Overview

Delve into the early days of San Diego on a walking tour of the Gaslamp Quarter. Once known as “The Stingaree,” the town was overrun by crime but eventually became a thriving port.

The tour starts at The Spreckles Theater and continues past several historic structures from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Each building has a riveting story behind it, from former brothels to gambling halls, with the windows and facades forming a part of the compelling narrative.

Learn from your guide about day-to-day life in this once rough-and-tumble town. You’ll even learn about that time Harry Houdini made a stop in San Diego!

Armed with insider recommendations from your guide, visit must-try restaurants in the area including shows, nightlife, and activities that take place daily.
