How to spend the perfect 24 hours in San Jose (Full Itinerary)

San Jose is a town that is often overlooked in Northern California but really is a great spot to spend a few days. It has a lot of fun computer history, a great food scene and of course lots of outdoor adventures. We spent the better part of a week in the city and here is an itinerary we built to help you make the most of your visit to San Jose.

Here is a video we made showing how we spent 24 hours in San Jose with our kids.

San Jose Itinerary

9:00 am – Breakfast at Voyager Coffee in San Pedro Square Market

Start your day with a delicious coffee at Voyager Craft Coffee, a local favorite in San Jose. I prefer the San Pedro Square Market location as it is a beautiful property to explore while drinking your coffee.

10:00 am – Three Different Museum Options

Option 1 – Visit the Intel Museum, where you can learn about the history of one of the world’s leading technology companies. The museum showcases Intel’s innovations and achievements over the years.

Option 2 – Visit the Tech Museum of Innovation, a must-visit for anyone interested in technology. The museum has hands-on exhibits, interactive displays, and a wide range of educational programs.

Option 3 – Visit the San Jose Museum of Art, which features a diverse collection of contemporary and modern art. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions, so check their schedule to see what’s on. The museum is tiny but it is still a nice place to visit if you like art.

11 AM – Experience the Cathedral Basilica of San Jose

Explore the Cathedral Basilica of San Jose, a stunning historic church with beautiful stained glass windows and intricate architecture.

12:00 pm – Lunch at Falafel’s Drive-In

Head to Falafel’s Drive-In for lunch. This popular spot serves up delicious falafels, shawarmas, and other Middle Eastern fare. I almost never go to San Jose without stopping by.

2:00 pm – Enter the tomb at Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum

The Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum is one of my favorite museums in Califronia since it is such a unique spot with some of the best Egyptian artifacts in the United States. There is even a full tomb that you can walk through which is a highlight for kids visiting the museum.

4:00 pm – Winchester Mystery House

Visit the Winchester Mystery House, a Victorian mansion known for its unusual architecture and paranormal activity. Take a guided tour to learn about the bizarre history of this unique attraction.

6:00 pm – Dinner at Santana Row

End your day at Santana Row, a stylish shopping and dining destination. Take a stroll down the European-style street, do some window shopping, and have dinner at one of the many restaurants in the area.

7:30 pm Explore the Sonic Runway Art Installation

Visit the Sonic Runway art installation, a mesmerizing display of lights and sound that transforms the downtown area into a magical wonderland at night.

9:00 pm – Drinks at Haberdasher

End your day with a nightcap at Haberdasher, a cozy speakeasy-style bar with expertly crafted cocktails and a laid-back vibe.

This itinerary will give you a taste of the diverse attractions and experiences that San Jose has to offer. Enjoy your day in Silicon Valley!

Music | Review: Justin Timberlake is a terrific performer with a mediocre songbook

Justin timberlake kicks off two-night concert stand in san jose..

So, he’s pretty much seen it all when it comes to audiences. Yet, he still seemed mighty impressed by the reaction he was getting from the packed house of some 12,000 fans on Monday (May 6) at the SAP Center in San Jose.

“Y’all got so much energy tonight,” said Timberlake, who also was set to perform Tuesday at the same venue. “That’s how we feel tonight in the Bay Area?”

How could we be feeling any other way? After all, one of the best pure entertainers in all of pop music was in the house and grooving like nobody’s business.

Timberlake is nothing short of a marvelous performer, boosting great dance moves, plenty of charisma and star power, an ability to connect deeply with a crowd, solid comedic timing and a knack for showing his fans a good time.

The one hole in his game remains his songbook, which — six full-length studio albums and a plethora of other musical projects into his career — remains mediocre at best. The result is that so much of the 29-song, two-hour set was pretty forgettable, musically speaking, as Timberlake chugged through one shiny but bland pop-soul number after another.

