Charming Coronado is a short ride from downtown San Diego, but it feels like a world away! We'll stroll the streets and look at multi-million dollar homes, beautiful landscaping, unique architecture, and, of course, the beach. After a quick stop for a sweet treat we'll continue to explore this beach town that was home to artists, aviators and innovators.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
We'll explore this beach town and delve into its history with artists, aviators and innovators.
2.
Full of quaint shops and prime window shopping, we'll start our tour in the heart of downtown Coronado at Rotary Park. We'll stroll the main street and also get off the beaten path to explore interesting architecture just beyond Orange Avenue. Later we'll grab a snack before we stop by a unique shop.
3.
Established in 1890, this classical revival building was completed in 1909. We'll learn about the man who funded it, the architect who built it, and if open, we'll pop in for a look inside.
4.
This beautiful gothic church has beautiful stone work and gorgeous stained glass windows.
5.
We’ll visit a local museum (subject to availability) to look at artifacts and photos that bring the stories of Coronado’s past and citizens to life.
6.
This small, circular park is surrounded by beautiful homes, and displays flags and equipment illuminating Coronado’s military past and present.
7.
Routinely voted one of the top 10 beaches in the U.S., Coronado beach offers spectacular views of of Point Loma and, on a clear day, Mexico. We’ll talk about the houses that face the beach, and if we’re lucky we’ll see some wildlife in the ocean. Then we'll stroll down to the largest building on the beach - the Hotel del Coronado.

Jennifer was the best tour guide I've had in some time. Patient, funny and intuitive. We were so lucky to be the only people on this tour. Jennifer tailored this tour to our interests and needs. Her current and historical knowledge of Colorado was extensive.
She was very easy to relate to and gave great recommendations ( especially for gelato).
Huge thanks for the tour. Look forward to doing another one soon.
Would highly recommend.

I should have taken this tour awhile ago! Knowing the history of Coronado makes it so much more interesting when visiting the island. Jennifer was a really great tour guide - very knowledgeable and personable. Hope to take another one of her tours at a different location later this summer.

The tour of Coronado was wonderful and informative, but what made it an amazing day was Jennifer, our guide and the owner of San Diego Walks. Of course she was knowledgeable, but also so personable and witty. My wife and I love walking tours to get a flavor of a place, its history, and the culture that shaped it. This tour delivered on all accounts.
