      Perfect way to visit a Coronado, a bit of downtown San Diego and ride a ferry to experience the cityscape from the water
      The 4 of us really enjoyed our Coronado E-bike tour with Another Side Tours. Mari did a great job balancing safety, sharing historical information with just the right amount of latitude for our choices. This tour was a highlight of our recent time together. Great directions to their facility, with parking suggestions. My e bike's battery was draining pretty fast, and when I mentioned it to Mari, she made the decision to switch with me. She realised it would affect my enjoyment watching the battery go down!

      Getting the feel of San Diego
      Great 3 hr tour with Michelle. She showed us San Diego so that we got the big picture of the city and it 's attractions. We can choose what to return to. She was a good driver, knowledgeable and very pleasant to be with. Highly recommended--just what we were looking for.

      Excellent Tour on e-bikes!
      This was our first time in San Diego and we wanted to get a taste of what the city has to offer! Amy showed us around and was complete perfection. She gave the perfect amount of detail to know the history of each district and how to distinguish them. She was also very considerate in what our goals of the tour were and tailored it just to our liking. Also our first time on e-bikes and with her coaching we were pros and super comfortable in no time. With all the knowledge we gained in the little bit of time with Amy we both agreed we definitely have to come back to explore more! Thank you so much for sharing a small nugget of your knowledge with us! Your love for the city and passion were truly admirable!

      Absolutely fabulous tour! My husband and I love exploring new places via Segway tours, and this has to be one of the best we've experienced. Our guide (Jeff) was knowledgeable and also took some great photos for us. Highly recommend!

      A fun way to see the Gaslamp area
      The Segway tour was amazing! Mari and Matt made sure we were comfortable on the Segway before we started our journey into the streets of the Gaslamp district. We visited each place as advertised. The tour went for just over 2 hours. The flexibility with this company was great as we had to reschedule our tour at the last minute and they were able to accommodate us. Thanks for a memorable tour!

      Brilliant seqway tour
      We did the 1 hour seqway tour of the Gas Lamp and Marina. Our tour guide was Preston and he was excellent. He was funny, knowledgeable and did the best Donald Trump impersonation. He was outstanding and the tour length was just the amount of time

      Unbeatable tour
      The tour was perfect in every way. We were able to visit many places in record time, with all the necessary explanations to fully enjoy the spots we visited. We felt very comfortable at all times, being able to adapt the tour to our way. A special mention for our guide, Jose Luis, he was really charming to us and made the day awesome, he was outstanding! With no doubt, it is an experience that I would recommend to everyone, there’s no better way to visit LA in one day.

      Great way to see La Jolla views and beaches
      He ebike was so much fun and easy to ride- especially uphill. Sometimes we had a bike lane and when we didn’t there was still plenty of room on the road . We visited many beaches. Take the 3:00 to end up with a sunset!

      My husband and I have made it a habit to seek out a Segway tour every time we travel. We are so glad we found the Gaslamp Segway Tour with Another Side of San Diego Tours. Our guide was Jeff and he possessed a wealth of knowledge and experience on our tour. Only one of the group signed up for this tour was a novice and Jeff took the time to make sure he was well trained and versed in everything Segway before we took off. Our 2 hour tour was packed with great information about the history and progress of the Gas Lamp district. We Segwayd (?) around downtown and along the harbor as well as Balboa park. So much information and so much fun! Highly recommend!

      Eddie was an amazing guide! We loved his casual, yet professional tour guide style! We loved the Mt. Soledad tour and the interesting water front scenery. Eddie gave a wonderful perspective from an avid surfer’s experience. I would highly recommend Eddie and this tour company!

    My group had an amazing tour of La Jolla and the opportunity to experience parts of the city that we would never have been able to see on our own, especially in three hours. The tour was professional and filled with great information about the city and we were able to take some amazing pictures at each of the stops we made along the way. The mini coach that transported us was comfortable and kept us nice and cool during our tour. I highly recommend this tour and I look forward to exploring more of the city with them again in the future.

    The tour guide Judy was exceptional, she gave us a short overview of the SD history and shared her botanical and nature knowledge. Her love to SD makes the tour very personable and she asks what particular interests her group members have and adjusts her tour accordingly.

    We had Kevin for our tour guide and he was awesome! The tour is well-paced and tailored to the group. Learned a lot of cool things about the area. I appreciated the small group vibe, and we got to ride on brand new e-bikes (for our first time too!). I highly recommend this bike tour to get a taste of what La Jolla and San Diego has to offer. We found ourselves after the tour, coming back to the spots we hit to spend some more time, so it's a really great way to see what tickles your fancy to come back and enjoy later.

    We took the 4pm La Jolla tour today. We really enjoyed our tour with our guide, Doyle! He was warm and friendly and helped us make the best of a rainy day in La Jolla/San Diego. His expertise and knowledge of the area was engaging and the sights were spectacular despite the rain. I highly recommend this company and this tour. The vehicle was well-maintained and was very clean. Doyle even had snacks and waters for us!

    I booked a tour of La Jolla as a last minute adventure and it was great! Our guide was awesome (the tall guy!), and very informative. The ride was comfortable and we were able to take a lot of pictures and enjoy the beauty of the La Jolla coastline. We even got an unofficial real estate tour! Seeing the sea lions, and the taking in the coastal views truly made for a fantastic last minute adventure. I would definitely book other tours in the future.
