San Diego attractions can be divided into two categories: flora and fauna. Which San Diego attractions you choose to explore will depend on your means of transportation. Since San Diego attractions tend to be spread out from one another, your best bet is to rent a car. If you're traveling with kids, don't sweat it. San Diego attractions are very kid-friendly especially San Diego's top attraction, the San Diego Zoo.
Take a leisurely 3-hour scenic drive through central San Diego to enjoy this Southern California city's lush flora. Crack open the window and let the scent of citrus trees fill your nose. Follow the white seagull on road signs with a blue and yellow background to San Diego attractions such as the Harbor and the Embarcadero. If you're hearing a chorus of 'are we there yet?' from the backseat, chances are you're en route to the San Diego Zoo. San Diego hotels near Balboa Park put you at the doorstep of this world-famous 100-acre zoo. With nearly 4,000 animals of 800 different species roaming in captivity this is one of the San Diego attractions nature lovers do not want to miss. Hop on an open-air tram and take a 35-minute, 3-mile tour of all the exhibits. Get on and off at will on the Kangaroo Bus Tours or soar 170 feet above ground on the Skyfari Ride but expect to wait on line. With animals so close and out in the open, kids and adults alike are bound to get the urge to pet the animals.
