The Original La Jolla Walking Tour

Chas was fantastic. The fountain of information about the growth and history of beautiful La Jolla. We really enjoyed it.

We had a wonderful tour, was really highlight of our trip to San Diego!!! About 3 hours and 3 miles.

This tour was exceptional. Chas was absolutely amazing. His knowledge of the area is out of this world. We really enjoyed the 120-minute walk of the La Jolla neighborhoods. We learned how key players were instrumental in growing La Jolla into what it is today, a true gem. The interesting facts about the local buildings and their fascinating history made the tour so much fun, too. The walk along the coves was stunning as we saw different types of birds, sea lions, and seals. This tour is a must if you’re visiting the San Diego/La Jolla area. Thank you, Chas, for the experience. We appreciate you!

We so enjoyed this tour. Lots of walking, talking and learning about the history of this lovely community. Highly recommend!!

What a great walking tour by Chaz! He was so informed. Bring comfy shoes your lasts 2,5 hours or so. We did the afternoon tour walked all over the village got all the history saw sea lions ! We ended at 3:30 just in time for a charcuterie and drinks for happy hour at BeeSide Balcony pretty view there!

Great walking tour with Chaz. He was very knowledge of La Jolla and its history. We hit a lot of spots in town and also along the coast.

If you want a La Jolla tour that takes in more than the seals and sea lions, this is for you. Chas is a local who has done his research. What results is a tour guide with an endless font of historical knowledge about La Jolla (and a binder with pics to back it up), and a three-hour tour at a leisurely pace that is accessible to most everyone. From local Scripps history to the Torrey Pines, this tour will not disappoint. I cannot recommend Chas enough!

This walking tour with Chas is a “must do” if you are visiting La Jolla (I hear locals love it as well)! Chas is a wealth of knowledge about the history of this wonderful place. You are taken on a walk through La Jolla and feel like you are with a friend. Chas explains so much and is patient with questions and comments. I am so glad my wonderful host told me to book this tour. A visit to La Jolla is not complete without this tour. Book today - don’t hesitate!

My husband & I are both locals and we absolutely LOVED the Historic La Jolla Walking Tour. Over two hours & fifteen minutes we learned so much about our beloved town. Chas was a fantastic, charming guide & delivered an entertaining, fact filled tour. While walking through thru the village & along the stunning coastline teeming with wildlife, we heard countless poignant stories about the origin of La Jolla. This tour is perfect for both locals as well as out of towners. So inspiring. We will never forget it. Thanks Chas!

Chas was excellent! He has a deep knowledge of La Jolla’s history and was also very insightful about current trends, conservation efforts, and the local community. He’s a natural storyteller and presents the history of the region in a dynamic, engaging way that keeps you fully immersed. He does a wonderful job tailoring the experience to his audience, which made our private tour feel very personal and enjoyable.
