Scenic Tour of San Diego - Our tour guide, Roxanne, was a very knowledgeable and charming guide. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour through the different areas of the city that we might not have visited otherwise.

A Wonderful Tour in San Diego. - This was a wonderful experience. Our guide,Jim, was very knowledgeable and had wonderful stories about the area. We had a choice between two tours and were are so glad we chose this one. It was scheduled as a 4 hour tour but Jim did not shortchange our time. The highest recommendations for this tour.

Fantastic sampling of the best of San Diego! - This tour hits a bunch of the major landmarks and gives you a taste for different neighborhoods. I’m surprised by how much we were able to see! Jim was an awesome tour guide- very knowledgeable, personable, and funny! Highly recommend this- especially as a first day activity on vacation so you know where you’d like to spend more time.

special stops - Each stop was chosen well to introduce us to the highlights of San Diego and blended well with our other tour the Hop On/Off historic trolley. Would have enjoyed more time in La Jolla and Coronado, but Roxanne gave us details that were personal and interesting. She picked us up 5 minutes late due to traffic congestion, which ruffled her somewhat.

Boring - Very disappointing. dropped off at five places with 30 minutes to go look at it. Not what we expected at all. there were some expectation of some nice San Diego history but not what we really got
