Frank was very knowledgeable but he kept turning his head in the direction of attractions he was pointing out or towards passengers vs keeping his eyes on the road.

Loved it! Loved our tour guides. We went around twice and had 4 guides. I learned something new from each one of them even though they were essentially using the same script.

This was a perfect way to get an overview of the San Diego area and allow one to get off and explore some areas in a bit more detail. We only had a short time in San Diego so this was an ideal way to get that overview. Guides/drivers were fantastic.
