Description:

This sightseeing tour shows you the many sides of the San Diego area—from naturally scenic La Jolla to culture-rich Balboa Park and historic Old Town.

Start your journey through San Diego with an outing to La Jolla to take in the area's stunning natural setting. The coast here draws comparisons to the Mediterranean and makes an excellent subject for pictures. Marine life is drawn to La Jolla Bay's deep waters, so keep your eyes out for dolphins and seals sharing the waves with surfers.

Back in the city, pay a visit to Balboa Park, a 1,200-acre (485-ha) urban park nestled next to downtown. A cultural and recreational center, Balboa Park's grassy expanse houses museums, a gym, an array of gardens, and even the San Diego Zoo.

A trip to Old Town lets you see where the city started out back in 1769. Shops, museums, and award-winning restaurants here not only embrace but also help preserve San Diego's heritage. Old Town's historic buildings hearken back to the period between 1821 and 1871, when San Diego was developing as a city.
