What you'll do
Get in your 10,000 steps for the day while exploring the historic highlights of the city with us! Fisherman's Wharf, Lombard Street (from a distance), North Beach, Chinatown, the Financial District, Ferry Building and Union Square are all on the itinerary.
During this 5 hour tour you'll visit iconic landmarks and hear incredible stories, all while soaking in amazing views. Experience the sights, sounds and flavors of SF the way a local would: by foot and muni!
Meet your guide in Fisherman's Wharf and start your experience by taking in views of the bay, Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. Hear how San Francisco transformed from a sleepy village to a booming port city when gold fever swept the nation in 1849.
Walk some of the historic Barbary Coast while we tell you about it's colorful past. We'll make our way to Pier 39 to admire historic ships and be awestruck by the colony of sea lions that have taken over its docks.
Now into the heart of the city! Explore the nooks and crannies of North Beach (aka "Little Italy") and Chinatown with your knowledgeable host. Walk through SF's downtown district and learn about it's role in the modern era of tech. Enjoy a leisurely lunch break at the ferry building before we hop on the muni to Union Square to finish our day. By the end of this tour you'll be feelin' like a local!
COVID NOTE: Cable Car Service is Temporarily Suspended.
Other things to note
** 2 PERSON MINIMUM TO OPERATE TOUR. CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE A SOLO TRAVELER.
We will be walking the majority of the day so be prepared. The route is designed to avoid all major inclines and steep streets but there are a few. Please come prepared for all weather conditions.

My name is Dara and I'm a San Franciscan, born and raised. Growing up in this world class city has been a privilege and I've discovered all the greatest spots that I'm excited to share with you! Combining my background in tourism with my passion for this city has allowed me to curate several walking tours with the most interesting routes and stories. A far cry from the hop-on hop-off type tour, walking around with a native like myself will give you a truly authentic experience that is unparalleled . My knowledge is vast and I specialize in both the larger tourist attractions, as well as lesser known neighborhoods to really give my guests a true snapshot of what this city has to offer. Join me and come to love SF as much as I do!

Chett was an amazing tour guide, he was genuinely concerned about us, very friendly and had a lot to storytell about the city itself. Highly recommeneded but not for the faint of heart. Intense walking for 3 hours and the other half more casually. Would do it again!
