The world-famous San Diego Zoo has been the gem of San Diego for more than eighty years. It was founded by Dr. Harry Wegeforth, a respected San Diego physician who rescued a few animals from a roadside zoo that had been part of the 1915-1916 Panama Pacific Exposition in Balboa Park. From those meager beginnings and the roar of one lonely lion, the San Diego Zoo has grown to enjoy world renown as a conservation institution, botanical garden, and family attraction. The zoo is also proud of its prestigious American Association of Museums and American Zoo and Aquarium Association accreditations. Southern California offers some of the most exciting sport fishing in the industry.
Space is limited to forty participants.
These fully narrated sightseeing tours on trolleys make eight stops. You can disembark along the way and enjoy Old Town, Seaport Village, Horton Plaza, Balboa Park, Coronado, and the San Diego Zoo. Although the trolley does not stop at the Sheraton, the hotel concierge can call for a shuttle to take you to the first stop. San Diego is full of fun, exciting, and educational attractions for people of all ages. Children under ten are admitted free.
