The tour itself is a great overview of the city with multiple stops. It was nice to have a few minutes at most places to walk around rather than just sit in the van for 4 hours; however, the stops felt rushed due to 'staying on time, or making up time.' We left a little later than scheduled, but the driver picked up opposite side of the building where the directions state. She gave a reason why she did, and noted that the company needs to change the directions, though through her admission, she's worked there for 3 weeks. Thankfully, one couple didn't get left behind due to this confusion. The tour guide shared solid educational facts about the city - but also extra info that frankly did not enhance the experience. We didn't need to know she's single and soliciting us to find her a match. We didn't need to hear about her other job and how popular she is with that. We didn't need her to carry a vape and take a last puff before she blew smoke as we entered the van. We didn't need her to honk during a private ceremony at one of the stops in order to get a car to move out of her way. I felt like her somewhat aggressive behavior honestly took away from the ability to relax and enjoy the experience. On the plus side, and why we took the tour, we were able to get a general overview of what San Diego has to offer. If you are new to the city, it's a great way to explore at a very surface level and pique curiosity for what you might want to go back and visit again - La Jolla beach, historical buildings, military, old town, and even Coronado Island. The tour was obviously not all encompassing of San Diego, but worth the ½ day of time to explore. The water was greatly appreciated. Might want to re-think trail mix as a snack option due to nut allergies, so if you have nut allergies, be warned that is what is offered.

Hello Kristi,
Thank you so much for your feedback. I’m so sorry you didn’t fully enjoy the tour.
As you said, Melissa is a new addition to the company, and I’m very surprised as I never had this kind of feedback, and I agreed, she should have not shared any personal information, or being too familiar, and I’m sorry it took some joy away from you while exploring the city. If there is anything that we can do to make your experience a little bit better, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you
