Great end to the day - Capt Philips was informative and entertaining. The atmosphere was casual and relaxing. The beverage and snack area seemed well stocked (though we didn't have much as we just had a big dinner and dessert before we boarded). It was a bit chilly but not too cold. It was just overall a great experience as we also caught glimpses of dolphins as well as many sea lions.

Fabulous experience - Captain Philip is a truly gracious host aboard his beautiful classic yacht. Very warm and genuinely enjoys what he does. He tooks us around to see all the naval ships at our request and out under the Coronado bridge. An unforgettable afternoon aboard the Liberty. Throughly recommended!!!

Best sunset cruise ever! - LOOK FOR THEIR OWN WEBSITE! TripAdvisor takes a percentage of their revenue so look up their own website when booking. That being said, Captain Philip is awesome! We had crummy clouds blocking the sunset but it was still such an amazing trip. We learned all about the boat and Philip’s history as a captain. The couple we were on the boat with were delightful and all three of them make for an unforgettable experience. We will wholeheartedly recommend Captain Phil to anyone looking for a sunset cruise while in SD.

A San Diego favorite - My favorite activity in San Diego. Small group experience with a knowledgeable and skilled captain. Saw so much of the harbor up close and learned so much about the various ships and boats. Captain Phil was very personable and entertaining. An all around great experience.

Memorable Sailboat Cruise - This experience was the best I had with my friends in San Diego harbor. Captain Phillips is a great guy. The sunset tour we went on included alcohol and nonalcoholic beverages plus a variety of snacks. Also if anyone is wondering there is a toilet onboard. Additionally, there is a bluetooth speaker to play your own tunes. We definitely enjoyed our evening and would recommend it for a fun intimate adventure.

Best Customer Service - Day of the trip I had checked the weather and noticed it was going to be cloudy and cold. The team was kind and understanding and offered to reschedule or a refund. It was not something they had to do per their policy but was out of the goodness of their heart. When I come back to San Diego I will definitely book this sunset tour.
