Gaslamp Bar Crawl

Most people walk the Gaslamp Quarter for the restaurants and never learn how San Diego got here. This tour tells that story on the blocks where it happened. It starts in 1867, when Alonzo Horton bought hundreds of acres of empty waterfront land for next to nothing and bet the city’s future was here, not in Old Town. He was right. A local storyteller leads a small group past the Balboa Theatre, the 1920s movie palace still putting on shows; the Louis Bank of Commerce, a jewel of the 1880s boom; the Callan Hotel; and the spot where San Diego’s original zoo began. We visit the Horton Grand, a Victorian hotel taken apart and rebuilt brick by brick, and finish at the Gaslamp Museum in the Davis-Horton House, the oldest house still standing downtown. Easy pace, plenty of photo stops, and 90 minutes of stories you won’t get from a plaque.

What are people saying about San Diego

Aditya_K, Oct 2026

A dream come true!

Top notch commentary and navigation! Loved every moment of the adventure! 7 humpback whales were spotted and they put up quite a show ! Saw Sealions and birds too but everything paled in comparison to the humpbacks. The crew were very knowledgeable, interactive , and lively ! For future visitors: Please remember to take medicine for seasickness beforehand if you are prone to it .

Whales, dolphins, sea lions galore!

For all the nay sayers who you say you won’t see any whales- then all I can say is they didn’t pick the right company to take them! The crew was incredible and YES we saw several whales and so many dolphins we couldn’t count them all! Shout out to the crew that took us out to see all this beautiful wildlife! Sarah you’re the best!

Spooky San Diego!

My wife and I love spooky stuff! Cowboy Pete definitely delivers! He is very knowledgeable about the spooky bits of Sam Diego. The door affords the opportunity to get in and off at different haunted locations all around San Diego, which we both loved! Not only that, it afforded us the ability to take a peek at places we wanted to spend more time at later!

Super fun! After the...

Super fun! After the first few minutes, getting to know the ins and outs of the go kart it was a blast zipping around downtown San Diego. Surprisingly it felt safe and cars were careful to give us plenty of room. The Talking GPS was very informative and helpful making sure we stayed on course.

San Diego Zoo 1 Day Pass Any Day Ticket

Lisa_H, Oct 2026

San Diego Zoo is beautiful

What can I say? I've wanted to come to this zoo forever. I love giraffes and koala bears! The zoo layout is perfect. The exhibits are amazing and fun for families. The little school kids were there too and so excited. The bus tour is a must! Explore all the protected wildlife and hear the stories about the plants and how the zoo was formed. The staff there is so friendly and guide you if you want to see specific animals. It's paradise! Getting there was easy and snacks and food vendors as well as stores are right there. Loved it!

San Diego Whale/Dolphin Watching Cruise Aboard Luxury Vessel

Hope_M, Sept 2026

A great ride

Great crew, pleasant ride and happy to share fun facts galore. Saw “hundreds” of dolphins, sea lions, a shark and even a submarine emerge from the water. No whales to no fault of crew. Whales are tricky devils and sometimes hide. the boat was super clean with plenty of room to move about as they don’t book so heavy like other excursions. All in all, great fun.

Service provided as expected. Great experience!

The service was provided exactly as advertised. Staff was friendly and helpful. Good bar for soda, snacks and drinkgs. They kept reggae music to give a bit of a festive vibe. At the right spot and right moment, they turned the boat perfectly to get a great view of the sunset. Highly recommended!
