The village of Glen Park is nestled among the slopes of the San Miguel Hills near the heart of San Francisco, just south of Twin Peaks. It is the gateway to a hidden gem of 70 acres of open space known as Glen Canyon, of which 60 acres is officially designated as a Significant Natural Resource Area. Much of the history of Glen Park and Glen Canyon is closely intertwined, from early open-range cattle grazing and "milch" ranches, to an explosive direct link with today's prestigious Nobel Prizes, to a radical sales gimmick for selling home lots that included just about everything from lions and bears to trick shooters and high-flying aeronauts! In addition to the area's remarkable cultural history, we'll also discover some of the highlights of the canyon's natural history as we trek through. The tour is ready whenever you are and the audio plays automatically at exactly the right time and place using your smartphone's GPS and the VoiceMap mobile app, which also works offline.

San Francisco's Glen Park and Glen Canyon: A Self-Guided Tour

1 hour 30 minutesFree Cancellation

When Robert Louis Stevenson visited San Francisco in 1879, he declared, "Nob Hill, the Hill of Palaces, must certainly be counted the best part of San Francisco. It is here that millionaires gathered together, vying with each other in display". My Nob Hill tour is a 2-hour walking photo-shoot tour that starts with a Cable Car ride and a visit to a French Gothic Cathedral and ends at the Top of the Mark on the 19th floor of the InterContinental Mark Hopkins Hotel for photographs and beverages at sunset. The eclectic history of Nob Hill includes: * The Gold Rush (not the San Francisco 49r cheerleaders) * The Silver Bonanza (not including Ben Cartwright, Ben, Hoss or Little Joe) * The Transcontinental Railroad * The 1906 Earthquake and Fire, and * A spectacular French-Gothic design Episcopal Cathedral that took nearly 40 years to build. The opportunities for photography are endless on Nob Hill!

What are people saying about San Francisco

Vantigo - The Original San Francisco VW Bus Tour

Marcia_S, Oct 2026

Josh is an awesome tour guide!

Josh was a fantastic tour guide. He knew fun little facts, added great music for each sight he showed us, and was super kind and lots of fun. We highly recommend this tour to anyone who has never been to SanFrancisco before. It’s a short 3 hours and once done you can decide where to revisit. Very happy we signed up and want to say a big thanks to Josh again.

Skip The Bus: San Francisco By Luxury Van Tour

Great tour, FABULOUS tour guide!

Relaxed, respectful personality of Guide coupled with his tremendous knowledge of San Francisco history, culture and activities made for a great way to spend the day. The Golden Gate Park in San Francisco was new to us. It was like dropping off the road into a magical space. We were so impressed not only with seeing and learning about the different aspects/areas/activities/concerts of this HUGE park but with the Guide's knowledge of the political and local work to keep it in tack. We will definitely be going back as soon as we can. We had ample opportunities for photo taking at various monuments/popular locations and for strolls around several venues where outside activities were in process. The guide also gave excellent suggestions on where to spend additional days and/or dine. I will warn you that while tasty, the "snacks" will not substitute for lunch 😋 I hope you enjoy the tour. We did!

San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge Bike or Electric Bike Rental

The perfect way to experience the GG bridge, Sausalito and Pier39

We had the best ride from start to finish with Blazing Saddles E-Bikes. From being greeted, trained, and set off on the right path at the shop, to the midway point guys in Sausalito, to the sea lions at Pier39, my family thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Blazing Saddles E-bike rentals. The bikes were in great shape, did the job getting up hills, and were comfortable for our soft bottoms. We had a blast with this booking and would 100% recommend to anyone visiting the city.

Fabulous tour

Amazing tour of San Francisco. Dirceu or driver and guide was helpful, professional and friendly. He went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. I think we saw just about everything. Only sorry we couldn’t stay longer. Thank you very much. Can highly recommend.

Golden Gate Bridge Guided E-Bike Tour to Sausalito

Lore_H, Sept 2026

E-Bike Golden Gate

This was AWESOME! I highly recommend this tour. The views were amazing and the history was so interesting. The bikes were easy to use and I always felt safe. There were several brief stops for photos and a bathroom stop. The ride over the GG bridge was an experience of a lifetime. I recommend taking the bikes back on the ferry to Pier 39. I highly recommend this tour.

Yosemite National Park 2-Day Tour from San Francisco with Lodging

Where Nature Speaks Loudest: A Journey Into Yosemite’s Timeless Beauty

This was, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful and memorable tours I have ever taken. Yosemite National Park is absolutely breathtaking, and experiencing its spectacular landscapes, towering cliffs, waterfalls, and incredible natural beauty made this a day I will never forget. A huge part of what made the experience so special was our guide, Sara. She was simply outstanding — incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, energetic, and always available to help. Throughout the entire day, Sara went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable, engaged, and enjoying the experience. Her enthusiasm and dedication truly made a difference and turned an already amazing tour into something genuinely memorable. I also have to mention the excellent music selection during the long hours on the road. It might sound like a small detail, but it made such a difference! The music created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, helping the whole group unwind and making the journey itself part of the experience. The combination of Yosemite’s extraordinary scenery, a well-organised tour, the great atmosphere within the group, and especially Sara’s exceptional guidance made this an unforgettable day.

Ghost Hunt in SF Chinatown with a Professional Investigator

Tomas_S, Aug 2026

Ready for Ghost Hunt.

Had a wonderful time with Zave last night. He was very knowledgeable and energetic. I got to use the dowsing rods and it was really cool and fun. Would definitely recommend taking this tour not only for some possible ghost encounter but for the history you will learn. I would love to do it again next time I return to San Francisco.

San Francisco Bridge-to-Bridge Cruise

Escape from Alcatraz

The self-guided audio tour is the standout feature, narrated by former inmates and guards, which visitors describe as "immersive," "chilling," and "powerful." This audio guide allows for a flexible pace and is widely credited with bringing the prison's history to life. The ferry ride from Pier 33 offers scenic views of the Golden Gate Bridge and city skyline, enhancing the overall experience.

"Best private Wine Tour of Napa or Sonoma for up to 8 People"

Jacob_G, Nov 2025

Nappa Valley Winery Visit

We had an amazing experience, which we attribute primarily to our driver and guide, Anna. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and even managed to secure us a spot at a wine tasting for which we did not have a prior booking by skillfully coordinating with the hostess. We highly recommend this company and, specifically, requesting Anna as your guide

Sonoma Wine Tour with 2 Tastings Included Small-Group Half Day

Pam_A, Oct 2025

Fun afternoon in Sonoma!

Our driver, Jerry, made the trip interesting with the history & local knowledge. He was very kind & a very fun afternoon. Peter Cellars winery had the best wines & a very quaint atmosphere. The best was delicious wine with his 3 adorable & sweet dogs that weee happy to greet us. We also visited Roche Winery with breath taking views of the vineyards, beautiful patio, & surrounding mountains. Highly recommended this trip & would do it again.
