Self-Guided Walking Tours to Explore San Francisco, California
Welcome to San Francisco – a city that has much more to offer other for visitors than just the Golden Gate bridge. If you are visiting for the first time, our Introduction Walk will take you to some of the city's most essential sights. Make sure not to miss the Union Square Walking Tour, one of the most notable outdoor spaces in the world, functioning as a major "urban room" in the heart of downtown, which may be combined with a tour of SF Chinatown – one of the oldest and most established Chinatowns in the U.S. North Beach (the traditional neighborhood of Italian immigrants) and Fisherman's Wharf (home to the city's fishing fleet) are also on every visitor's map, and are easily walkable.
In all, we have prepared 12 self-guided walks for you to explore San Francisco, which cover everything from charming streets and neighborhoods to the most famous architectural achievements, street art and shopping areas. Not only that, but you can also create your own walk with the attractions that interest you most and even set your hotel as the walk's starting point!
