Combined Suggestions: Public transit, many options, little choice
  • Tip Rating:
  • San Diego has lots of options in regards to transportation from bicycle to bus. But, most of the public transit in this area has some serious gaps. This is especially true in regards to getting from south of I-8 to north of I-8 (which divides the city). Getting from west to east is a bit easier with the trolley. Also, getting to the border is farily easy using the same method. The trolley is your best bets for getting around the south and east or west end of the county. The coaster is a good bet for traveling to the northern end of the county, but schedules are skimpy. Call MTS for more details.

  • Tip Rating:
  • I flew into San Diego and had no problems getting in and out of airport. The best way to get around San Diego is renting a car. If your not familiar with the city I would highly recommend getting one of those rental cars with the GPS system. I had one and it got me everywhere I needed to go as well as helping me find random things to see while driving around.

  • Tip Rating:
  • There is a large airport, also you can drive, and bus in. In old Town you can walk around in. Balboa Park a bike would be handy. A car is very handy to go to the diffreent parts in the city.

    Combined Suggestions: How to get around? - general info
  • Tip Rating:
  • Do you need a car in San Diego? NO, you don't! What a nice surprise - the public transportation is effective and comfortable. You can even easily get to Mexican border and walk to Mexican border city - Tijuana. What are public means of transportation in San Diego? - trolley - bus - FREE Balboa Park Tram (inside Balboa park) - in the ZOO (additional fare) Express Buses, Guided Bus Tours, Skyfari What else? - taxes, - horse cabs (in a downtown), - bicycles, - your car, - your feet :-)). For disabled persons: Strollers, wheelchairs and motorized wheelchairs are available at the ZOO and in some bigger supermarkets (like Wall-Mart). DETAILS: in my next tips, first on DRIVING. Many of them apply to other American states as well. I am going to transfer them to my USA and/or US states pages, but not yet :-)).

    Combined Suggestions: Best way to get TO San Diego...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Best way to get TO San Diego is to fly in if you're coming from the East Coast. Public transportation is very reliable (most main routes run every 15 minutes during the week and will run until like 1AM) and you've got a gaggle of cab services to call. Good old standby: Yellow Cab. Reasonably priced: Checkers Cab.

  • Tip Rating:
  • We flew into the San Diego airport and then rented a car. I would say renting a car is necessary--things are spread out quite a bit, unless you absolutely are not going to be leaving the center of the city. If you are staying in the city, there are buses and taxis available.

    Combined Suggestions: Depending on where you live...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Depending on where you live you can fly or drive to San Diego. Rent a car, take a taxi, or take advantage of the new trolley. The Blue Line Trolley takes you from Misson San Diego all the way to Tijuana. The Orange Line departs from the Gaslamp district and takes you to El Cajon. There are many stops along the way. Call 800-COMMUTE for trolley info.
