Balboa Park: App guided
San Diego, Pacific Coast Highway
About This Activity
Spend a half-day exploring the top sights. You won't be able to see everything, but with the help of your App Guide, you can pick and choose your own "must-sees." This is recommended for those looking to pack the most of Balboa Park in a limited time or to couple sightseeing with a different half-day activity like the San Diego Zoo, which also sits in the sprawling park.
