Great Old Town Tour - This was a great tour for our group of six. We were able to taste lots of different things, and sampled some excellent margaritas. Along the way we got some very interesting history of not just Old Town, but the settlement of San Diego as well. Our tour guide, Benedict, was super engaging and friendly, and really went out of his way to make sure that everyone had an excellent experience!

Great Food with a little history! - My family enjoyed this tour! The food and drinks were awesome and loved getting to learn a bit about the local history. I would recommend this tour and then walking around the local shops/bars afterwards. There is a lot to see in Old Town.

Amazing tour, of old town, and great tequila, and tacos - What an amazing little adventure, I’ve been Southern California since 1964, and had no idea all this was going on in old town, San Diego. Our female tour guide, great human nature, a plethora of information, the tacos, and the tequila, everything was awesome. This is one tour you don’t wanna miss.

Food tour fun - It was very good and Ben was informative and knowledgeable. We went to three places to eat, and had a short walk around Old Town. I would have liked to walk further and maybe had more places to eat off the beaten track - each restaurant was large and on main street. Felt a little touristy, whereas other food tours tend to take you to places you might never find alone/ Overall Fun and we did enjoy
