Why take this tour?

Join Rob Wickens founder of LoveoftheCentralCoast as he introduces you to what is often ranked the “Happiest City in America” on this self-guided audio tour. This Essentials tour will share tidbits that even locals rarely learn or stumble across.

So before you take your picture in the grossly-unique Bubblegum Alley grab your headphones and let’s step back in time by visiting the World’s Smallest Chinatown, and envision dirt roads lined by rough saloons in this last town of the Wild West.

Please be aware that some businesses on the tour may not be open during nights or on weekends. The walking tour is intended to be enjoyable without entering historic buildings or various points-of-interest. 

Due to the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic be aware that some businesses on this tour may not be open. Please follow all social distancing and face mask advisories that may currently be in place for everyone's safety.
