La Jolla and Coronado Island are two of the most popular seaside destinations in San Diego. If you have the time, we actually recommend seeing both of them, since they’re both absolutely gorgeous. However, because we know you have to make tough decisions when planning a vacation, here are a few differences to help you […]
Although La Jolla is pronounced “la HOYa,” like a Spanish speaker, the word “jolla” doesn’t actually exist in Spanish. This makes the origin of the neighborhood’s name a mystery, although there are a few different theories. The first people to live in the area now called La Jolla were a native tribe called the Kumeyaay. […]
La Jolla is one of the most unique and beautiful sections of San Diego and absolutely worth a visit if you’re in the area. Nicknamed “The Jewel,” this hilly seaside community is well-known for its art scene, museums, history, and stunning beaches – among the most popular in southern California. Whether you’re hoping to relax […]
La Jolla is a neighborhood within the city of San Diego, so the answer is yes and no. When southern California was still part of Mexico, La Jolla was relatively empty and featured only a few pueblo lots. After California was ratified as a US state in 1850, the area was included as part of […]
La Jolla is a very walkable part of San Diego and features plenty of hikes and beach trails for tourists who would prefer not to drive everywhere. For the most part, you can get just about anywhere in La Jolla by walking a mile or less, making it the perfect city to explore on foot. […]

If you’re in the area, we would absolutely recommend adding a Valley Forge tour to your itinerary. Located in southeastern Pennsylvania, this unassuming forest community was one of the most significant sites of the American Revolution. From December 1777 to June 1778, General George Washington’s Continental Army sheltered in Valley Forge to lick their wounds […]
You can complete a Valley Forge tour in as little as two hours, although we would recommend leaving a full day or so if you’re interested in really exploring the history of the park. Valley Forge National Park was founded to preserve the site of the Continental Army’s encampment from December 1777 to June 1778, […]
Any Valley Forge tour is going to be focused on the time George Washington and the Continental Army spent there during the American Revolution. When the American rebels arrived at Valley Forge in December 1777, they were tired, hungry, and demoralized, having just suffered a disastrous defeat at the critical Battle of Brandywine. Completely cut […]
Although any Valley Forge tour will focus on the time that General Washington and the Continental Army spent there in the winter of 1777-78, the town actually had some regional significance before the Revolution. The name “Valley Forge” comes from an iron forge built on the banks of Valley Creek in the 1740s. In the […]
