What happens on the day
With its steep streets, bustling cable cars, and seaside views, San Francisco is easily one of the most well-known cities in all of America.
Your tour of this famous city will begin with a convenient pick up from your centrally located hotel or another destination within the city. Meet your fun and passionate guide who will keep you entertained with historical stories and anecdotes throughout the day. First, head to the sea and learn about Fisherman’s Wharf, Pier 39, and the Marina District. Keep your eyes on the water for a chance to see the city’s resident sea lions basking in the sun and views of Alcatraz Island.
For the main event, cruise over all 8,981 feet of the Golden Gate Bridge and take in coastal views from the Presidio, Land’s End, and the Cliff House. You’ll have plenty of time to stop and take photos as you make your way above the city to the top of Twin Peaks.
Of course, a trip through San Francisco is not complete without visiting Union Square, Chinatown, and so much more! Your 4-hour tour will conclude back at Fisherman’s Wharf where you can choose to purchase yourself a seaside lunch.
