Flagship Cruises & Events History 

Flagship Cruises & Events has been organizing guided tours of San Diego since 1915, and they own and operate more ships here than any other local tour business. Their impressive fleet of vessels includes California Spirit, their largest and newest ship, which can carry nearly 600 people at a time; the Spirit of San Diego, whose window-forward design provides guests with the best possible views; and the Patriot Jet Boat , a 70-foot vessel with not one, but two incredible engines on board.

What’s to See on a Flagship Cruise

Flagship Cruises & Events provides guests with numerous tour options. At the top of this list would have to be the San Diego Harbor Cruise, which is available in three different formats. The North Harbor Tour is a one-hour cruise that focuses on the northern portion of San Diego Bay, emphasizing landmarks like Shelter Island, Harbor Island, and North Island Naval Air Station. The South Harbor Tour is a one-hour cruise that focuses on the southern portion of San Diego Bay, taking you past local attractions like the Coronado Bay Bridge and Naval Amphibious Base Coronado.

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can choose to combine the two outings and go on Flagship’s Full Bay Tour. This two-hour excursion lets you enjoy the best of both shorter cruises, while not actually costing all that much more than the price of a one-hour cruise ticket. If you have the space in your schedule, the Full Bay Tour is well worth the time.

Though many visitors focus on the harbor cruises, Flagship Cruises & Events run several other types of tours, too. These include whale watching tours, Patriot Jet Boat thrill rides, the Coronado Ferry , and a whole bunch of different dining cruises. They also do special events and group outings.

If you’re in San Diego between the months of December and February try and book a whale watching cruise with Flagship Cruises and Events. Journey with them into the Pacific waters and experience the thrill of an up close and personal look at gray whales during their migration. Led by Birch Aquarium naturalists, you will see sea creatures like seals, sea lions, gray whales, and more. You can also take in the migrating birds and maybe spot a dolphin or two. This is a unique experience where you get the chance to see these ocean wonders and learn all about their journey, habits, and habitats.

For those of you looking for a tranquil and elegant night out, try a dinner cruise offered by Flagship Cruises and Events. Here you will enjoy a remarkable night of alluring music and mesmerizing views of the San Diego skyline while enjoying the delights of fine dining. This is the perfect setting for a special occasion, a family night out, or a romantic dinner for two. Enjoy a dining experience like no other by cruising around the San Diego Bay.

Additional fun events to watch for are the Sunday Prime Rib Dinner Cruise and the Sunday Brunch Cruise. No matter the time of day this will be a delightful and one-of-a-kind experience. If you’re traveling to San Diego during any holiday from Valentine’s Day to New Year’s Eve, check to see the holiday brunch or dinner featured that day, Flagship Cruises and Events pride themselves on giving a once in a lifetime experience that never disappoints.

Each and every Flagship Cruises vessel features a well-stocked snack bar, ensuring you won’t have to go hungry as you sightsee! These Flagship snack bars sell sandwiches, wraps, hot dogs, muffins, chips, and cookies, as well as coffee, tea, water, soda, and an assortment of alcoholic beverages.

Tips for Taking a Flagship Cruise

  • Each Flagship cruise boards anywhere between 15 and 30 minutes before its scheduled departure time, so you’ll want to arrive earlier in order to procure the best seats possible.
  • Weather conditions on the water can vary drastically from weather conditions on land, especially when it comes to temperature. As a result, it’s always a good idea to wear layers during your San Diego harbor cruise. This way you can add or subtract clothing as needed, if and when the wind picks up or the temperature fluctuates.
  • Flagship Cruises & Events has its own gift shop, The Wheelhouse. It’s located near the Flagship Loading Dock. There they sell snacks, tour supplies (sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses), San Diego-themed souvenirs, gifts, and keepsakes. It’s a nice spot to snag that little memento of your trip.
  • While the waters of San Diego Bay are typically fairly calm, if you’re someone who struggles with motion sickness you’ll want to come to a Flagship cruise as prepared as possible. This means taking medication to prevent seasickness, or wearing a motion-sickness wristband. Either of these resources are available at The Wheelhouse.

GCT Moscow to St. Petersburg have you done it?

Cool Cruiser

This is my first time with GCT and I was very disappointed when they said they were substituting a WWII memorial and Victory Park tour for a tour of the Kremlin and Armory Museum. We can take the Kremlin Armory tour for $60.00. The War Memorial and Victory Park tour was originally $45.00. They say it is because people didn't like the Kremlin and Armory Museum tour. It looks like a bait and switch to me. I can't imagine people not wanting to visit the Kremlin and Armory. If any of you have done this cruise I would be curious what you thought about these tours.

We took the GCT Russian cruise two years ago. I would not go to Moscow without going inside the Kremlin and the Armory. I don't understand droping that tour from the trip.

We're on the GCT Moscow/St. Petersburg September 6th cruise and have gotten the notification about the tour changes. We were going to do both anyway, so it's just a higher cost.

Anyone else going on this date?

Believe me, no matter what do take the Kremlin tour. If you have no other possibility, I can recommend an excellent local guide for you. I am a Cruise/Tour Director for AVALON and we will have the Kremlin Armory included and this would never be replaced for something else, UNLESS there is an official event going on in the Kremlin on the date you are there. This is the only possibility. The Kremlin regularly closes the doors without good reason (visit of a foreign dignitary or so).

Check this with Granc Circle (that is your cruise company am I right?)

Thank you Heintje. If you could give me the local guide info if he is able to pick us up at the boat I would be grateful. My e-mail address is [email protected] . All the Grand Circle tours have been switched from the Kremlin so I don't know what the problem is.

The name of the guide is IRA, She has been my local guide several times, and is specialized in Kremlin and Armory (also the treasury). She is prefered guide for individual guests of some of Moscows top hotels. Her e-mail address is:[email protected]

When you write her, you can mention that you received her name and address through me: Hendrik Jan from Holland.

I will sent a copy of this message to your e-mail address.

Good luck and let me know if you managed to get in touch with her; [email protected]

I am becoming less and less enamored with GCT as time goes on. I sent my Russian visa application to the agency GCT recommended the middle of January, after I called them and asked if I could send it early because I have a 31 day cruise on Orient Lines beginning 3/11. They said yes. Weekly calls and e-mails with promises to get it to me have not been much help. Finally, this week they said it would not be approved until the middle of March because GCT Russia is holding them up, I told them I had sent it to them early because I had an earlier cruise. So, for USD$100 they say I can get it back by March 1. When I e-mailed GCT they said that is why they sent out the Visa application so early. It looks to me like it doesn’t matter when they sent it out but GCT Russia is not going to send the applications in until the middle of March. I was also told by the agency that once the application is approved it would take two weeks for the Embassy in DC to put the Visa in the passport. If I miss my 31 day cruise I will not be happy and it is off to an attorney as I have done everything I can possibly do.

You may want to read the thread on the Frommers site about Grand Circle and their loss of Better Business Bureau Certification.

We have had both good and bad expeiences with GCT. Better to be informed.
