The Places We Will Explore

 Photo Stops Noted By *

Fisherman's Wharf

One of San Francisco's most popular destinations - from beautiful old shipyards, to Boudin's Bakery and the smell of fresh clam chowder, Fisherman's Wharf has it all.

Chinatown

Boasting the largest Chinatown in the United States, this 24-block mecca is bustling with energy, amazing food, and unique and colorful shops that give this area its charm.
​

Twin Peaks*

Twin Peaks is the spot! Spend some time overlooking the city and you’ll see why even locals keep coming back.


​

City Hall*

This beautiful Beaux-Arts monument epitomizes the high-minded American renaissance of the late 18th and early 19th century. The site of Joe Dimaggio and Marilyn Monroe's marriage in 1954.

Golden Gate Bridge

Don't just believe the hype, come and see for yourself. The Golden Gate Bridge will leave you knowing why its been declared "one of the 10 wonders of the modern world."

Fort Point*

Located just beneath the Golden Gate Bridge, Fort Point gives you a front row seat to the Bay and is a great photo stop. This former military fortification was used during WWII.

Haight Ashbury*

The origin of the hippie culture and the birth place of the "Summer of Love." From the stunning Painted Ladies to the homes of music's favorite 60's bands, this district started the counter-culture movement across the USA.

Alcatraz*

Used as a federal prison between 1933-1966, Alcatraz housed some of the most dangerous criminals of the time, including Al Capone, James "Whitey" Bulger and George "Machine Gun" Kelly.

North Beach

Voted as one of the USA's "ten great neighborhoods", North Beach is best known as the home of Little Italy. Delicious restaurants and authentic sidewalk cafes line the streets.​

Pacific Heights*

Pacific Heights is home to Billionaire's Row, featuring the estates of politicians, tech titans and other San Francisco celebrities (includes Mrs. Doubtfire house)!

"Brendan was a great tour guide and provided tons of knowledge about SF history. It was nice to get out of the tourist trap of fisherman’s wharf and see the actual city. Make sure to bring your camera since there are plenty of breath taking views. We were told the winter time was the best to get good views, since there was absolutely no fog. Overall it was a great tour that kept the parents and our 1 and 7 year old entertained for 6 hours."

"My wife and I decided to take the "Best Day in SF and Muir Woods Excursion". Brendan, our tour guide, was funny, knew his history and was just all around a great tour guide. The tour felt very balanced between history and getting out for photos up at places like Twin Peaks and the Golden Gate Bridge. My wife enjoyed our hour walk up in Muir Woods and our lunch in Sausalito. I would recommend this tour to anyone who only has a day or two in SF."

"Brendan was very friendly and funny and made the tour interesting with all of his native knowledge of the areas we visited. He provided food suggestions and other places to visit after the tour. There was quite a bit of fog the day of our tour and we had trouble seeing the Golden Gate Bridge so he altered the tour so we could have the best chance to see the bridge. If you like a small group tour this is perfect!"
