Description

Our Original San Francisco Tour takes you through all the best areas in San Francisco. Our guides will make you feel like a local as we explore not just the touristy places, but the hidden spots that even the locals don't know about!

We begin when this was a tiny village of 500 people, until we discovered gold and 500,000 people came here all at once to make this the biggest city in the western United States!

We will show you the Wild West years when our city was filled with violent criminals and gangs. We'll go into the historic parts of Chinatown to explore the history and culture of the neighborhood. We'll delight in the fascinating Little Italy neighborhood, full of sidewalk cafés and Italian culture. And we'll visit the modern financial center skyscrapers to see what the city is today, and what it is growing into.

In just a couple of hours, you'll see more than you ever thought you could in your time here!

Includes

  • Chinatown San Francisco
  • San Francisco Cable Car Museum
  • Union Square
  • Transamerica Pyramid
  • Ferry Building
  • Golden Gate Bridge

Great Tour

The guide was great and very passionate about San Fransisco and the city history and was really interesting hearing about those things I would have liked to see more central points in the city during the tour, but other then that it was great and very interesting
