About this tour

Trade Los Angeles traffic for a day exploring San Diego’s historic districts, waterfront, and coastal scenery on a private tour for 1–4 people. Your driver picks you up at your location in the Los Angeles area and takes you south, with a stop at La Jolla’s beautiful beach. If you’re lucky, you may spot seals basking along the shore.

In San Diego, visit notable sights including Old Town, Downtown, Balboa Park, Coronado Island, and Seaport Village. The itinerary can be adjusted to accommodate your preferred places, so message the provider before booking to discuss your plans. Travel is in a 2017 Toyota Prius, with pickup and drop-off within the Los Angeles area included. Service outside that area is available for an additional fee; tickets and meals are not included.

See San Diego at your own pace on a private Los Angeles tour, and make the most of a full day on the coast. Contact the provider before booking to shape your sightseeing stops.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 5.00 from 4 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Los Angeles
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3. Top 34% in Los Angeles means it ranks in the top 34% of tours in Los Angeles by this score.
