Chasing La Jolla History with Chas! Chas is amazing and engaging! I have been to La Jolla many times and never knew about its rich history. We learned how this community was shaped by women of the past who laid a foundation that sustains it today. The story of the Scripps Family and their legacy seeding the growth of many philanthropic projects. All my senses were engaged as Chas told the story, walked us along the path of history to see and touch the buildings, and smell and taste the sea. He shared pictures of the buildings as originally built in contrast to today. The current planning for the seal and bird populations was also shared -so interesting. If you want to spend an insightful afternoon book this trip!

Great Stories, Gorgeous Views, and a Guide Who Knows Everyone We had such a great time on our walking tour of La Jolla with Chaz! He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many fun and interesting stories about the area. You could tell he’s a local legend — it felt like everyone we passed knew him! The tour was the perfect mix of history, humor, and beautiful sights. I highly recommend taking this tour if you want to experience La Jolla through the eyes of someone who truly loves and knows the community.

Hoof in’ LaJolla. Wonderful, comprehensive tour of LaJolla. Our guide, Chas, is so enthusiastic about his “village”. What an ambassador!!

Day in the Jolla Beautiful view, magical sunset. I was there all day and had a great time. I saw the seals, went down to the cave and walked along the coast trail.

Outstanding guide I found Chas to be what I expect from a perfect guide: Extremely knowledgeable, interesting, friendly with a good sense of humor. Bravo!

Great Tour and Guide The tour was so amazing and Chas was the best tour guide ever! Chas shared the scoop on the local history and we experienced his passion and love for the village. Saw many sites, sea lions, seals, and much more. Such a beautiful area. Highly recommend the tour and Chas!!

Wonderful tour Chas is very knowledgeable and provides a fantastic overview of the history of the area. Highly recommended! Quite a bit if walking including stairs and hills but worth every step.

Husband enjoyed it. The tour guide was very informative. He checked on us from time to time to see how we were doing. The experience was not my cup of tea. However, my husband really enjoyed it!
