Expert Guide Balboa Park History/Photo Walking Tour $49.00

From start to finish our historical and photo walking tour is a great way to enjoy the iconic Balboa Park in San Diego. Although Balboa Park’s fanciful buildings and road system were largely developed for two expositions in 1915-16 and 1935-36, the park is equally notable for its mature botanical collection and beautiful gardens. How about more than 160 varieties of roses? Moreton Bay Fig Trees? Our expert guides will help you get that perfect photo while sharing the history of the park and the people who made it possible.

Tour Description

Balboa Park is America’s largest urban cultural park and it is filled with stories and that perfect postcard picture.

The park is 1,200 acres (4.9 km²) and centrally located next to downtown San Diego. It contains unique Spanish Colonial style architecture, and is named after the Spanish explorer Vasco Nunez de Balboa. Many of the trees and gardens were planted by the famous American horticulturalist Kate Sessions. Balboa Park is one of the oldest sites in the United States dedicated to public recreational usage.

Besides open areas and natural vegetation, the park contains a variety of cultural attractions including the Spanish Village Art Center, an assortment of museums, theaters, numerous beautiful gardens, shops and restaurants as well as being the home to famous San Diego Zoo. Balboa Park was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. 

We look forward to hosting you as our VIP guests in Balboa Park. This tour includes a professional tour guide, bottled water, and some lite snacks.
