What happens on the day
A killer good time is waiting for you in San Diego with this true crime walking tour! Explore the dark heart of this coastal city alongside friends and family for a unique perspective on the city.
The Gaslamp Quarter is the heart of downtown San Diego, known for its nightlife, dive bars, park spaces, and a wide range of entertainment options. It is the cultural epicenter of the city, drawing crowds year-round from all corners of the globe. However, this city has a dark past that most have not had the pleasure of exploring. This experience is your chance to uncover the unknown history of San Diego and its most famous neighborhood.
This 1-hour walking tour will take you along the side streets and main thoroughfares of the Gaslamp Quarter as you follow behind a friendly, expert guide. You'll begin by exploring the origins of downtown San Diego, learning how the Stingaree came to be. You'll visit a historic hotel where the ghost of this victim is said to still haunt the room. Will you see them? Then, it’s onto the Roaring 20s and discussions of murder, revenge, and slavery. Skip ahead ten years and you'll meet (through stories) a notorious serial killer who spread fear throughout the San Diego area. Your shadowy adventure concludes with one of the most horrific crimes to take place in downtown San Diego.
This tour includes discussions of material that may be offensive to some individuals, such as murder, assault, mutilation, and more. For this reason, this experience is recommended for adults. Along your journey, you will have ample time to capture photos of the historic locations and the San Diego skyline. Pose for a killer selfie with your friends and family!
