New Specialty Guided Tour Company Takes San Diego Visitors Off the Beaten Path

Friday, 11 Apr, 2008 0

Mention San Diego and one immediately thinks of beautiful beaches, legendary golf courses, and a memorable zoo. A new specialty guided tour company, San Diego Insider Tours, is leading visitors off the beaten path to experience the city’s hidden wonders. The company specializes in providing high-end, focused, in-depth encounters.

The nation’s eighth largest city draws 31 million annual visitors. Aimed primarily at small groups, the company has debuted offering three thematic excursions:

The “Surf Culture Safari,” a dry-land experience, introduces participants to some of the best beaches in California. Visiting San Diego’s four diverse beach communities, the tour-goers learn not only about the thriving surf culture, but also many other aspects of the beach scene.

The “Photographic Treasure Hunt” was created on the premise that you need more than photographic technique to take great nature photographs. A skillful guide can lead you to the best subjects. After an overview of San Diego’s pulsing urban core, tour-goers explore Balboa Park on foot, discovering idyllic locales such as the hidden butterfly garden once used as a nudist camp during the 1930s.

The “Beads, Baubles, and Jewelry Junket” takes participants to the largest retailer of beads and jewelry in the United States, a 45,000-square-foot “Ali Baba’s cavern” filled with millions of beads and pendants from around the world. Participants get a 90-minute basic beading lesson, all materials necessary for the class, and a DVD recap of the instructional material. After the class, there is time to shop for bargains.

Private tours can also be arranged, and gourmet food is a part of every Insider experience.
