Bought a cute little Winnie the Pooh music box during my high school trip to San Diego back in May of 2025. It came from one of the many gift shops I had the chance to visit in Old Town. But I am 99% sure it was Old Town Market. Anyways, I LOVE this thing so much! Getting this souvenir was one of the highlights of my trip! It was so special that it even found a way to help me connect with Matt, one of my friends from school during the trip. Thank you guys for selling me the best San Diego souvenir I could ask for
My family and I loved the Old Town Trolley Tour! The two-hour ride was fun, informative, and a great way to explore San Diego. Our guide, Jack, was amazing - funny, knowledgeable, and made the tour unforgettable. After the trolley, we explored Old Town, which has so many cute spots for souvenirs. And don’t forget to grab a coffee and churro next to the trolley station - so delicious!
Took a flight here just to visit for Day of the Dead and it did not disappoint!! My sister and I really enjoyed it had a blast. The energy was amazing and the people were nice. The food has me missing them all ready and drinks.. all I needed was one and my head was buzzing. This was definitely an experience I'd go for again.
Maybe it's tourism hype but I liked it a lot very nice I went during nighttime, people are very friendly! And my favorite thing it's not packed
This was a very very lively place. On maps it shows it closes at 5 but it’s just for museums. The market, restaurants and stores are open. It gives the feel of as if you are in Mexico and can smell tacos in the air. There was also live performances. Just love the vibe.
