Step 5: Plan Ahead

By Betsy Malloy, About.com

I don't advocate planning what you're going to every second of your vacation, a few advance plans may make your trip more enjoyable.

Be a Smart San Diego Tourist
You'll find tips here about what reservations to make in advance, how to save money, dress for the weather, get around and eat well.

Dinner Reservations
For most San Diego restaurants, you won't need advance reservations. However, if you're planning on enjoying any of the city's top spots, or have a special occasion in mind, these resources include an online reservation service.

Buy a Map
You'll find some nice maps online, but for getting around you can't beat a good printed one. (unless you have a GPS)
