Den private Balboa Park Tour

Se områder som Botanisk bygning eller Rose Garden, og gå forbi en overflod af museer som du lærer om parkens historie og arkitektur.

Rejseplan
Hvor kultur, videnskab og natur støder sammen, er Balboa Park hjemsted for mere end 16 museer, flere scenekunststeder, dejlige haver, stier og mange andre kreative og rekreative attraktioner. En række kulturelle institutioner blandt sine 1.200 smukke og frodigt plantede hektar, der er noget for enhver smag. Hjem for San Diego Zoo. (Noget at se en anden gang).
San Diegos eftertragtede hemmelighed for kunstelskere i Spanish Village Art Center. Beliggende mellem Zoo og NAT blev disse maleriske bygninger og farverige gårdhave oprindeligt bygget i 1935. De skildrede en charmerende gammel landsby i Spanien til den anden California Pacific International Exposition.
Den japanske venskabshave ("JFG") er et udtryk for venskab mellem San Diego og dens søsterby, Yokohama.
Med speciale i kulturantropologi udforsker Museum of Us den menneskelige oplevelse fra multikulturelle perspektiver for at udløse dialog, selvrefleksion og menneskelige forbindelser. Under dit besøg vil du udforske en række unikke, interaktive udstillinger, der dækker en bred vifte af menneskets historie og kultur.
Den botaniske bygning med Lily Pond og Lagoon i forgrunden er en af de mest fotograferede scener i Balboa Park. Lily Pond, bygget som en reflekterende pool til Panama-Californien-udstillingen i 1915, byder på årlige beplantninger af åkander og lotus. Beplantningerne inde i den botaniske bygning omfatter orkidéudstillinger, cycader og palmer, en skrabe-og-snif-have og sæsonbestemte udstillinger.
San Diego Natural History Museum (The Nat). Fra klapperslanger og kødædende biller, til dinosaurer og fossiler, til historiske arkiver og kunst, der er noget for enhver type naturnørd her hjemme hos et af de ældste biologiske forskningscentre i regionen. Besøgende vil blive imponeret over de unikke, interaktive udstillinger, der strækker sig over fem etager. Museet byder på et gigantisk teater med daglige fremvisninger samt skiftende udstillinger, der vækker naturen til live.
Inez Grant Parker Memorial Rose Garden indeholder mere end 1.600 roser, herunder hybridteer, florabundas, grandifloras, miniaturebuske og gamle roser.
Comic-Con-museet vil opmuntre til en påskønnelse af tegneserier og relateret populær kunst gennem udstillinger, programmer og begivenheder hentet fra hele Comic-Con-universet. Balboa Park, der betragtes som San Diegos kulturelle hjerte, er allerede hjemsted for adskillige museer, gallerier og teatre sammen med den berømte San Diego Zoo. Nu, med hjælp fra byen San Diego, er CCI i gang med at omdanne den føderale bygning fra 1935 til, hvad der er planlagt til at være et museum i verdensklasse om dagen og et meget unikt mødested for fans om natten.
California Tower, den skyhøje, indviklet detaljerede del af California Building, er et ikon for San Diego, og kan ses fra miles omkring. Bygningen huser San Diego Museum of Us. Det næsten 200 fod høje Tower and Dome of the California Building er dækket med indviklede udskæringer, farverige fliser og glasperler.
Dette unikke orgel indeholder mere end 5.000 piber i længden fra størrelsen af en blyant til 32 fod og er det største udendørs pibeorgel i verden. Spreckels-orgelet er anbragt i en udsmykket hvælvet struktur med meget udsmykkede gavle.
Modelleret efter Shakespeares Old Globe i London, Old Globe. Teater blev bygget i 1935 til præsentationen af forkortede versioner af Shakespeares skuespil som en del af California Pacific International Exposition.

Took a segway tour around Balboa Park with my husband and teenage children. It was brilliant! Mari was a great guide, knowledgable and very friendly. She explained how to use the segways in an easy to understand manner and we had no problems at all. The park is stunning and the segways were a great way to see it, plus keeping the kids happy! Highly recommended.

We did the 2.5 hour Segway tour of Balboa Park. It was fantastic! Mari Ridenour was a great tour guide, fun, nice, and informative. Segways are a great way to see the huge and wonderful Balboa Park. On a Segway you can see so much of the park. Highly recommend!

We have been on eight Segway tours ( Orlando, Tempe, LaJolla, Sedona [2 times], Monterey, Vail, and recently Balboa Park.) We highly recommend the Balboa Park tour with Adam as the guide. The park itself is outstanding, but Adam’s expert commentary and pleasant attitude made it all the more fun.
Judy told us so many things about the Balboa Park. Was a great experience to spent at least two hours in the park.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review. It's always wonderful to hear that you had a great experience. We look forward to hosting you on "Another" tour in San Diego, Los Angeles or Las Vegas.
Took my 13 year old son to do a Segway tour. It was a last minute booking and the owner was fabulous. He accommodated us right away and got us a great tour with Amy. She was kind and patient with us as we learned to navigate the Segway. Then we were off and the trip was awesome! She knew all about the park and it's history. She was even able to point us in the direction of some cool stuff to do the next day. Cannot wait to go back and do another tour.
Thank You so much for the great feedback! We will always try our best to make your travel experience the best! We hope to see you back on "Another" tour soon in San Diego, Los Angeles, or Las Vegas! Thank you
The guide provided good service- as much as he could include in 2 hrs total tour time. This tour needs to be longer, or not to be priced this high.
Thank you for your review and for your positive feedback about our services. The tour that you booked is a private tour and we do offer others that are semi-private, longer, and less expensive. There are so many costs involved in order for us to offer this type of tour and to accommodate 2 guests on a private tour. Our goal is always to provide the best service at the lowest price. Hopefully you do appreciate the fact that the guide was professional and we were able to accommodate your last minute request on a very busy Memorial Day holiday weekend. I really want to thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Your feedback is super important to us and we take it to heart. I would appreciate another chance to earn your business and to show you the value of our tours. Please call and ask for Kenneth next time you’re in town so we can do our best to make you a 5-star happy customer after all. Thank you again for your business and for taking the time out of your busy day to share your experience with us.
My adult daughter and I spent 5 days in San Diego. We wanted to explore lots of aspects of the city. We did a private tour of Balboa Park with Jeff. He was timely, friendly, helpful and oh, so knowledgeable! On our drive from our hotel to the park, Jeff shared all sorts of info with us. The park is AMAZING! There are so many museums, historic buildings, gardens, shopping, restaurants and just beautiful spots to observe. Jeff was really terrific in terms of getting us around the park and explaining about buildings and locations in the park, and just generally sharing info. When the tour was completed, we decided we wanted to stay in the park, so Jeff helped us figure out what we'd do and how to get around on foot. We had a fabulous day at Balboa Park thanks to Jeff and we highly recommend the tour.
