San Diego Seal Tour

Get ready to blow your little one's mind when you tell them they're not taking a bus or a boat, they're going on a hydraterra -- aka a boat with wheels! That's right, start your 90-minute San Diego Seal Tour off by winding around the picturesque downtown streets and then splash into the San Diego bay where you'll set off on a history rich lesson about the city, it's military roots and all it's attractions. Memories are sure to be made on this sea and land adventure.
