Getting Around San Diego

Airline
The most conventional way of getting into San Diego is by plane. With 22 major airline carriers arriving each day, this is the easiest form of transportation. The airport is also conveniently located just 10 minutes from downtown San Diego and near major airports.

Bus
The metro transit service provides transportation throughout all of San Diego County. You can travel by bus to/from the airport to all major shopping centers, public attractions, beaches and hotels. The San Diego Trolley runs every 15 minutes during the day and 30 minutes in the evening. This is an ideal way to get around with no traffic and easy access to all major sites.

Taxi
Taxicab stands are located at the airport and around most major sites and hotels. The fair is displayed on the meter and will include a flag drop charge plus a per-mile and/or per-hour charge. As with most major cities, cabs leaving the airport all charge the same.

Amtrak
Traveling to/from San Diego or around the Pacific coastline, Amtrak is a budget conscious option.

Car Rental
Car rentals from all major car rental companies are available throughout town or at the airport.

Other Options
For those feeling adventurous, take a unique form of transportation: pedicabs, gondola rides with your sweetheart, horse-drawn carriages through beautiful downtown, a ferry through the Pacific, or a water taxi around the coast.
