What To Expect

Gaslamp Quarter

Often called the Historic Heart of San Diego, the Gaslamp Quarter is the main dining and entertainment district of the city. With more than 150 bars and restaurants and 94 registered historic buildings, this nightlife playground has a lot to see and do, as well as a fascinating past. The Brothels, Bites and Booze tour will introduce you to the beginnings of San Diego as a port town – learn why it became one of the more notorious red light districts of its time, and find out how this once-undesired neighborhood became a fun and vibrant nightlife destination for both locals and visitors. After meeting your guide, you’ll embark on a journey of scandalous tales, unique cocktails and local cuisine. On the tour, you’ll make new friends, hear interesting stories, sing karaoke and explore new tastes at local restaurants*.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

fun walk around the gaslamp quarter sampling food and beer and getting tips on what else to visit. The history was enjoyable and Stefan was an entertaining and animated guide. we got an extra dose of Irish/Mexican/american history and a shot of tequila after Stefan and a pub owner swapped stories on the street.

Thank you for the insight! We are excited to find you had a great time in the Gaslamp with Stefan. He's certainly a "man about town".

The guide was full of historical remarks and was very engaging and animated. The wedding laces we visited were cool and the staff highly accommodating
