Step by Step

An amphibious bus tour is an original way to explore San Diego. Crossing streets and waters, you will have the opportunity to see the main attractions of the metropolis up close. During the tour, an expert guide will tell you about the history of this Californian town. The tour lasts approximately 90 minutes and passes near the following points:

  • Shelter Island - A peninsula a few kilometres from the city, famous for its marina, Hawaiian-style buildings and quaint restaurants. It is a perfect destination for outdoor activities or a family holiday.
  • Cabrillo National Monument - The national park that honours explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo. He was the first European to land in California.
  • Naval Air Station North Island - The naval base that gave birth to the U.S. Army Corps. It is located on the Coronado Peninsula and still houses large aircraft carriers and military vessels.
  • Naval Base Point Loma - A US Navy base, which has occupied this strategic point since the mid-19th century.
  • Scripps Institution of Oceanography - A science centre studying solutions to the environmental challenges of the future. The campus is adjacent to the famous La Jolla neighbourhood.
  • SeaWorld - A mix of aquarium and theme park, just a stone's throw from the waterfront. Best known for its marine animal shows, Bayside Skyride cable car and Journey to Atlantis roller coaster.
  • Vacation Isle - A small island in the lake at Mission Bay Park. It is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike.

The amphibious bus tour is especially suitable for people travelling with children and is available all year round.