The fact that these mostly mundane numbers worked in the moment, and evoked so much excitement from the crowd, is certainly further testament to Timberlake’s prowess as a stage performer.

Taking the stage just after 9 p.m., Timberlake opened this stop on The Forget Tomorrow World Tour by leading his 11-piece backing band — dubbed the Tennessee Kids — right into “No Angels.”

It was the first of 11 songs he’d play from his latest studio effort, “Everything I Thought I Was,” which certainly didn’t help his cause when it came to trying to put together a winning setlist.

The album is shaping up to be Timberlake’s first real bomb, having just been released in March and — shockingly — already fallen out of the Billboard 200. (To help put that in perspective, consider that 2001’s “The Very Best of Daryl Hall & John Oates” currently sits at No. 87 on that same chart.)

It continues a trend that began with 2018’s “Man of the Woods,” which also was a commercial disappointment, at least by Timberlake’s once-lofty multiplatinum standards.

The upside of JT no longer being the top former boy-band star — a title firmly wrestled away by Harry Styles a few years back — is that we seem to be inching closer to a possible reunion tour with NSYNC. Timberlake already recorded some new music with his old band — including the song “Paradise” on the new album — and he’s certainly savvy enough to realize he needs to do something to stay in the spotlight in the years to come.

Right now, however, Timberlake still has enough fans at his side from his first three albums — the blockbusters “Justified” (2002), “FutureSex/LoveSounds” (2006) and “The 20/20 Experience” (2013) — to not only draw, but thrill huge crowds.

The tour’s production elements helped keep the fans entertained — of special note being a large video screen monolith that was moved, tilted and hoisted in different ways throughout the show. It resembled the big stone monolith from “2001: A Space Odyssey,” the brilliant 1968 Stanley Kubrick film that many of the younger fans in attendance probably wouldn’t be familiar with. In one moment, it seemed to pulse with cosmic energy, like what you might see in a film like “Avengers: Endgame” — and I half expected that Thanos might pop out of it at any second.

Now that would have been good entertainment!

Timberlake did a great job connecting with the crowd throughout the night. Notably, he charmed the audience when he stopped to chat with a 10-year-old girl — named Bella — near the front of the stage. He then turned and playfully scolded Bella’s mom.

“Do you know how much profanity I have in my show?” he joked.

Sixteen songs into the set, Timberlake and company partied their way through the crowd — while belting out “Play” — to a small stage set up in the back of the area. From there, he’d deliver one of the best moments of the night as he led the crowd in a lovely singalong of “Until the End of Time.”

“That is without a doubt the best I have ever heard that song,” Timberlake remarked at the song’s conclusion. “Thank you, San Jose.”

He’d then move back to the mainstage — while singing the “Trolls” film anthem “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” — and then rolled into “SexyBack,” a tune that certainly hasn’t aged well and is feeling more and more like the “I’m Too Sexy” of its day. (Actually, come to think about it, the Right Said Fred number is much better than the Timberlake hit.)

Like the best entertainers often do, Timberlake saved the best for last and closed the show in high-flying style as he boarded that same video monolith and floated out above the crowd while powering through a fine version of “Mirrors.”

1. “No Angels” 2. “LoveStoned” 3. “Like I Love You” 4. “My Love” 5. “Technicolor” 6. “Sanctified” 7. “Infinity Sex” 8. “FutureSex/LoveSound” 9. “Imagination” 10. “Drown” 11. “Cry Me a River” 12. “Let the Groove Get In” 13. “My Favorite Drug” 14. “Señorita” 15. “Summer Love” 16. “(Expletive) Up the Disco” 17 “Play” 18. “Suit & Tie” 19. “Flame” 20. “Say Something” 21. “Pusher Love Girl” 22. “Until the End of Time” 23. “Selfish” 24. “What Goes Around… Comes Around” 25. “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” 26. “Good Times” 27. “Rock Your Body” 28. “SexyBack” Encore 29. “Mirrors”
