This was our first trip to San Diego and we wanted to get an overview of the most popular areas to visit. We were able to accomplish our goal with this tour. We visited all the sites on our wish list in 6 hours and had time to walk around and explore at each one. Our favorite was La Jolla! I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Diego.
