Great way to see the city - Had a 2 day ticket and used it to see a lot of the city. We were able to hop on & hop off a the various locations. The guides were really knowledgeable about the city and also offer recommendations on restaurants and things to do. I would definitely recommend as something to do whilst in the city.

Fun on the trolley - Great way to see Highlights of San Diego in one day . We started at Old Town - great free parking and shopping . We got off 3 stops and walked around at these sites . We liked Sea Port village and had lunch along the water and played the outside playground by the Children’s Museum . Enjoyed an ice cream cone at Coronado island and beach . Tour guides were very engaged and interesting in their discussion. The playing of music was perfectly timed with noisy rides

Great Experience! - I highly recommend for a great tour that hits all of the major highlights of the city! Jack was my tour guide, and he was very knowledgeable and added his own unique, personal knowledge of the city to his tour. The ability to hop on and off at any of the sites was great to be able to spend time at the location(s) of interest. The trains pass through each location every 20 minutes too, so you don’t have to wait too long if you want to get back on and go to the next stop.

BEST HOHO TROLLEY COMPANY - BEST HO HO TROLLEY TOUR. This is a step above every other ho ho tour. 1. You will have a live commentater who is also the driver. Nick was also quite funny. No earbuds are required. I loved the open-air feeling. 2. There is some recorded information, but it is put in a fun way with guest appearances from the Terminator and others as well as musical interludes, which match the area of town you are going through 3. This tour goes all over San Diego and explains the history of development with amazing viscas of Tijuana on a good day as you cross the bridge. 4. There are a lot of really great spots to stop and is on a two hour loop. especially Southport, Balboa Park, and Little Italy. Next time, i'm getting pizza there. 5. At every stop, the driver was in communication with dispatch to confirm the number of people waiting at each stop. At one point, there was a large group waiting, and a new trolley was ordered to pick them up. Nick let the group know that there was a trolley ten minutes behind. I call that great responsive service. I definitely plan on doing this tour again when I have more time to hop on and hop off. i would recommend this company's trolley tours to anyone in any city.

So much to see - Easy ticket purchase and gracious customer service given by all employees encountered. Our driver/guide was Benjamin who, while providing interesting information in an entertaining way, also exhibited care for his customers as they entered or exited his trolley. So glad we got to get this overview of San Diego our first day here.

Worth it! - Our tour guide, Gary, was excellent and really made the tour entertaining! Great personality. I did the night tour and we were able to get off the trolley and see the Coronado bridge lit up which was cool! He provided great facts about the history of San Diego! I totally recommend and the night tour if possible. Kevin ( Chicago )
