Possibly planning a trip from seeing some baseball games in Phoenix and then heading to the stadium in San Diego for a few more games. Reading above sounds like it takes about 6 hrs by car. Has anyone experienced this and is it worth the ride? Unfortunately we are talking about the beginning of August when the heat is scorching hot.

Our next trip to San Diego will include a day at the zoo and dinner in the "gas lamp" district. The Hyatt at Mission Beach is da bomb. There's a cool 'lil bar & grill not too far from there...right on the beach. It's called the "Wave House". Rock 'n' Roll, people watching, and these cool little wave machines that people "surf" in.

My post that you responded to is history (you didn't check the dates... new poster revived this thread ), but this is good advice for the new poster. About six months later I went to San Diego a second time using the Maricopa route. Not through Ak Chin/ 84 as you did though-- but rather taking AZ-238 from Maricopa to Gila Bend, via Mobile. Even though my map shows it as a dirt road, that's out of date... it's a fully paved highway the entire way, paralelling the train tracks. I still think AZ-85 is faster, but if you live in the east valley and are trying to beat rush hour traffic it could be worth it.

On google maps, it states the distance from Phoenix to San Diego is 355 mles away on I-8W, it states the approximate driving time by car is 5 hours and 25 minutes. This is assuming you are going the speed limit. If drive 10 miles over the speed limit like most people, you will make it to San Diego in under 5 hours. If you are being a speed demon, it's closer to 4 hours. And if you live in the south valley (Chandler), it's even closer. I just got back from San Diego and remember reading how insane responses about the drive times.

It is on the US side. Just before you cross into Mexico on the right. Distance from Phoenix to San Diego It is a huge, fenced, paved parking area run by the native American community on the border there. It is just a few steps from the lot to the pedestrian border crossing turnstile. Going in you just walk through the gate/turnstile. No one asks for a passport or anything. Coming back you follow the walkways into a US border patrol area where they scan your passport, maybe ask a question or two. The customs office is across the street from the parking lot. It doesn't get much easier. You won't be alone. Even in the off season there are dozens and dozens of people going there for dental work each day.
