Hidden Stairways of San Francisco





Description
Please note: this walk is not at all strenuous. Obviously there's some stairs but this is done at a leisurely pace and suitable for almost everyone. This breathtaking 2 mile walking tour of San Francisco's hidden stairways is the #1 rated Airbnb Experience in the Bay Area. See gorgeous mosaic tiled steps and hear the stories behind them, then take in stunning 360° views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Golden Gate Park and downtown San Francisco. You'll also discover beautiful neighborhoods and gardens that tourists rarely see...you might even go home with a succulent! I'll provide commentary, context and some history along the way. Generally SF is dry May-October. There can be fog in the summertime, mostly in the morning. Temps rarely above 70F (21C) or below 50F (10C). Rain may cancel.

This was one of the highlights of my San Francisco trip. Beautiful steps, flowers and beautiful views of San Francisco from the top. Greg was a great tour guide. I’ve since recommended this tour to others online.

We wanted to do a walk ‘off the beaten track’, this tour ticked all the boxes! Greg was so informative about the history and culture of San Francisco & truly loves his city. Totally enjoyed the tour, learning so much more about SF, including stunning sights.

We have been on many tours and Greg is one of the best tour guides ever! He is knowledgeable, so friendly and enthusiastic. The tour ended with small gifts for everyone and lots of advice on restaurants and things to see at n the city. This is a must do in Sam Francisco!

Had a wonderful time with Greg and a perfect start to my San Francisco trip. The tour is not only about beautiful stairs but also about the city’s history. You get to see amazing views, neighborhoods and flowers. I learned so many fun facts and had the best time. Thank you!

We had a wonderful time with Greg. He was so informative and made the walk very interesting. We are two ladies in our 70s but coped with the many stairs despite the heatwave! This is a ‘must do’ when visiting San Francisco.
It was a pleasure to meet you both and glad you enjoyed!
