San Diego Port of Call (Top 5 Things to Do on Foot!) 

Great overview for someone arriving on a cruise ship. I know this was meant to be a "Top 5," but here are a few other thoughts/suggestions: First, people often get confused about the Old Town Trolley Tours (bus) which you highlighted in your video and the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) trolleys (light rail). While San Diego's transit system isn't world-class, it is effective and inexpensive ($2,50 per ride for adults/$1.25 per ride for seniors). You can access the MTS trolley system by walking to the Santa Fe Train Depot transportation hub about 7 minutes from the piers. From there, you can take the Green Line to Little Italy and Old Town going north, and Seaport Village, the Convention Center, the Gaslamp Quarter, and Petco Park going south. The Blue Line can take you all the way to La Jolla going north and to the U.S.-Mexico border going south. Trolleys generally run every 15 minutes. The Santa Fe Depot also connects you to Amtrak, Coaster (our regional commuter train that runs to Oceanside), and multiple MTS bus routes. If you want to get to the Zoo and Balboa Park (the Zoo is in Balboa Park), take the Rapid 215 bus from the Santa Fe Depot to the stop at Zoo Place and Park Blvd., right outside the entrance to the Zoo. It will get you there in about 20-25 minutes, and buses generally run every 15 or so minutes during the day. To ride the trolley or bus, it's best to download the Pronto app to your smart phone, create an account, and scan the QR code each time you board. You can buy tickets for the trolley at kiosks on the platform, and you can pay cash (exact change) on buses. (You can also purchase a reloadable Pronto card at the trolley kiosks where you load a certain dollar value onto the card and tap it as you board. The advantage to having a Pronto Card or the app is that transfers are free within 2 hours of first use, and you will never be charged more than a day pass ($6.00) no matter how many times you use it in a day. Without Pronto, you're paying $2,50 per ride.) Also at the Broadway Street Pier is the Coronado Ferry run by Flagship Cruises. It's a short 20-minute ride across the harbor to the Coronado Ferry Landing with its great views of the skyline from across the bay, shops, and restaurants. It's a 1.7 mile walk from there to the famous Hotel del Coronado and the Coronado Beach.

Great info. Thanks for posting.
