Our tour begins at the intersection of East Micheltorena Street and Santa Barbara Street where two city parks border three corners and an apartment complex sits on the 4th corner. Stand on the corner where two low, concrete pillars sit on either side of an asphalt walkway that takes visitors into the middle of the park. As you look at the apartment across the street, you will start the tour by turning left to walk on the sidewalk bordering the park.

Nice day in Santa Barbara
I enjoyed listening to the audio tour. It was very clear and was easy to listen to. The history was abundant. I had no clue.
However I’m from San Luis Obispo, and our town is pronounced San Loois, Not San Loowy.
A few other comments. When starting the tour, there is a public restroom in the park should be noted. It was very easy to follow the route.

I learned so much about Santa Barbara; Great Audio Tour!
I enjoyed how the tour was laid out in such an easier to follow manner, and the history on the churches, theaters and other points of reference was enlightening and I learned so much about Santa Barbara, I did not know, and that you end at the scenic and happening Stearns Wharf was great!
