We decided to book this tour based on other traveler's exemplary reviews and Tim did not disappoint! My husband and I took the Old Town Trolley Tour in the city of San Diego and Tim's tour of the Northern area. Tim provided great insight and unique information to our comfortably sized group. Old Town's circus atmosphere could not compare to... More

His informative, engaging, and entertaining manner of sharing his knowledge and love of the area laid a great foundation for the other attractions we visited during the remainder of our time in San Diego. Tim included information, which he often enhanced with personal anecdotes and... More

From Orlando, FL our April 2013 San Diego vacation began with an 8AM non-stop flight arriving at 10:25. After coordinating with Tim and working around a delayed rental car pickup, we made it to the starting point just in time to get a bite at the train depot and catch the tour at Noon. Even with a larger than usual... More

This was our first visit to San Diego and it got off to a great start with Tour Guide Tim. He is very knowledgeable and entertaining. Our tour was small, only nine people, and it allowed for flexibility depending upon the desires of the clients. Some of our group elected to tour the aquarium while the rest of us continued... More

The tour is 5 hours long, is very well paced and is... More

If you want a great overview of SD, go on Tim's tour. He is very knowledgeable and goes to great lengths to make sure everyone enjoys the tour. The little insider secrets he shares are worth the trip.

Very relaxing and enjoyable tour of La Jolla & Torrey Pines areas. Tim was full of great historical information and had some pretty cool stories to tell of area personalities. Very thoughtful...always asking if we had any questions. I would highly recommend to anyone.

No segways, no sailboats, no bikes, no cooking lessons- just a boy living his dream. Tim treats you like he's showing his own family around LaJolla. Personable and professional, this is the best guided tour I have ever been on- that includes trip advisors top rated guides in places like Venice, Istanbul, and Barcelona. Do it and be better for...
