    This company does it for several big cities. I'll definitely use them in the future. Melissa is a machine with her running. Not sure how she kept up with all the walking we did.

    😂 I cracked up at the transition from the cannibal museum to eating lunch. Using the tour to highlight some of your other videos is a great idea and you did it well. Beautiful ending to the video

    Trying to play around the edit to get a format for bus and Trolley tours. I was going to make a bunch of short videos but seem to fit better interweaved in the bus tour. Glad you liked it.

    What a great way to see the whole city and not have to pay for transportation multiple times! I love heat lamps when it’s a little chilly too! Your sister did awesome! Gorgeous ocean views especially at sunset!

    You killed Melissa’s time with those hugs 😂. The trolley might be the way to go… takes you to the top spots, cheaper than Uber, and all that full parallel parking is a no go!

    You are absolutely right about that. I was thinking the same thing. I'm the worst at parallel parking. I look like Austin Powers trying to parallel park.

    They have this same Trolley in many cities. I wish I did this in Washington DC. Would have saved me a lot of walking or looking for parking.

Also, not you saying you were hungry after I talked about the cannibal museum 💀 The tears at the end was not expected 😭 God definitely blessed me in the sibling department 🫶🏽

    You did great. Someone in the comments said you have a vlogging voice. Glad I was able to pull many things we did into one video where it fit. Now I want to visit that Cannibal Museum. I’m guessing it is not kid friendly. See you in Pigeon Forge!

    We need to start taking advantage of these hop on, hop off services. Super handy. Just think Carl, if we pooled our money...we still couldn't get one of those boats, lol. Never mind! So glad that you have the opportunities to spend time with your family. Not much better than that brother!

    I just recently heard of these type of trolleys. This same company does it for many places including DC. that would have come in handy. We need a lot more Patreons before we get a KZread Boat 😂. We are headed to Pigeon Forge area with my sister next month, so we are excited.

    Your sister is a natural. She should be your cohost more lol.. I know she lives in a different state, but she has that voice for vlogging. That trolley tour looks fun, easy way to see San Diego. Go Melissa, she runs more than I do haha.. I feel tired already just watching. I remember that zoo adventure! That's a great spot for sunset views. I'd fly my drone there lol..

    I agree. So it was a no brainer letting her to take the lead. I told her while I was editing I felt like this was for her channel and I was just editor 😂. We have been doing a bunch of family vacations with both our families so you'll see more of her for sure. I wanted to fly the drone bad but it was way too windy that day.

    Aww how amazing! Great idea! Little Italy yes!! I am in the big Italy ha,ha! Beautiful Bay! Yes, there must be a Maritime Museum in a place like that! Nice Melissa! You rock girl! Seaport Village it's a place I would love to see! Well there are few places on this planet that I wouldn't like to see! Go Melissa! Running on the hill, yep, not my thing! :) How did you do that trolley on the map thing? I still need to learn those things! The zoo! That was very interesting! Cannibals museums?? Then you got hungry ha,ha! Italy... my love! That Italy doesn't look like the real Italy ha,ha! I cannot wait to visit USA!! Amazing sunset!! Well done Carl, was a top video! xx

    So glad you noticed the Trolley moving on the map. I did a screen shot of the map from the website. I then used a stock trolley photo and removed background. And from there I used key framing in order to have the trolley move exactly where I wanted to. Getting better at it. Want to incorporate it more. Made my day that you noticed. I end up spending a lot of time on little things like that.

    What a great way to see SanDiego. (Saint James in translation) Wow! Move over Carl, I think you have a new tour guide. Coronado Island is where "Some Like Hot" was filmed. I have been in that Hotel. Beautiful! Oh No! A Cannibal Museum Cannot imagine what there would be to see. Yum! Italian Food! Lovely sunset and words to finish off the tour of gratitude. Thank you Carl, have an awesome weekend.

    great Video, Do the trolleys go in both directions? Can I stop in one area and take another trolley in the other direction or would I need to travel the whole circle (25 miles) to get back?
