Ken is also a very friendly bus driver, promptly getting us to our next location while keeping us safe on the local roads and freeway.

This tour was so close to boring me to death, I was about to be the only ghost you see that night…read more We signed up for the last tour of the day in Old Town San Diego. The meeting address stated on the email sent regarding the reservation was just a general one, so we had to walk around a bit to find the tour group. After circling the park for a bit, we noticed there's no large group of people congregating anywhere, no signs, no lights, no indicators of any kind of where the starting point was. I eventually overheard the conversation of a few people talking behind us and turned back to ask about the Ghost Tour. This woman confirmed that we were in the right place. I lightheartedly commented on how I'm glad we've found them and that we were on the lookout for a sign of some sort. Clara was unnecessarily rude in her response saying "Well, yeah. This is a public park, and uh, look at what I'm wearing." Super snarky. Very catty. Totally uncalled for. It is also very important to point out that she was wearing a burgundy maxi skirt with a black blouse. Excuse my fashion senses for assuming that's perfectly normal. There's literally people in our tour group that dressed up as what most would consider to be more outlandish than what she wore and tried to pass off as a costume. I didn't want to ruin the start of our evening, so I swept this incident under the rug until my partner brought it back up in the car and stated how extremely rude our tour guide was. That interaction clearly didn't just look like that to me but to witnesses as well. Although this initial interaction was unpleasant, I was willing to give it a pass if the rest of the tour had gone well. It did not. Clara continued to be unprofessional throughout the entire evening. I can't even remember the intro because she spent a huge chunk of it complaining about the mosquitos. It's not a great way to hype up the crowd for an exciting night when you're reminding them of these literal bloodsuckers that are out to get them. If you've ever been with a tour guide for any occasion, you would know that the storytelling component is one of the biggest parts of the entire experience. Clara is either brand new to the job, incompetent, or both. She constantly mixed up the stories, told events in an ineffective chronological order, and flipped words like someone who clearly just regurgitated words from a script that they never truly digested. It was obvious that she does not understand the history and context to the extent that a tour guide should. Such a bummer because when I attempted to call the business and the voicemail picked up, whoever was on it sounded a lot more animated and fun. Where was that guy at?! But instead, we got stuck with CLARA. Aside from the most significant factor of a quality storyteller falling short, there were other parts that made the whole experience lackluster as well. For one thing, we stayed in a tiny area consisting of a handful of homes for most of the tour. To make it even worse, all of the houses are under construction, so the fence and tarp was blocking the views almost entirely. The reasons I'm not flat out giving this business a one star is because I understand that depending on who your tour guide is and how they're feeling that day, you could have a completely different experience. I also enjoyed playing with the pendulum, dowsing rod, and EMF reader. Overall, I'm willing to give a lot of grace to someone underperforming due to an off day or the fact that they're exhausted at the end of the night. But kindness and respect cost nothing, yet our guide wasn't willing to spare any. There was no warmth to her, and the passion was nonexistent during her storytelling. It was not at all an immersive experience that I was hoping for. Even with the Groupon discount, this experience was most certainly not worth it. I truly feel for the unfortunate souls who paid full price if their experience was anything like mine.

Brian, the owner of this company, went above and beyond to make sure my friends and I had a great experience. I was in town for a conference with coworkers, and he made everything seamless. Communication was easy through phone and text, and he quickly set us up with a tour guide the very same day. He even sent us a promo code to make things easier--super accommodating. The tour itself was excellent. The weather was perfect, but what really made it memorable was our guide, Vivian. She wasn't just reciting a script--she fully embodied the stories and the vibe of the city. Without spoiling too much, I'll just say she knew exactly how to tailor the tour for us. Since our group didn't have kids, she leaned into a more mature version of the stories, which we really appreciated. The route gave us a great look at the Gaslamp District, and we even had special after-hours access to a museum. One of our group members caught a photo of an orb there--it was deliciously creepy to explore the place at night (in the best way!). Normally, you'd have to pay for admission during regular hours, so this added even more value to the experience. Vivian also took us into historic bars with fascinating backstories. We got to pause for a drink while she shared ghost tales and history, and after the tour, we could return to those same bars and skip the cover charge--another great perk built into the ticket price. Overall, it was a fun, well-rounded, and memorable ghost tour that combined history, storytelling, and a little nightlife. I recommend! YouTube video was helpful. There is no lack on information to prepare you for this tour.

