San Francisco Small Group Customizable Tour
Overview
I craft one four-hour adventure each morning just for the small group and unique goings on in the City that day. The itinerary is open - we will always stop at San Francisco’s classic landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge and Twin Peaks and typically roll through neighborhoods like North Beach, Pacific Heights, Haight-Ashbury, Castro, and the Embarcadero.
We will also leave big buses behind and may explore street-art alleys in the Mission, mosaic stairways in the Sunset, the laid-back vibe of the Presidio, our Beaux-Arts City Hall, famous “Painted Ladies” at Alamo Square, or go down the real crookedest street in San Francisco (not Lombard). It all depends on what's best just that day.
It's a long morning, so mid way through we will stop at a local market where the group can get a quick lunch and do some local people watching.
We will finish in the Fisherman's Wharf area in the early afternoon. If your afternoon plans take you elsewhere, we can find a mutually convenient end point.

Meeting and Pickup
Expect pickup between 9:30am and 10:15, depending on where your group and other groups are staying that day.I offer pickup from hotels and home shares anywhere in the downtown area (Union Square, Fisherman's Wharf, SOMA etc.) I cannot offer pickup outside of downtown or outside of San Francisco (at airport hotels, for example).If you will be driving into SF for your tour it's easiest to meet at the RIU Plaza Fisherman's Wharf. There are many flat rate lots in the area where you can leave your car while you are on tour.If you will be taking transit, plan to meet at the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero. It's directly above the Drumm Street exit from the BART/Muni Embarcadero Station.
