Soy profesora de inglés y estudios sociales de secundaria y preparatoria a la que le encanta compartir historias reales sobre San Francisco. De hecho, ¡he estado dirigiendo free tours en San Francisco desde 1998!
Great tour
The tour began with Martin Luther King Jr.'s radical vision—and from there, it only got more powerful. David is a guide with bold, thought-provoking perspectives, deeply grounded in historical knowledge. He masterfully connects the past to the present, pointing out how everyday things—brand names, billboards, buildings, and even local attitudes—are rooted in the city’s layered history. He explained the concept of the "frontier"—how waves of migrants from Europe and Asia moved westward during the Gold Rush, and how that mindset is still deeply embedded in the American psyche. He also explored the historical interactions between Russian and Spanish influences in the region, weaving a rich narrative that goes far beyond the typical tour. For anyone who wants to look beyond the surface and truly understand the heart of San Francisco, this is THE TOUR for you. Follow the radical, insightful David—you won’t see the city the same way again!
There’s a lot to learn about The Civic Centre area and ruminate on changing demographics, human settlement, land ownership and wealth.
A very thought provoking tour
