San Diego: Coronado Highlights Small Group Walking Tour

San Diego: Coronado Highlights Small Group Walking Tour

A trip to Coronado feels like you’re leaving behind the mainland for a dose of island living, but it’s not your typical beach town. Part resort, part Naval Base, part luxury homes for the rich, Coronado is many things to many people. Learn about the first military flying school located on the island, where sailors first learned to fly. Spy architectural gems, some of which employed the latest technology when built over a century ago. And you’ll hear what drew Charles Lindbergh, L. Frank Baum and Marilyn Monroe to this unique beach town. Pop into a local museum (subject to availability) to look at photos that bring these stories to life. Make a quick stop for a snack at a local eatery. It could be something sweet or something savory – depending on your mood – but whichever way you go, it will be locally made and delicious. Refreshed, take a stroll down to Star Park, where the “Wizard of Oz” house is located and then make your way to Coronado beach, one of the best in the country. On a clear day you can see all the way to Mexico! Stroll by multi-million dollar homes that line Ocean Blvd and you’ll hear about the people who once lived there, including the residents of the historic Spreckels Mansion. Your last stop will be at the world-famous, historic Hotel del Coronado. This icon is over 130 years old and is an American treasure, having hosted celebrities, dignitaries, and US presidents in its rooms. Take a tour around the grounds, finishing up just outside the spectacular Crown Room (home to a luxe Sunday brunch). From here, you’re free to explore on your own or stroll back down Orange Ave. to where the tour began. Your guide will make suggestions on what else to see and do, give you tips on where to eat and shop and let you know the times for the next shuttle or ferry.

We purchased the Explorer pass after looking at the choices and comparing the usual prices. We chose the 7 sites option. It was fantastic and saved us each $100. So convenient to have the passes on my phone wallet. It was easy to call up the site we were going to visit and get suggestions on least busy times, information on time to be spent, addresses, etc. Would definitely use the passes again!!

Fun, Just that the title of this activity should say “GPS/Self-guided” you wont have an in person Tour Guide. Any ways was fun and the GPS guide was perfect. A bit “risky” but the team was really clear in what to expect. Is a full 3hrs tour. You should Plan a half-day in Coronado because you wont have time to walk and chill around with this tour. Overall I really enjoyed my time.

Our self guided trip through San Diego and Coronado Island was amazing. The gps and audio directions made navigating easy. 2 hours was plenty of time to see so many amazing sites and we never felt rushed to get back. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing. Jennifer was knowledgeable and extremely articulate and tailored our tour to our interests. We would do another tour with her without hesitation!

San Diego is a beautiful city! To visit!! The people there are super nice!
