The Inside Scoop on the Gaslamp District - Started with outstanding bagels and spreads, then three different ethnic restaurants and ending with homemade ice cream. Throughout the tour our guide Stefan gave us an entertaining history of the Gaslamp District and San Diego itself. He also was willing to give us tips on restaurants during our stay. It was obvious that he loves his jobs and the restaurants on the tour by the way they greeted him at each place. Would recommend this tour without hesitation!

Gaslamp area 5 stop historic food dining. - Lydia L was right on top of everything pre-ordering the food before we get to the places. She also knew the historical background of a lot of the buildings that we were going by during the sightseeing portions. She is a very pleasant person to lead these tours

Great tour of the Gaslamp Quarter - Great tour! Stephan was great with the history of San Diego and the Gaslamp Quarter. Very entertaining and all the food was very good. And restaurant staff was very engaging as well. We were a small group, just us lol so we got personalized attention. We did this on second day and glad we did because Stephan gave us a lot of recommendations for food and areas to visit based on our interests.

Great Food, Great Time - This food tour was such an incredible experience! From the very first bite to the last, everything was just perfect. Our guide was so friendly and passionate, making us feel like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than on a tour. Each stop had something unique and delicious, and I loved trying dishes I might not have ordered on my own. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was lively, and I left feeling full and happy. It was the perfect mix of food, fun, and great company—I’d do it again in a heartbeat!
