Tour description
San Diego takes on a different face as daylight fades. On this evening walking tour, a local storytelling guide leads you through lantern-lit alleys to uncover the legends, mysteries, and darker tales woven into the city’s history. This is San Diego at its most atmospheric and story-rich.
You’ll gather at an old plaza as dusk settles, hear ghost stories and folklore beside historic buildings, and stroll through shadowed historic lanes and hidden corners. Along the way, your guide brings to life the lore, crimes, and characters of the city’s past. Eerie and captivating, this is San Diego under the streetlights.
