As first-time visitors to San Diego, it was a good introduction to the more touristy parts of the city, and our first (of 3) drivers had a great sardonic sense of humor and told lots of interesting stories. Our favorite stop was at the beautiful Hotel del Coronado, where we got in some lovely time on the public beach. At times, at was a bit hard to hear the driver on these open-sided busses due to traffic noise, windy conditions (on parts of the route) and some loud-talking passengers.
