Tours

Experience the Port firsthand on one of our fully narrated harbor, rail, and bicycle tours. The harbor and rail tours are first-come, first-served, and they go fast, so get there early to secure your seat.

Harbor Tours

See towering gantry cranes, barking sea lions and massive cargo ships on one of our 45-minute boat tours. Boats depart every 15 minutes from the docks next to the Queen Mary. Shuttles will take passengers from the Port's Administration Building, near the festival, to the docks.

Watch dockworkers, truckers and crane operators unload containers and prepare them for distribution to stores all over the country. Trains depart from our Green Port Fest Train Station every hour beginning at 10:30 a.m. Last train leaves 2:30 p.m. Please line up about 30 minutes before departure time.

Bicycle Tours

Come to Green Port Fest on your bicycle. The Port, in partnership with LB Cyclists, is offering free bike valet. You can ride on your own to the event at 925 Harbor Plaza, but we recommend that you allow LB Cyclist to guide you from a staging area on the Promenade between 1st Street and Ocean Boulevard in downtown Long Beach. The guides will take riders to the event every 45 minutes beginning at 9:30 a.m. October 2.

Also, there will be a pre-event bike tour at 9 a.m., taking riders on a hour-long, three-mile tour through the streets of the Port with stops at cargo terminals and the Pilot Station. Meet at the Promenade at 8:30 a.m.
