Container Tour

The boat trip was sold as whale watching tour, it was more like a tour of the shipping area. We did not go pat rhe wall break and all we got was a view of the container shipping and receiving area. Though it was interesting, I expected more.

Operator response

Hi David, This listing is for a Whale Watching option but at the time of checkout, you selected for to book our 45 Min Sightseeing cruise option, not the Whale Watching Option. This is why you received our Sightseeing Cruise of the amazing Los Angeles Port.
