Love the tour, it started on time! Tour guide Brad had a lot of knowledge and was funny! We were shown a lot of cool areas of this beautiful ball park!
It was the best tour we took all week! Loved it. The guides were funny, and knowledgeable. They were also very patient with slow walkers. The park is amazing with a fascinating history. Highly recommend!
My husband enjoyed this behind the sence tour. He was comparing to fenway the whole time. Lol. Good time.
Bob & Cindy were great guides. Petco is cool park to tour because its 20ish years old, but they upgrade yearly.
This was a great tour, Ted took us everywhere and gave us behind the scenes insights, team history, local connections and much more!
Ted is an excellent ballpark tour guide, recommend asking for him to lead your tour!
Very fun experience and the scooter was easy to drive! At first you will need to get used to it, but after a couple minutes it becomes pretty natural
If you want to know everything about Petco Park this is the only way to go!! Fun & engaging tour guides & the facilities are AMAZING!! If you’re in San Diego it’s a must!
The guide was really knowledgeable and fun. The tour was very accommodating to those who struggle with stairs or have strollers/wheelchairs. We saw things we would never see otherwise. It exceeded our expectations!
Bought for husband’s birthday present. He loved it! The best optimal photo of the field is up in the Gallagher Chairman’s Club behind home plate. Ted was a great guide! Kept it fun, good pace for everyone, and good information!
This was a great tour to learn about the history of Petco park and the Padres! Our tour guide Karen was engaging, informative, and passionate about what she does! Highly recommend this tour!
No tour in the dugouts. They were setting up for a future concert and we feel that the tour wasn’t a full experience.
It was a cool location. Also, our tour guy was nice, but we didn’t need to learn all of him (over and over).
Our tour guide was extremely valuable and we were engaged with valuable information about the stadium, which was so great! We truly enjoyed the tour!
Baseball history buffs will love the tour. Time went very fast. Would have loved to go into dugout, as mentioned in description, not just look in from the fan seats.
This experience is a must if you are visiting Downtown San Diego. Your guide Thor made the experience memorable, providing deep historical insight and stories from the Team. PETCO Park truly is the best ballpark around!
Fantastic tour filled with great info of the ball park, including all the off limit places and food for games
Karen is the best! She knows and loves the park and the Padres. Great tour for anyone who loves baseball
This is a must see tour. Even if you are not a baseball fan, it is well worth it. Our tour guide Jack was great. He gave so much background on the ballpark and how it fit in San Diego.
The tour was great. Our tour guide Karen, was amazing. We learned many things about the ballpark we wouldn't have known otherwise.
Our tour guide was named John, he was friendly, funny, gave us a lot of info about the team, the park, the city. He was very easy to talk to. He made the tour fun. Check in with super easy. If you are visiting from out of town and staying in that area, it’s super simple just to walk to the park. I came from Phoenix, when I left it was 105 outside and in San Diego, it was 70° so the change in weather was amazing.
I would highly recommend taking a tour of the ballpark
Our family of five had an outstanding experience touring Petco Park, thanks to our incredible guide, Ismael. From the very beginning, his energy, knowledge, and enthusiasm made the tour engaging for every one of us.
He had a great way of connecting with both adults and kids, sharing stories, fun facts, and behind‑the‑scenes details that made each stop feel meaningful. Whether we were in the dugout, the locker room, the press box, or taking in the views from the upper levels, Ismael made sure we understood what made each area special.
What impressed us most was how personal he made the experience. He learned our names, encouraged questions, and made sure no one felt rushed. It genuinely felt like he cared about giving our family a memorable visit.
Petco Park is already a beautiful stadium, but having someone as passionate and knowledgeable as Ismael guiding us made the tour exceptional. We left with great memories and a deeper appreciation for the ballpark.
If you’re visiting San Diego, we highly recommend this tour — and if you’re lucky enough to get Ismael, you’re in for something truly special.
The tour was amazing! Brad was so knowledgeable and kept us engaged the whole time!! I’m not a big baseball fan but my boyfriend is and he loved it!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Petco Park! Our guide, Jan, was fantastic—friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. She shared fascinating stories and behind-the-scenes details about the park’s history, its day-to-day operations, the players, the organization, and the many people who work behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly.
Petco Park itself is an impressive and beautiful ballpark, and Jan’s enthusiasm made the experience even better. We learned so much and gained a whole new appreciation for the Padres organization. As huge Phillies fans, we never expected to leave San Diego cheering for another ballpark, but we definitely left as Petco Park fans! Highly recommend this tour to any baseball fan visiting the area. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Its a beautiful park and our tour guide, Karen, love of the Padres was evident. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It added to our game experience later in the day.
Mo was our tour guide. Being a San Diego native, he is very knowledgeable about the team, the park and San Diego in general. Very nice guy and excellent tour guide.
We saw so much of the ballpark and learned about the history of the Padres and MLB. Our guide, Theodore, was amazing! Highly recommend! A must do for baseball fans.
The tour was a birthday gift to family members who are HUGE SD Padres fans. They had the best time. Truly experienced parts of the park they had never seen. Highly recommend the tour, they had a blast.
Be prepared to walk a good amount of stairs. Not bad, just be ready for it so wear good shoes. The guide was awesome and very knowledgeable. Joke were funny and he took us at a good pace to enjoy the trip
Great tour with our guide Melanie of Petco Park. Lots of history and behind the scenes! 10% off at the team shop too!
Great tour! Loved the stories about the architecture, both at the stadium as well as surrounding it. Enjoyed seeing areas I would never would have seen and never will be in
Great views of the park and knowledgeable guide. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++===========================
