See more
Explore San Diego like never before with the 2Hr GPS Self Guided Scooter Tour: Downtown & Old Town. Starting in the historic Little Italy, you'll see how this vibrant neighborhood transformed from a hub for Italian immigrants into a lively center for art and business. As you glide through the city, you'll pass by ships in the bay that once explored the New World and patrol the waters during wartime.
Next, cruise through the Gaslamp Quarter, which was once San Diego’s red-light district. Today, it’s a bustling social scene filled with restaurants, bars, and entertainment. Your journey continues into Mission Hills, where you'll see charming houses and businesses dating back over 50 years, some even older. Along the way, you'll pass historic sites like Fort Stockton and Presidio Park, home to the old Spanish Mission.
Finally, you’ll arrive at Old Town San Diego, a glimpse into the city’s Old West days, with Spanish and American communities shaping its history. This private scooter tour offers a fun, flexible way to discover San Diego’s rich past and vibrant present, all at your own pace.
