Ghosts of San Diego Family Friendly Walking Tour

- Explore San Diego's haunted past
- Bring the kids for a fun, spooky evening
Old Town San Diego is beautiful by day—but when the sun sets, its shadows come alive with the ghosts of the past. On the Ghosts of San Diego Tour, you’ll take a 90-minute guided walk through one of the most paranormally active neighborhoods in California, where every adobe wall and dusty courtyard holds a story.
Your journey begins at Temple Beth Israel, haunted by a rabbi and a spectral lady in white. From there, you’ll explore haunted theaters, tragic houses, spiritual strongholds, and some of the oldest cemeteries in the West. You’ll hear the eerie tale of a music-loving ghost who punishes thieves, uncover the story of a woman in white who floats through El Fandango Restaurant, and learn why every room in the Cosmopolitan Hotel may be occupied by more than just the living.
With stops at places like the Whaley House, El Campo Santo Cemetery, the Old Adobe Chapel, and the Merchant House of the infamous Sheriff Corwin, this tour combines chilling true stories with a deep look at San Diego’s layered history. Expect mysterious music, unexplainable cold spots, haunted artifacts, and a few tales that might follow you home.
Whether you're here for the ghosts or the history, this family-friendly experience is the perfect way to discover a different side of San Diego—one where the dead still have stories to tell.
