Haunted History Tour: San Diego CA! - Niche Tour 2016

Haunted History Tour: San Diego California! 👻


Tour the downtown district of waterfront San Diego... In the dark ...with ghosts. Not sold yet? San Diego is often called “The Most Haunted City in the West Coast”, with it's haunted hotels, restaurants, homes, and parks, this is the perfect place for a “Haunted History tour”! Explore the Gaslamp quarter, the Whaley house, Old Town Julian and so much more!

Haunted History tours often appeal to those in the historic and cultural Niche market, which is often classified as traveling to learn  of a place of historical significance, but an argument could also be made to classify this tour as Adventure tourism, because their is an element of danger and fear present. A tour like this would appeal to young adults and thrill seekers, even families. This tour covers the entire city of San Diego, from the coastline to the desert inner city. It puts a fun twist on the historic city sites. I've always loved ghost stories so this is a tour that I would love this tour! These types of tours not only discuss the culture of the past the the historic significance but also the current culture of the city and how people are embracing the past!
