Get away from the crowds and the tourist traps by joining San Diego Walks on small-group walking tours throughout the city. Locals know the best places to grab a bite or a craft beer - with or without a view - and our local, knowledgeable and passionate guides are ready to show off their city. Join them and find out why it will be your favorite day in sunny San Diego!
Want to tour the city with a new local friend? San Diego Walks knows San Diego as only locals do, and our knowledgeable guides want to show you around neighborhoods like Balboa Park, Liberty Station and Coronado and Old Town. You won't get lost in a crowd as our tours are small (1-15 guests), and depart five days a week. We get off the beaten path and take advantage of some of the city's best locally-owned restaurants with included food or drinks (no chain restaurants or bad souvenirs!). You'll learn about the people who shaped San Diego's past, and what lies ahead for its future.
