SF Free Tour: The Incredible Stories of San Francisco
Guru:
Free SF Tour
Registered on October 25, 2017
The Free SF Tour is organized by people who fell in love with San Francisco. We would like to give a warm welcome to everyone who visits this amazing city to talk about its rich and illustrious history, it's secrets and paths less trodden! We are open and curious folks who enjoy meeting new friends from all over the world. We would like to make you feel as if a friend of yours is showing you around, but a friend with local insights and nous. Those who are familiar with the city and even locals can get surprised too – and in the past 3 years, many did! The tour takes 2-2½ hours. You'd barely notice the time as it's less walking and more fun facts and conversation so you never get tired or bored. Moreover, you will meet and chat with other open and fun people, fellow travelers, or curious locals. So whether you are in SF for just a few days or if you live there, join us on this free walking tour!

Tour description
Join the Original Free SF Tour @10 am and get ready for the most fascinating stories of San Francisco.
We’d be telling stories about places, people, historic events and current affairs; buried ships under the buildings, influential women, gold-diggers and sailors, devastating fires and earthquakes.
You get a tour guide that knows a lot about the city and walks with you as you would walk with a friend.
The tour runs through all of downtown San Francisco: Union Square, Maiden Lane, Chinatown, The Chinese Fortune Cookie Factory Financial District (there be buried ships!), Transamerica Pyramid, Embarcadero
At the end of the tour, a surprise awaits you: a comprehensive guide to everything San Francisco is: where to go, what to see, where to eat and drink, plus tips and tricks for the city.
Free SF Tour runs every day, rain or shine! See you at 10 in Union Square at the corner of Post and Powell Street (Orange Flag Free SF Tour).

This was one of the best walking tours that I have been on for the professionalism of the tour guide and also the tour itself. The tour gave you an intriguing and interesting insight into San Francisco mixed with cultural and historic elements which i personally didn’t know. I highly recommend the tour for anyone visiting the city.