I saw this listing for the Star Brews Beer Fest at the Air & Space Museum on a Saturday night and I knew I had to go. Am I a big Star Wars fan? Nope. (I even liked the new movie which is a crime apparently.) Am I a big beer fan? Nope. But I saw there would be food and a Darth Lair of Ciders so I was in. Well actually first I checked if Wilson was interested and we bought tickets before they sold out. A girl has to secure a beer-loving wingman for these things. I put on my Baby Yoda t-shirt to blend in and headed to the museum eager to do some serious sampling. Pro: We had so much fun! I didn't care that the food situation sucked or that I had to stand in line for the bathroom for 15 minutes. I was hanging out with one of my favorite people ever, drinking a lot of different beers, listening to a band play (Sega Genocide who were playing a lot of fun covers), enjoying DJ playing inside the museum, and enjoying the Star War costumes. I lost count of the stalls, but I think there were at least 13 beverage stalls and each had at least 2 taps. When you walk in you're given a souvenir cup with which to sample the beer. Most beertenders filled it halfway, logical given the unknown crowd size. I appreciated it in case I didn't like the flavor. Of the beer I liked Java The Hutt from Latchkey Brewing the most. It's a crisp, dry porter, featuring Mostra Brazilian coffee and Ecuadorean cocoa nibs according to their website. I don't even know what a crispy dry porter means but it was rich and tasty. Surprisingly mead was at this beer fest thanks to Hidden Hive coming out with a Light Side Rose Wine Sangria and a Dark Side Red Wine Sangria. Both were delicious but the light side with those peachy notes was my favorite. My heart as always belongs to ciders. Ace Cider is one of my favorites and their blood orange cider was my favorite tap of the night. SoCal Cider, Julian, and Common Cider also had some booths going so clearly I was enjoying plenty of cider goodness. There was also a booth heading in where you could order Adult Blue Milk or Jello Shot Light Sabers. My heart was set on the blue milk though. For 10 bucks I got a frozen tropical cocktail. It was perfect! I also liked that they had a big table setup with coffee and water. Help yourself to hydration! Con: The food was limited to one mac & cheese stall, despite "plenty of food" being touted in all the event descriptions. I don't know if that was an intentionally misleading comment or if they had some vendors fall through. But paying 15 bucks for a bread bowl of mac and cheese is not my idea of plenty of food. Was it good mac & cheese? Couldn't tell you since I skipped that because it actually looked like mac & sadness. When I'm drinking I don't want mac & cheese and I definitely don't want bread bowls. I want wieners. Big thick wieners. Tacos also work. Wieners and tacos. Maybe wieners in tacos which is a very Not Not Tacos thing. Give them a call for next time, please. I'm sure there are plenty of vendors who would love to sell food at events like this and three could be found. Maybe Con: They stuck a cider stall back off the rear deeper in the museum. I think that was the Darth Lair of Ciders? I'll be honest that I was pretty drunk by this point and my recollection is hazy on signage. But that was the one stall back there and there were 3 other cider stalls on the main patio by the beers. You're not going to hear me crapping on cider because that's my favorite. Beer is inferior to a good apple juice and you can quote me on that. I just didn't like that a lot of people might have missed the SoCal stall and their Sex Wax dessert cider which was raspberry and chocolate. Luckily I wasn't one of them because Wilson had to use the bathroom. Props to his bladder also crying for relief after 2 1/2 hours of beer drinking. Slight sadness: I wanted to buy a couple Baby Yoda bottle openers but they sent an email to ticket holders letting everybody know they didn't get them. A girl has needs and and one of them is Baby Yoda everything. All things considered this was a great event. Plenty of booze, great music, the best setting for a space themed event, and all the fun? I'm looking forward to future Rock Star fests and the return of Star Brews already.

Rock Star came to San Diego a few years ago and I'll admit it was a rough start, but over the years…read morethey've grown to include a larger number of vendors and typically choose good venue locations. Their marketing has improved and their name has garnered a positive reputation for good reason. From the Irenic to the Waterfront and Liberty Station, Rock Star keeps things simple. Get local brewers to show off their drinks and have fun while doing it. They get entertainment and get plenty of people to rock out. Even better are the themes that range from Nightmare Before Christmas to the Wizarding World and even Star Wars, to which they'll setup decor, get actors, have the bands dress up, and of course rep the outfits themselves. Of course with a big name comes some problems, plenty of people show up so lines can get long, sometimes brewers will run out of beer if they have something that goes really fast, and a venue might put restrictions in place like the amount of people, vendors, etc. However, that's all a part of the growing process. No matter what though, when Rock Star comes to town, be on the look out for a good time.

There's a looooot of people, but it was very easy getting in and out of the venue. I didn't care much for panels, so just checked out the exhibit hall for like two hours. I actually think the outside activations around the gaslamp district are waaaay cooler and that doesn't require a badge, but it requires either early RSVP which is hard/competitive/timing is tricky or hours of waiting in line (which I did all of once). But still a cool event! I'd highly recommend coming other days. The energy is very good and it'd probably be easy to make friends here.

I also laughed when I saw there is a stand-up dryer section whee you have to pay $7 to dry off after a water ride. The whole place just came off as a dump that nickel and dimes the customer. I think the gouging on parking is a good strategy though bc there isn't a free option nearby. My suggestion is to jack up the parking bc it is guaranteed money. The electric eel was really fun. I rode it twice and I enjoyed it. The rest of the experience was garbage though and just was a contribution to a jobs program known as SeaWorld located in San Diego. Even free it was still a waste of time when you factor in parking costs. ​​​
