Please arrive at least 30 minutes before closing to allow enough time to tour the house. All tours are self-guided, but docents are always available to answer questions and provide additional information. No advance reservations are necessary for groups of less than 15.
All tickets are sold at the SOHO Museum Shop, right next door to the Whaley House. The SOHO Museum Shop also carries a selection of Whaley House souvenirs, such as t-shirts, sweatshirts, shot glasses, coffee and beer mugs, and postcards, as well as books about San Diego history and the supernatural.Please note hours are seasonal
