San Diego Zoo

by – Alex McCarty, Tour Manager, North America

Your free day in San Diego will be filled with your choice of two of the finest facilities on the planet, where some of the most exotic animals known to man call home!

For a glimpse of lions, elephants, camels and several scores of species of birds living in faithfully re-created replicas of their natural habitats (like the Serengeti or the Amazon), the Zoo is a world-renowned destination for animal-lovers of all ages. Among other features, your ticket includes a ride on the ‘Skyfari’ tram, an elevated cable car that skims the treetops, providing aerial views of some of nature’s most amazing wonders. And don’t forget to make a visit to the snake house, for a healthy dose of the heebegeebies!
