Balboa Park Electric Scooter Tour with Pictures
from $75.00
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before
Overview
Join me on a journey through one of San Diego’s most iconic places. Since this park is large, we will be touring the major sites with the wind in our hair on electric scooters. No walking required 😉
The first stop will be the beautiful botanical building and lily pond where we will pause for some pictures. Next, we will briefly cruise to the entrance to the San Diego Zoo before heading to the Spanish Village Arts Center. We will then scoot to the Morton Bay Fig Tree. It’s then time to ride down the iconic El Prado passing fountains & museums along the way. After a quick stop, we will head past the International cottages on our way to the air and space museum. We will wrap up at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion before heading back to where we started.
Photos of your adventure are included!
