San Diego with Kids: Family-Friendly Things to See and Do, San Diego, California

We don鈥檛 usually write about the 鈥渂est things to do with kids鈥� when visiting a new destination.

One of the absolute must-dos in San Diego for both kids and adults is visiting the zoo. While we鈥檝e been to quite a few zoos around the world, this time we wanted to try something a little different. So we headed to the聽San Diego Zoo Safari Park聽instead. Mathias was especially excited to see the tigers and cheetahs and luckily, we got to see both, along with plenty of other incredible animals on this safari-style adventure. We took a tour of the entire park and hopped on a ride through the African Plains, which turned out to be a real highlight of the day. There are numerous play areas and restaurants around the site, so you will always find a place to play or eat for the kids. ......
