Free walking tour in San Francisco

Eine absolut großartige Tour! Greg war super nett, locker und sehr unterhaltsam. Wir sind bei Regen gestartet – aber es hat sich total gelohnt, dranzubleiben: Das Wetter klarte auf und wir wurden am Aussichtspunkt mit einer fantastischen Sicht belohnt. Anfangs hatten wir etwas Sorge, dass die Tour zu viele Stufen haben oder zu anstrengend sein könnte, aber das war überhaupt kein Problem: Greg hat sehr auf das individuelle Tempo geachtet, sodass sich jeder wohlfühlen konnte. Ein echtes Highlight: Greg hat während der Tour Fotos gemacht und diese anschließend über einen Link zur Verfügung gestellt. So konnte man sich ganz auf seine spannenden Erklärungen und die Umgebung konzentrieren. Besonders aufmerksam war auch das kleine Geschenk am Ende (eine Sukkulente oder eine bereits frankierte Postkarte). Und seine Infos zu Erdbeben waren im Nachhinein für uns extrem wertvoll & beruhigend: In der folgenden Nacht ereignete sich tatsächlich ein Erdbeben (Stärke 4,6). Absolut empfehlenswert – auch bei Regen, davon bitte nicht abhalten lassen! 👍 ……………………….. An absolutely fantastic tour! Greg was super friendly, relaxed, and very entertaining. We started out in the rain – but it was totally worth sticking with it: the weather cleared up, and we were rewarded with an amazing view at the lookout point. At first, we were a bit concerned that the tour might involve too many stairs or be too strenuous, but that was absolutely no problem. Greg paid great attention to the pace of each participant, so everyone felt comfortable. A real highlight: Greg took photos during the tour and shared them afterward via a link. This allowed us to fully focus on his fascinating explanations and the surroundings. Another thoughtful touch was the small gift at the end (a succulent or a pre-stamped postcard). His information about earthquakes also turned out to be extremely valuable and reassuring – especially since a 4.6-magnitude earthquake actually occurred the following night. Highly recommended – even in the rain, don’t let that stop you! 👍

Ein rundum gelungener Stadtspaziergang! Unser Guide Britt hat die Tour sehr unterhaltsam, kurzweilig und zugleich unglaublich informativ gestaltet. Mit viel Wissen und tollen, lebendigen Geschichten führte er uns über den Union Square, durch die Maiden Lane, Chinatown und Little Italy bis hin zum Transamerica Pyramid-Gebäude im Financial District, wo die Tour endete. Besonders positiv: Britt ist nicht nur die klassischen Touristenwege gegangen, sondern hat uns auch durch das authentische Chinatown geführt. Ein absolutes Highlight und eine echte Überraschung war zudem der fantastische Ausblick vom Dach des zunächst völlig unscheinbaren Parkhauses! Am Ende hat Britt sich sogar noch Zeit genommen und nach unseren weiteren Plänen gefragt, um uns passende Empfehlungen für den restlichen Tag zu geben – ein toller Service. Insgesamt eine wirklich großartige Tour, die wir uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen können!

Greg is a superb people person & you should join this walk as much for the offbeat nature of the trip as for Greg’s entertainment value. Loved this journey around places we would never have found and enjoyed stories we would never have heard. Point to note: We almost missed this trip because Guru have a trip over the other side of town which over ran. Hope trip times can be changed for the future.

Great intro to San Francisco. We also booked the Guru “Secret Steps” walk with Greg after this event and would suggest some time rescheduling as we had to leave early.

We like to see new places via walking tours and Greg's Haight-Ashbury one was one of the best, if not the best, we've been on. Kids and adults enjoyed the itinerary, and being able to relive it afterwards with the ... er, Relive movie was a cool extra. Thank you!

Glad we did the tour. Our guide was responsive and helpful before and during the tour -- at the end of the tour our guide gave us a sheet with follow-up information and sources related to the tour and some good tips about free things to do in San Francisco. Our guide was highly competent and enthusiastic. We learned a great deal about some of the lessor known history of San Francisco and how it relates to the US and the world. Although the tour is 2.75 hours there was Not that much walking, so one should Not be scared off by the duration of the tour. This tour isn't particularly focused on things such as early European/American explorers and/or settlers, the gold rush, the effect of silver from Nevada, California becoming a U.S. State, etc. and/or top ten sights in the city, so if one is looking for a more traditional first walking tour in a city this might Not be it -- that said, we recommend the guide and this tour.

Just wonderful! Greg is the perfect host, so knowledgeable! Strongly recommend to do the Tour!

Greg es muy entretenido de escuchar, hace que el tour no se sienta pesado, ademas entrega datos freak muy chistosos e interantes en cada sector del Tour. Por otro lado, es muy visual con las explicaciones, te enseña videos relacionados a los lugares que visitaste.

We had a great tour with Britt who was very knowledgable and enthusiastic about San Francisco. We learnt a lot and would highly recommend anyone to take this tour at the beginning of their stay as there will be so much recommendations you will get from it to go back to.

Greg was friendly and knowledgable. I very much enjoyed the tour.

Britt was amazing and was full of advice.

Interesting enjoyable tour I would’ve liked a bit more walking but overall it was great

Greg....Simply the best

Great Tour Guide

We greatly enjoyed Greg's tour. He shared so much information about the stairs as well about San Francisco. We highly recommend this tour.

Britt was the best. Great tour and loved how he combined history of the city with lots of anecdotes. We have been to San Francisco before and still learned so much. Thank you.

I would never have known about this area at all without this tour. Greg really brings the history and love of San Francisco alive. Having photos and a video at the end is excellent.

Excelente tour, muy buen conocimiento, muy buen recorrido, detalles históricos tradicionales y divertidos. Super recomendable.

Greg was amazing and he gave over and above expectations. The information was brilliant and we loved every aspect especially the use of marble in the park and no more give away as this is a must for all music lovers

Britt was great! Very informative and interesting tour. Thank you!

Britt was informative and an excellent guide. Loved the car park view. Diligent and listened to his audience and responded well

Greg’s easy going and friendly nature was apparent from the start. Obviously at ease and very knowledgeable with his subject, Greg’s delivery was spot-on and kept young and old fully engaged. We have done many free tours across the globe, Greg’s was up there amongst, or even, the best. Thank you.

Great tour. Greg was very knowledgeable about the area and music scene of the 60s

Greg is an awesome guide. He is nice, funny, passionate and he loves his job. We’ve seen the San Francisco city of the 60s through his eyes. He’s showed pictures, we’ve listened to music and interviews which helped us to get more involved. He also shared a playlist related to the tour. But the most important of all… now we love Greatful Dead ☮️

She was lovely, informative and had an amazing tour. Love hearing all the historical details
