Hidden Gems Walking Tour
2500 Balboa Drive, San Diego
Cost: $60
This is a 90 minute walking tour in the heart of Balboa Park led by expert guide Kris Dawson and I Walk San Diego.
You will learn about two Expos that were held in Balboa Park in the early 1900s, and the museums that occupy the restored Spanish Colonial style buildings from that era. Did you know the military played an important role in saving these buildings? Also talk about the important trees and plants in Balboa Park, and why we can thank Kate Sessions for her early contributions to the park.
This tour is timed to conclude in Plaza de Panama at approximately 11:30am, just in time for the restaurants to open for lunch.
