With a treasure trove of adventures waiting for you in San Diego, you’ll definitely want to visit them all efficiently. Without a great guide, you know you’re going to need help. That help comes in the form of Old Town Trolley Tours.

These trolley tours are the only scheduled on-and-off, narrated tours of San Diego and Coronado. Anecdotes and humorous stories as well as historical information will color your tour, that will both entertain and entertain you. The trolley tours go through San Diego and Coronado in a loop, making it easy to being your tour at any stop at any time of the day. The round trip takes about two hours, and you could listen to riveting stories while aboard the trolley. You could also hop off, visit a few sites on your own, and board the trolley once more. The earlier you start, the more you’ll be able to see.

You only have one full trip around the route, so plan your stops to make the most out of it. It is possible to see all of San Diego’s best stops in one day.

There are ten stops around the city:

Old Town State Park

Cruise Ship Terminal

Midway Aircraft Carrier Museum

Seaport Village

Marriot Hotel and Marina

Horton Plaza

William Heath Davis House

Coronado

San Diego Zoo

El Prado

Beach lovers will enjoy the island of Coronado, that has a beautiful beach and a hotel immortalized in many movies. Consider the trip over the bridge to this island, as the view is spectacular.

The El Prado stop brings you to Balboa Park, and you could spend many days here roaming through the many museums. The weekends bring street performers and vendors to this unique destination. Within the park, there is a free trolley tour provided to all guests, and is not connected to the Old Town Trolleys. You may especially want to stop here if you want to visit the San Diego Zoo.

Those interested in shopping will want to visit Horton Plaza, where you can find both large stores and small boutiques. You can experience San Diego’s Mexican heritage by visiting Old Town State Park, where there are great restaurants, shops, and cantinas.

My tour experience began at the Cruise Ship Terminal stop, as free parking is offered here on the weekends. You’ll be able to tour the waterfront before your tour’s beginning. At the end of my day, my party was able to enjoy a sunset bay cruise, making this stop very convenient. There are great seafood restaurants in this area, so this spot is perfect for starting your tour.

Tour guides are often fountains of information, but the tour guides on this are also entertainers, with many jokes and stories that are sure to amuse. The trolley tours promise to be more entertaining than a typical coach ride.

This is the tour to take if you want to make the most of a day in San Diego. Not only is it cheap, but it hits all the city’s hotspots. The best part is that where the tour begins and ends is all in your hands.
