. He also pointed out good hang out spots for sunsets or late night outings. We got a few cheese fruit plates along with 2 bottles of wine. The spread was cute. Didn't do too well in July heat. But Spence brought it out a couple at a time and kept the rest in the fridge until we were ready for more. The wine was also kept out of the blaring sun. So it tasted great! The boat can fit 6 people. We rented out the boat for the four of us so we didn't get a random couple cruising with us. We rode by engine, not by sail. I wish we could have seen a bit of sailing in action. But I'm sure it causes more of a liability, especially if the passengers are drinking. Overall, I would repeat this again. The price wasn't crazy ridiculous as I have seen. Service was nice and so was our captain.

In our experience over…read morethe years, one of the most tricky aspects of an itinerary is finding a reliable tour guide that can easily relate to musical student groups and hold their attention with interesting facts about a city. San Diego Professional Tour Guide Association was easily the best experience I've had in finding and contracting a local tour guide. Not only was my initial inquiry received and prioritized promptly, but the tour guide I ended up contracting for my group did a phenomenal job. Bianca Jaime knew San Diego very well and did a stellar job engaging the kids. She was also very organized in the setup of the tour and accommodated all of the different sights in the group's itinerary. One thing to take away from this is the word "Professional" in their company name. This is indeed a company of honest professionals and I would go back to them for another tour in a heart beat. They are now my go-to San Diego tour guides.

Atakin is the guide and also the owner of the business so he really knows his stuff! He walked us through the history of every stop and about the town as a whole. Private tours are such a unique experience that allows us to ask questions and get the perspective of a local. My family booked the little Italy private walking tour and had a great time with kids included. It lasted about 3 hours but we stayed in the area longer because it was so beautiful! 'm a SoCal native and I still learned and tried so much! The food was amazing from each place.

2/22 was a great day for this event. The weather was a little cloudy at first but it wasn't too…read morecold. The clouds parted mid-day right at the perfect time to take photos. This is a long day, but we enjoyed it. I've never been on the other whale watching or sea life exploration tours. This one had it all! We saw whales, sea lions, dolphins, sea elephants, birds, orange star fish, oyster catches and more! The captain was knowledgeable and was quite the story teller! (Interesting bit about the island and the cats???) We saw 'whales galore' according to the captain. We were seeing them in groups of 4, 6 and 8. Pretty amazing! What's nice is that these islands are relatively untouched and the the wildlife there live in their own ecosystem and it works to keep the animals alive and well. We brought our own lunch as did many others. We took lots of photos and enjoyed our day. If you're seated up top, there are no tables so be prepared to have lunch in your lap. The only gripe I might have is that when you're sitting on the top deck of the boat, the speaker barely projects over the noise of the waves against the boat, the boat motor and people chatting. Its a good thing we had a crowd that was interested in what he was saying so all were pretty respectful up on top. What balances that one gripe was how amazingly well that captain maneuvered that boat! The way he'd pull it up close to the island so you could get good photos. The way he was respectful in the way he worked his way around the group of whales so as not to scare them. The way he'd stop talking so he wouldn't scare the birds that were 'sensitive to noise', not only did all of that speak to his knowledge of his craft, it also showed his respect for the animals and their habitat. He pulled that boat up to the edge of those islands better than I've seen people attempt to parallel park even the smallest of cars in the largest of spaces?? He's good! If its freezing cold on the way back, don't expect the inside of the boat to be like the Hornblower were everyone who's outside can fit inside. The inside cabin is more of just a galley with a few bench seats and tables. We were lucky to get a seat before the ride back home. We read the reviews and it was a good idea to: bring our own lunch, bring reading materials for the way home, put on sunblock, wear sunglasses, dress warmly and bring extra clothes to layer if needed park in the county building (1 day $7) @ ash and pacific highway We decided we'd do that one again if guests were in town and wanted to do something different and enjoyable. I feel like it was better than going to Sea World because the animals you see are doing their own thing, in their own natural environments!
