This full-day San Francisco tour is approximately 8 hours.

If you are running late, it's best to contact the tour operator at the phone number on your e-ticket so they can reach out to your guide. This is not always possible for all tours - their guides are with other clients and are already into the tour (they ask them not to use their phones during their tour). But in some cases, a few-minute delay can be remedied. Most times, guides leave the meeting point within 5 minutes of the tour start time.

There aren't any age restrictions for this tour. True to their name, most Walks Inc. tours involve walking for at least half, if not most of the tour. Except for a few of their day trips, driving tours, or boat excursions, you can expect to walk a fair amount. Guests should be able to walk at a moderate pace without difficulty.

No. Due to San Francisco's hills as well as crowded city streets, guests with high mobility limitations or wheelchairs cannot be accommodated. Carriers in lieu of strollers are highly encouraged.

Yes! There are a lot of photo opportunities on this tour.

You may bring water, a sunshield (a hat, sunglasses, parasol, and/or sunscreen), gear to protect you from the rain (a coat, umbrella, or outer layers for the cooler months), and a photo ID for some of the stop oversights.

Wear clothing that is appropriate for the day's weather forecast and comfortable walking shoes. San Francisco is a notoriously chilly city with micro-climates. It is best to wear/bring layers, even at the height of summer.

The tours run rain or shine, and the guides are great at navigating various weather conditions to ensure you're as comfortable as possible. On very rare occasions, if the weather is particularly dramatic, some sites may close. If time allows and they have prior warning, they will contact you as soon as they find out.

A physical or digital copy of this confirmation email is not required to join your tour. Your guide (or tour coordinator) will have your name in their database, so as long as you know the name on the booking, you're set!

The tour is ideal for small groups and will have a maximum of 20 participants.
