What a good experience on the San Diego Seal Tour. Rose our fabulous tour guide was really engaging and friendly. She made the entire experience so much fun. Her bubbly personality and approachable nature were awesome!!! We get a quick tour of the San Diego waterfront and must-visit places on land. The ride on water time was very educational and it was great seeing the baby seals. It was worth spending the afternoon on the Seal Tour especially if you have Rose and Johnny as your guides. I highly recommended this tour to any family and visitors to San Diego.
