Jennifer was wonderful in providing the historical information about Balboa Park and San Diego. I've been to the park many times but wanted to get a better feel for it since it so huge! Our group was very nice too! Thanks again Jennifer and I hope to see you in the future on one of your other tours! (My daughter lives in San Diego so I visit often.)

We enjoyed the history: Ms. Sessions who did planting, the architectural details, the Navy usage. Jennifer is exceptionally knowledgeable about details. On our own, we liked the stupendous rose garden and the free tour of the sculpture garden.

We spent a very enjoyable afternoon touring Balboa Park with our wonderful and knowledgeable guide, Jennifer. Beautiful gardens and foliage, amazing architecture of historic buildings, a variety of interesting museums and exhibitions. There's something for everyone, and all within the most unique park you'll certainly find anywhere!

We have been to Balboa Park many times but Tour Guide Jennifer shared information about the park we did not know. She told us history of San Diego & Balboa Park. Jennifer knew facts about the buildings & grounds in the park. We would recommend the 2 hour tour of Balboa Park.

We had a Small Group Balboa Park Tour with Jennifer. She was very informative on the history of the Park and gave us wonderful little bits of knowledge on the plants and people associated with the park. She was on time, easy to follow and patient with slow walkers and chatty ladies. I highly recommend her.
