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!
This will be a free tour through one of the most special neighborhoods in San Francisco: Chinatown. The guided tour will take us through some of the corners with less tourist influx. We will walk through St. Mary’s Park and we will enter mysterious alleys, where we will get to know some urban legends in the area. Do you dare to know the stories of local villains? As we walk, we will tell you the most fascinating stories that have taken place in Chinatown, being the Gold Rush one of them. In addition, we will stop in front of the fortune cookie factory, one of the most typical Chinese sweets. Did you know that this exquisite snack was baked for the first time in San Francisco? We will finish this free tour at 10:00 pm at the Li Po Cocktail Lounge, the favorite bar of the famous chef Anthony Bourdain, where we will take a shot of Chinese Mai Tai. Cheers!

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
