Bianca loves bringing people together to explore her hometown of San Diego and has been offering food and drink-centric tours for over a decade. She brought on Nicole as a business partner in 2021 to help revitalize the company for their reopening post-pandemic.
Nicole's professional experience as a project manager and former owner of a catering company, and Bianca's experience in hospitality, make them a dynamic duo for creating insightful, unique, and professionally operating experiences for not only the tourism market of San Diego, but for locals, as well.
They are both mothers of 2 daughters each and believe that a work/life balance of being professional mothers is the key to self-fulfillment and happiness. Currently, their business operates 22 food and drink tours a week and has hosted many large corporate groups on tours around San Diego. They love their city and find joy in sharing local businesses on the experiences they plan.
