Top San Francisco Walking Tours

What a fantastic experience! The North Beach Italian Food Tour was the perfect combination of delicious food, local history, and culture. The tour lasted just over three hours, which we felt was the ideal length. The food stops were perfectly spaced, with great variety and just the right portion sizes to keep us satisfied throughout the entire experience without feeling overly full. Our tour guide, Brian, was absolutely fantastic! Being born and raised in the area, he brought an incredible amount of local knowledge and authenticity to the experience. He not only explained the different foods, their ingredients, and how they were prepared, but also shared fascinating stories about the neighborhood’s history and culture. It was clear that Brian knew the area inside and out, along with many of the people who make North Beach so special. Overall, this was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. Great food, great pacing, wonderful stories, and an exceptional guide. We would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Francisco!

Britt is an outstanding tour guide! He has a fun personality, lots of enthusiasm and a vast knowledge of San Francisco. We loved our walking tour and quickly realized we were learning things that we wouldn’t have discovered any other way. The cable car ride was a nice addition!

Brian was a great tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history and sights, and seemed to love sharing it with us. He had a great sense of humor, and adapted his information to what we were most interested in hearing about. We really appreciate that he did the tour for only three of us, and spent an extra half hour with us. The variety and amount of food was just right.

Fabulous! Had some difficulty working in all the activities we wanted to get in before having to be back on our cruise ship and they were very helpful arranging an itinerary that worked. Very responsive and good communication. Excursion was great and very well run! All went smoothly and great tour guide!!

It’s a long day with a lot of driving, but well worth it. The views are spectacular and iconic and taking advantage of a tour guide who knows the history and best places to stop for views made it so much easier than trying to rent a car and figure it all out myself. Our guide Lana was well-informed, easy going, and made sure everyone on the tour had what they needed for a great day.

Unique way to see San Francisco. If you are coming from a country that drives on the other side of the road you're in for a treat. Our GPS was playing up and we missed Lombard Street but they were more than happy for us to go back out for free to drive down it. We did it on a Saturday and the traffic was pretty bad. 3 hours was tight and we couldn't see the painted ladies in our allotted time.

This tour was lots of fun. What a great experience to bike over the bridge! Marcus was a great guide—patient, informative, fun. He fixed my son's flat tire on the spot no problem. Dress warmly as it gets windy and chilly even in July. Def opt for the E-bikes—it made the ride fun and very easy. It would've been a slog with regular bikes. In addition to the bridge, Marcus took us by the Palace of Fine Arts, the Presidio, Crissy Field, etc., and gave us some great history of the area. Don't pay extra to leave the bikes on the Sausalito side. It's super easy to bring them back on the ferry and you can keep the bikes until 8pm so can do whatever you like with the bikes the rest of the day. We explored Sausalito, had lunch, brought the bikes back on the ferry, then rode them to Alcatraz Landing and locked them up there while doing the Alcatraz tour, then returned them afterwards. Marcus got incredible pics for us at the bridge too! Highly recommend this experience.

Wow! What a great way to experience the Mission District. Mark was an amazing guide, full of information and recommendations. We thoroughly enjoyed this itinerary, the history and of course the food. Don’t hesitate to book this if you are looking for a great overview of history, culture and delicious food tastings!
