Tours and Transportation

Frontier Airlines begins offering direct flights from Las Vegas to San Diego on April 30. These low fare flights, starting at $25, are available five days a week, excluding Wednesdays and Saturdays. 

In January 2019, the Convivio Society began offering Bella Serata (beautiful evening) historic, walking tours of San Diego’s Little Italy. These bi-monthly immersive 90-minute cultural tours start at the Piazza della Famiglia and include Piazza Basilone fountain/war memorial, an Italian church built in 1925, historic homes from the 19th century, hidden neighborhood landmarks of the Italian quarter, artifacts from the days when the Genovese and Sicilian fishermen dominated the seas in San Diego, the house of the Black Hand―the shadowy gang that reigned during Prohibition, and a visit to an Italian grocery store built in the 1920s. Upon returning to Amici House―a heritage center in the heart of Little Italy―adventurers will dine on a Sicilian aperitivo.
