The Best of San Francisco: Private Half-Day Walking Tour
Overview
On this private half-day tour, you will see first-hand San Francisco’s colourful mix of quaint buildings and modern architecture in a stunning ocean-facing city.
You will explore this fascinating urban landscape, set on the northern tip of a peninsula, shaped by glaciers, earthquakes and the Pacific’s rolling waves. Set on San Francisco's picturesque steep slopes, and enjoy a stunning skyline across streets crisscrossed by streetcars, yellow taxis and jogging trails.
Enjoy a historic cable car ride from one part of the city, over Nob Hill to the waterfront. At beautiful North Beach, known colloquially as Little Italy, soak up the ambience of the city’s lively historic Italian-American community.
Lastly, Fisherman’s Wharf, lined with seafood cafes, is home to basking sea lions, jugglers and mime artists and enjoys striking views across the Golden Gate Bridge, the infamous island prison on the sea, Alcatraz, and Angel Island.
