Was a fun 2 hours out seeing the area, and the naval base. Tour was very informative during the route out. My wife and I enjoyed the whole experience especially not being from a area near the ocean or with water ways.

A lot of Information to listen to. A little on the city, commercial docks and the US Navy. Interesting! Great day for a cruise on the water. Plenty of room inside and on the top deck. There were a lot of ships in the harbor today. 3 submarines.
We missed the aircraft carrier. It left early in the morning. Masks required on the inside.

Great two hour tour. The captain pointed out even off the wall small things. So much history can be seen. They even have bar service on the boat.

Very nice and reasonable. You'll get tons of amazing photos and a good run down of all the ships present. Any questions...be sure to ask the crew and not the captain.
