Great experience with an awesome knowledgeable tour guide, Levi was the best! - We had a great experience with Levi, he was easy to locate at our meeting point and very knowledgeable on the history of the Gaslamp quarters. He went above and beyond with pictures and details that truly captured the history and essence of San Diego. The rest of the group had to leave and we finished the tour with him alone, he really gave us a personal experience and made it a lot of fun! We highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed!

Very Good Time - This tour was a blast! Levi is a great guide and a knowledgable historian. He was fun to be around. We went to Tivoli Bar, Bay City Brewing, Knotty Barrel, and Villians Brewing. Each one was a great choice. Villians was the perfect spot to end the tour. Thank you Levi

Great Time in San Diego - Great Tour! Went with a small group of friends before a bachelor party and was perfect way to have a few beers and get some education in before the weekend. Connor was funny and informative and San Diego weather is perfect for walking between bar to bar. Would highly recommend.
