Why We Love This Unique Experience
San Diego Experience Gifts: Head out into the Hillcrest 'gayborhood' area of San Diego and discover its vibrant LGBTQ+ history with a one hour walking tour accompanied by a knowledgeable local guide.
The fully accessible tour starts at local artist Alex Julian's colorful mural celebrating San Diego pride, and moves from there to take in several important places to LGBTQ+ history in 'America's Finest City'. You'll see sights including famous gay bars, Harvey Milk Street (named after the first openly gay man to be elected to City Office), and even the Hillcrest rainbow pride flag. Along the way you'll also hear about San Diego's place as a local and national center of LGBTQ+ history and how activists from the city helped to overturn legislation in the USA and spread a message of tolerance across the nation.
Interesting, poignant, and full of laughs, this LGBTQ+ tour through San Diego's friendly and lively 'gayborhood' makes a fascinating experience gift for anyone interested in American history.
