What people are saying about Cabrillo National Monument

We had a great time on the harbor tour. We took the two-hour tour and were able to see and experience both the north and south harbors. The crew were very friendly and helpful. The narration for both segments was great. We learned a lot about the harbor area which helped us to plan new things to do in San Diego. Well worth it!

Very informative but fun. Great selection Food and drinks onboard. Staff was amazing. Server was fast and very friendly. Our team of 26 (of various ages) really enjoyed it. We would do it again.

This was an activity for my work team, and we truly enjoyed it. I wish we would have had time to do the 2-hour tour.

Very nice tour with interesting explanations. Recommended!!

The ship crew was polite friendly and professional
