Description

from San Francisco City Tour
Discover San Francisco, a city known for its vintage feel, innovative cuisine, gorgeous scenery, public art, diverse cultures, and something unique happening every day.

Each day is built for a small group and the unique goings-on in the city that day. The itinerary is open but the tour will always stop at San Francisco's classic landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge and Twin Peaks, and typically rolls through neighborhoods like North Beach, Pacific Heights, Haight-Ashbury, Castro, and the Embarcadero.

You'll leave the big buses behind, exploring street-art alleys in the Mission, mosaic stairways in the Sunset, the laid-back vibe of the Presidio, Beaux-Arts City Hall, and famous "Painted Ladies" at Alamo Square. Go down the real crookedest street in San Francisco (not Lombard), and more. It all depends on what's best that day.

It's a long morning, so midway through the tour you'll stop at a local market to get a quick lunch and do some local people watching. The cost of lunch is not included in your tour.

The tour will finish at Fisherman's Wharf in the early afternoon. The San Francisco City Tour can find a mutually convenient endpoint if your afternoon plans take you elsewhere.
