Overview

Spend a morning getting to know the real SF. We meet you near the Embarcadero, in city centre, before taking the cable car to Nob Hill, with its Gold Rush era mansions.

From there we take another cable car to San Francisco City Hall (or, on the weekend, the Cable Car Museum). After going inside this magnificent building, we take the historic tram to Castro, which is famous for its place in LGBTQ+ history. From there it's only a short walk to Mission Dolores Park, one of the nicest open spaces in San Francisco.

The Mission is really the birthplace of SF - and you'll learn about it all, as well as experiencing a lovely corner of the city. Next we take the bus to Haight-Ashbury, a name that's forever associated with the hippie generation and the Summer of Love.

We'll give you a tour of the area, with its beautiful murals, before your tour ends at the perfect time, and in the perfect place, for lunch.
