Jim was a very attentive guide. He is Renaissance man with a good knowledge of San Diego history. He also knew a lot about Ben Franklin, too (ha). From Gas Lamp District to Coronado to Old Town to Little Italy and Mt Soledad, we crammed it all in! Sign up for this tour!

On the San Diego half-day highlights tour, you will visit many of the city’s major historical sites, neighbourhoods and parks, including Balboa Park, the elegant architecture of the Gaslamp Quarter, the Old Town’s rich culture and the beautiful coastal stretch of some of San Diego's beaches. Through the local insight of your private guide, you will be introduced to some of San Diego’s lesser-known corners with plenty of opportunities to grab some fabulous photographs of the city’s most picturesque landmarks, be it quaint Victorian streets, bloom-filled gardens, or the stunning cliff-strewn coastline that are home to seals, marine birds and rugged sea caves. Please note that the Botanical Garden in Balboa Park is closed for major renovation until the end of 2024.
