Spent a very enjoyable afternoon on the Coronado Island Walking Tour with our tour guide, Jennifer. She was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. It was laid back and casual and the length and walking distance was just right. I would recommend this tour.

My husband and I were the only two on Jennifer’s tour and got a real first class tour. Jennifer is very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our time together. If I wanted another tour in the SD area I’d ask for Jennifer. Thanks for the yummy gelato also.
