San Diego has two impressive statistics:
1. San Diego is considered to have an ideal year round climate, and is one of the most beautiful cities in the United States, and the world. 2. San Diego is the largest conglomerate of United States Naval and Marine bases in the world. Most tours are only here for a few short days, therefore I always suggest our San Diego Sightseeing & Luncheon Tour. The first full day following registration is an ideal time to get acquainted with San Diego. San
