Well, if you haven't, you can correct that deficiency at McClellan Palomar Airport. It's just a few miles from downtown Carlsbad and offers a fantastic alternative to busy San Diego International Airport, if you're headed out this way. It's newly remodeled and services a mix of private jets, charters, and a handful of commercial flights. United Airlines flies to/from San Francisco and Denver and American Airlines flies to/from Phoenix. I dropped off my son and daughter-in-law yesterday for their flight home to San Francisco, and the experience of driving into the airport and terminal was a lot easier than what I've run into at a few shopping malls. We have quite a few relatives around Carlsbad and the North Country, and I can't wait to fly into this friendly low-stress airport on our next visit.

This railroad station in Downtown Carlsbad serves the Coaster computer rail line between Oceanside…read moreand Downtown San Diego. It has a single side platform for the single set of tracks that go through Carlsbad. Overall, I think this is a very nice station. North County Transit District buses also stop here, most importantly in my book, Route 101 that runs on Historic 101 between Oceanside and UTC in La Jolla. There are over 400 parking spaces at the station, which is a short walk to restaurants, coffee shops, retail shops, and more. The Carlsbad Village station is not the historic Carlsbad station that was used by Santa Fe Railroad until 1960. That station still stands about 1/10th of a mile south.

Pretty safe station to be at when heading towards the San Diego Depot. We went on 7/24/2025 during…read moreComic-Con and boarded the 1:49pm train which was not crowded at all. We paid $32.50 in cash for round trip tickets for 2 adults and 1 child, easily accessible via the vending machine and not too difficult to understand. The ride itself felt smooth and was a nice scenic route to see sights such as the Del Mar Racetrack and of course, the Pacific Ocean (be sure to sit on the right side for a better view). Seats were not too bad, even had rows facing sideways available and appeared clean. The train passengers seemed nice and I didn't feel too uneasy, it was a comfortable train ride, felt like we were coasting on the Coaster.

If you have any questions about your trip, she's your go to person. It is so much easier to work with Mary than to sort through all the cruise and travel info myself.

She was the first travel agent either of us had engaged, thinking that they're just for the wealthy. Well we couldn't have been more incorrect!! Not only did she get us an unbeatable price for our trip, but she also upgraded us to a view room in a great location on the ship (below the main dining room and far from all the loud and obnoxious activities). Upon our return home, I noticed a few ads that were offering 'deep discounted deals' for the exact same trip we took, but they were still above what we paid and didn't offer as much on-board credits as Mary was able to procure for us. The process was seamless also, as she presented us with the best options for a few different itineraries, while providing us with personal insight on each regarding the pro's and con's. We really appreciated all of the time she spent with us, and all of the patience she displayed while we were weighing our options carefully. We couldn't have gone wrong either way, but we were especially picky because it was such a special occasion. And she took the headaches of all the scheduling, etc out of the equation so we could spend our time planning the fun stuff. In the end, we had the perfect trip, and we owe a lot of the credit to Mary for helping us choose and for getting us such an affordable price. Clients for life, for sure.

The camps were exceptional, offering a great variety of activities, and we were able to see so many beautiful animals in their natural habitats. One of the biggest highlights was being among 20 lions--but there were so many other unforgettable moments, it's honestly impossible to count them all. Visiting the schools was another truly special experience. And Victoria Falls left us speechless! From start to finish, the camps were first class, and we were treated exceptionally well. The guides' knowledge was beyond impressive--we learned so much every day. This was our third trip with Global Basecamps, and there's no doubt we'll continue booking with them for future adventures. We can't say enough about everything Valentina did to make our trips so memorable.
