Every trip runs one free day short. These 9 wine tastings are the ones that earn the slot, priced and timed so you can decide over breakfast.
Board Flagship Cruises’ luxury yacht at Broadway Pier for a two-hour Sunday brunch on San Diego Bay. Expect bottomless mimosas, chef-attended omelets, seafood, sirloin, desserts, live music or a DJ, and views of the USS Midway, Coronado Bridge, and downtown skyline.
“Wait staff was attentive and friendly. Food was just ok. Overall, a nice 2 hours to spend on a ship seeing San Diego”
Join Captain Phillip aboard Liberty, a hand-restored yacht modeled on a 1904 sailboat, for a 2.5-hour San Diego Bay cruise. With space for six passengers, beer, white wine, soft drinks, snacks, and views of Navy ships, the Coronado Bridge, sea lions, and the skyline, this is a calm, personal evening on the water.
“Captain Phillip’s sailing tour was beautiful! My husband and I went out along the bay with our two other friends and it was an incredible experience! The views, the sailboat, everything was top tier. Will definitely be doing this again in the future and I recommend if you want an intimate personal experience, this is the tour to do! Thank you again!”
Travel from San Diego into Mexico’s Valle de Guadalupe with a private guide such as Mario or Rene handling the driving, border crossings, winery visits, and timing. The day includes three tastings, a winery production visit, a five-course BajaMed lunch at Finca Altozano, and hotel pickup in eligible areas.
“Mario was awesome. He picked us up right on time and was so helpful. He pointed out spots along the way and knew a lot of history! This was the best tour I have ever been on. Great wineries, and the food was amazing. He sat with us at lunch, helped order and helped us with any and all questions. He was so intelligent, welcoming, friendly and kind. Crossing back from Mexico was super easy! I felt entirely safe and taken care of. I would recommend this tour and plan to do it again myself. So fun and so worth it! Don’t miss out!”
Travel from San Diego to Mexico’s Valle de Guadalupe for three boutique winery visits, 10 to 12 tastings, Rosarito fish or shrimp tacos, and a tapas lunch at Adobe Guadalupe. Guides such as Oscar and Priscilla bring local color, while a stocked van keeps the long day comfortable.
“Fantastic experience! Great food, wine, and people! Highly recommend! If you have global entry, makes getting back across the border when you return back easier.”
