About this experience
Join me on a journey through one of San Diego's most iconic places. Since this Island is large, we will be touring the major sites with the wind in our hair on electric scooters. No walking required ;)
The first stop will be the beautiful Tidelands Park where we will pause for some pictures. Next, we will briefly cruise to the Ferry Landing enjoying amazing views of the San Diego Skyline before heading across the Island. We will then wind through quiet streets and neighborhoods checking out houses along the way. It's then time to see Coronado Beach and the historic Hotel Del Coronado. After exploring the hotel and property on foot, we will follow the shoreline around to the beautiful Coronado Bay Bridge. We will wrap up at the beach before heading back to where we started.
Photos of your adventure are included!
If you want to see the island in a fun & unique way with a local guide, then this is the tour for you!

Meeting point
We will be meeting in the parking lot for Coronado Tidelands Park. When you arrive look for my gray Mazda CX-9 with cargo box on the hitch. I should be easy to spot near the playground. There is no address to this location so the nearest point to search for GPS/Uber/Lyft will be Coronado Skate Park
Important notes
Proof of purchase on a phone is great. No need to print your ticket.
If you would like to keep exploring after the tour there will be an option to rent the scooters at a discounted rate ($35 4 hours | $49 24 hours)
