Our Driver, Dillinger, was a lot of fun and knew a lot of history of San Diego. He interspersed music with his narratives which was very entertaining.

My friend and I decided to take the San Diego Trolley tour yesterday. We are residents of San Diego (be sure and mention that for a cheaper deal) but decided to play "tourists" for a day! It was fun and entertaining. The trolley takes you all over San Diego to get a glimpse of the popular highlights of the city. There's a trolley about every 20 minutes at each stop so it's easy to explore a site and catch another trolley pulling up regularly. The only thing that was odd was that we only went around the backside of the Hotel Del. If you are a "true" tourist that is a biggy! However, you can easily exit the trolley at a nearby stop and walk over to it. Well worth seeing! Highly recommend the trolley to get a good overall education of America's finest city.

Excellent experience. Totally worth it and we got to see San Diego towns and then hopped back to the areas we wanted to spend more time in.

If you want to see a wonderful snapshot of what San Diego has to offer, you can't miss this tour! Our ride was funny and knowledgeable, and played music and had lots of interesting facts. I highly recommend this tool for anyone who wants to see the heart of San Diego!

The Old Town Trolley is a wonderful way to see the highlights of beautiful San Diego and Coronado Island. I did 2 complete circuits of the route and enjoyed the whole time.

With only one day, it was a great way to see San Diego with a group of friends. The drivers were great tour guys.
