Overview

In these curated tours, staff from the California Migration Museum will take you on an innovative audio walk through a slice of migration history in San Francisco. You'll use the Museum's FREE app, (available to download at www.calmigration.org), but also get an opportunity to dive deeper into the research and behind-the-scenes process that created the tours.

In Chinatown, Look Up takes us right into theaftermath of the 1906 earthquake. Can the community save Chinatown from being permanently erased?

In 'At Home in the Castro?', we hear from a gay pioneer who watched the neighborhood transform into a queer homeland.

And in the Mission, Coffee Country tells the story of how the neighborhood sheltered refugees from El Salvador’s civil war in the 1980s – but now finds itself under siege.

Each 40 minute tours (the 3 separate tours can be combined) uses music, archive and augmented reality and pop-up installations to create an immersive, multi-sensory walk through history.

    Activity name

    Cool San Francisco wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool San Francisco over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
