This is a fun way to see some of the history of San Diego! Josh is passionate about history, and kept us (my kids ages 17 and 20 and me) engaged the whole time. Highly recommended

This was such an enjoyable and interesting tour! It's an easy walk to all the stops and I learned a lot about the history of San Diego which made for a more memorable trip. One of my favorite stops was getting to see the old bank vault. This is definitely a tour worth taking. Josh is a great tour guide!
