San Francisco: Food + History + Art Tour
Overview
There are no cupcakes or amuse bouches – we give you "real" food that's authentic to San Francisco and California, and tell you real history.
Food: The Mission District is renowned for having some of the best food in San Francisco. We take you on a tour of the best spots in the neighborhood, so you can have authentic SF food, such as Salvadorian pupusas, street tacos and Mexican tamales. As well as some of the most delicious chocolate you're ever tasted.
History: The neighborhood's Misión San Francisco de Asís is the birthplace of SF. We'll give you an overview of the city's history, from the dog days of the Spanish Empire, to being part of Mexico, to the Gold Rush era, through the Great Fire and up to today,
Art: The Mission District is arguably the best neighborhood for public murals. We'll visit the Balmy Alley Mural Project, as well as enjoying amazing street art like the Women's Building.
