“We loved the hop on hop off in San Diego, the different guides all had good bits of information. We enjoy being able to get off and back on. Could perhaps do with a few more stops so there’s not quite so far to go in between but overall worth the money and got us all round the places we wanted to see quickly, vehicles were easy to spot and stops were clear. Thank you.x”

“There is parking for $5 in a lot by seaport. I got a text that morning that said if I wasn’t there 30 minutes early my spot would be forfeited, which ended up not being applicable at all and we left 10 minutes late. The tour itself was great. 60 minutes in the water and 15 mins to and from the water. Got to see sea lions and some dolphins, very informative.”

Haunted trolley tour through San Diego Old Town, ending at Whaley House. Walk, hear ghost stories, and skip the usual sights.
“Our guide was very theatrical and knowledgeable about the local culture and Ghosts, their stories, etc. He was funny. I believe our tour was cut short due to SD COMIC CON street closures, etc so we went to 3 out of the 5 places listed, still a great tour for a little over 1 hour.”
