Review summary
This crew absolutely delivers on fun, and reviewers can't stop raving about the hosts, especially Donnie, who gets called out repeatedly for being hilarious and charismatic. The vibe strikes a perfect balance between relaxed and entertaining, with strong drinks, great music, and gorgeous bay views that include sea lion sightings. People mention the staff's genuine enthusiasm shines through in everything they do, from the moment you arrive until the cruise wraps up. The different tour options seem to cater to various moods. Jazz sunset cruises attract folks looking for something low-key and beautiful, while the interactive tours with games and team activities bring higher energy. Families appreciate the kid-friendly options, and solo travelers report feeling completely welcomed and engaged. One person mentioned expecting more games on a specific tour type, but the overwhelming pattern shows staff keeping groups entertained and laughing throughout. The consensus is clear: excellent service, unbeatable skyline views, and a crew that genuinely loves what they do make this a standout experience on San Diego Bay.
What people are saying
I want to give a shout out to Tiki Time Bay Tours. Donny was amazing to begin with. He "sold" us on the game tour. We were so hesitant, but he assured us it would be fun and he was right. Our captain, Mike, was fun, and entertained us the entire trip Jeff, who drove the boat, was so fun too.he is a former coast guard (thank you for your service) and kept us safe as we navigated the bay among so many other vessels. Safety was always his priority. Ashley, our server and bartender, was always there to ensure we were well taken care of. She made our group feel so special. Together, this team gave us such a wonderful experience. Two hours was definitely not enough time, but we enjoyed every single minute. To be sure, you MUST bring a fun attitude and be willing to participate in the fun and games the provide. If you do, you will not be disappointed. It's a refreshing and entertaining afternoon. Make sure if you're visiting Sand Diego to do the Tiki Time Bay Tours. If you bring a group and are ready to have fun, they will make sure you have the best time on the water. Every one of them is there to make sure you have a great time.
