Q&A

Q: What's the minimum age for kids on this tour?

A: The tour is pretty flexible with ages! There's no strict minimum, but I'd recommend this for kids 5 and up since the day is long and there’s a lot of walking. It’s really geared towards families, so younger kids can definitely enjoy it too, just keep in mind the attention span. Plus, it’s a private tour, so you can tailor breaks to suit your little ones!

Q: Is lunch included in the tour or should I plan to buy it myself?

A: You’ll need to cover your own lunch. The tour stops at Seaport Village, which has lots of great options for food, so you'll have plenty of choices. Just keep in mind that time for lunch is included in the schedule, so don’t take too long! I’d suggest checking out some local seafood joints while you're there.

Q: Can you reschedule if plans change, or is it set in stone?

A: Yes, you can reschedule, but it’s best to give at least 48 hours notice. Life happens, right? Just reach out to Best Coast Tours directly, and they'll help you find another date. Their customer service is great, so don’t hesitate to ask if you need to adjust your plans!

Considering the Private San Diego Tour as a gift—thoughts?

Hey everyone! I'm thinking about getting this Private Full Day San Diego Tour for my best friend's birthday. We’re all about exploring and love the coast! The Mount Soledad views and La Jolla Cove sound amazing. Do you think it's worth it? How's the vibe? Would it be good for a group of 8? Any tips?

Just did the San Diego tour, and it was epic!

Just got back from the Private San Diego Tour, and wow! The sea lions at La Jolla were so cute, and the history in Old Town is fascinating. Our guide knew so much! We took tons of photos at Balboa Park too. Just a heads up: wear comfy shoes, there’s walking involved. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a fun day out!
