Sally & I toured San Diego fro Coronado to LaJolla and everything in-between. Private Tours with Julie made it all possible to see and learn so much more about the beautiful city of San Diego. Thank you Julie!!

Julie took the time and made the effort to give us a wonderful "Artventures" tour of La Jolla, Little Italy, and Chicano Park. She was well-prepared, informative, pleasant, flexible and funny - she's a fantastic tour guide. Even though our family has lived in the SD area for 20 years, almost everything we saw and learned was brand new to us, and we enjoyed the time so much. Highly recommended, we would definitely book another tour with Julie to either learn more about our local neighborhoods, or show off the area to out oft owners.

My sisters and I thoroughly enjoyed our private tour with Julie. We really felt like we saw the best of La Jolla, much of which is probably overlooked by tourists who strike out on their own. Julie ‘s knowledge and love of the area really added to the experience, and we appreciated her tips for further exploration on our own.
