About this activity
A walking tour is a great way to get to know Little Italy, San Diego – one of the chicest neighborhoods in the Downtown area. With many unique boutiques, historic buildings, and luxury high-rises, this area is known today as a great area to stay and find some of the best food and drink establishments in all of San Diego. Little Italy is also a historic area that was built from a love of community and strife. Italian immigrants came to California in the mid 19th century, and used their skill at fishing to make a living. The fishing industry in San Diego was dominated by Italians, and was known as the tuna fishing capitol of the world. You’ll learn about how the Italians worked together to fish, can, market, and distribute a food that is part of day to day life in America today.

On this tour, you will visit 3 of our favorite wine bars and tasting rooms. You will meet wine fanatics who are eager to share with you small production wines, as well as Italian favorites. Learn about the different styles of wine, and taste your way though Little Italy. With a professional guide, explore the sights, sounds, smells, and flavors while you enjoy a total of 12 tastings, including cheese and panini in addition to about 18 ounces of wine, close to 4 glasses!
