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*.

Amanda was extremely fun, knowledgeable and passionate about the district. I took my teenage daughter on this trip, of course she couldn’t have the alcoholic drinks, but I did.. The first restaurant she took us was Mezza, the food and drink was on point. Decent size portion and the drink was a regular size. The other three places Did not serve generous portions as the first, but it was tasty. I will definitely recommend this tour to family with older children. It was interesting and informative. My family and I really enjoyed it.
