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*.

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

Marissa was our guide and she was awesome. The stories were fun and I wanted to some more research on a couple of them. The good and drinks were good; especially the 1st one the Greek fusion. The only suggestion I would make to a microphone. There was 8 in my group; but I could see where a larger group may have a hard time hearing. Overall; it was a great experience!
