For more than sixty years, Mother Nature has transformed the rolling hills of North San Diego County into one of the most spectacular and coordinated displays of natural color and beauty anywhere in the world. The nearly fifty acres of Giant Tecolote Ranunculus flowers that make up the Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch in Carlsbad, California, are in bloom for approximately six to eight weeks each year - from early March through early May - literally bringing the famous fields back to life. This annual burst of color, which has become part of the area’s local heritage, also is one of nature’s official ways of announcing the arrival of spring here in Southern California.

The All-Ages Ghosts of San Diego Nightly Walking Ghost Tour will deliver a historically accurate yet spooky tour of San Diego, exploring several haunted sites and the ghosts of Old Town. A few infamous stops along the route include: La Casa de Estudillo, the first San Diego Courthouse, the Robinson Rose House, the Whaley House Museum, and the Cemetery of El Campo Santo.  

Ghost City Tours are guaranteed to raise the hairs on the back of your neck as you stroll through the dark & haunted sides of San Diego's rich history.
