Jesse is amazing! This was our first time in San Diego so we were trying to do everything we could on our short trip. We were able to hit all the must see spots in Balboa Park and get some great advice on what to do with the rest of our day. Highly recommend!

Great experience that brings you up to the sites and gives you a brief history of each areas of the park.

Absolutely terrific tour of Balboa park. We only had a few hours and this was the best way to see the park and understand how much it offers everyone. We had a rare rainy, windy day which didn’t faze Jesse at all. He knows the history and loves the park and the city; it was a great use of our few hours.

My teenage son and I did the Balboa Park tour with Jesse and had the best time! Jesse took us to all the fun spots throughout the park, all while telling us interesting and fun facts about the museums, the shops and even the landscape! He took a ton of photos of my son and I that we wouldn’t have otherwise got! He gave us time off the scooters to wonder around the studios and the cactus/rose gardens. I highly recommend this tour. Well worth the money and the kids in the family will love the E Scooters. Jesse was also super accommodating with our schedule. We had an earlier activity that ended before we thought it would, and Jesse was able to get us on an earlier tour with no problem. His response time is super quick! Next time I’m in town, I definitely want to do the Coronado Island tour. Thanks for making this such a fun activity Jesse!

This tour was an absolute blast! Jesse was knowledgeable and really adjusted to our interests and skill level. It’s worth every penny. Go see Balboa Park in an exciting way. The park is too massive to do on foot in a short amount of time. This tour is perfect in every way.

We had a wonderful time exploring Balboa Park with Jesse from San Diego Onewheel Rentals. Jesse was extremely easy to work with for this outing and did a great job as our guide. We would highly recommend this trip!

Highly recommended. Jesse is a great guide. Great way to get a tour done with kids (ages 14 and 16) who otherwise would have had no interest.

The Balboa Park tour with Jesse was amazing. We had a family of four, youngest 11yo and the duration and coverage of the entire park was just as described and what we expected. Jesse was super helpful - trained us on the scooter for those of us less familiar, had helmets for all, and gave a great knowledgeable update for each site of interest. I would highly recommend! Thank you Jesse for a great tour!
