There are lots of ways to get around and see the city. You can sign up for a tour on a bus at $60 a pop, or rent a bike and find your own way. Or, for Adventurous Hiking Tours in the City, you can email me for an appointment (hoofinitSF@gmail.com), and get a personalized experience. As a local who loves this city and sharing experiences with people, I think it's the best way to get to know any town.
San Francisco Riviera
From The Ferry Building to Ocean beach, this tour can be done in segments. Bay views, museums, military and natural history, the splendour of tourist traps mixed with the rustic hideouts of Native San Franciscans, and a lot of personal history as well.
View From Corona Heights
Natural Experiences
There are a plethora of parks in San Francisco, and you can literally hopscotch across the city in them. Delores Park offers great views of the City, and Sexy City-dwellers sunbathing along the slope. Corona Heights and Bernal Heights are two rocky precipices preserving the views of the city. From Corona Heights, it’s a few blocks to Buena Vista Park, an arboreal alcove, and the Hip Haight, which carries you down to Golden Gate Park; suddenly your swept all the way to Ocean Beach. Also easily accessible is the Legendary Alamo Square (four blocks from the GG Panhandle), home to those legendary Painted Ladies, though these are by no means the only ones in the City.
Surprises
We had a great tour yesterday! I was excited to actually have a tour where our course got changed! We had planned to Stop off at an Irish pub, but One of our guests had never been to the legendary “Mel’s Diner,” so we stopped in for milkshakes. We then found the Columbarium, one of the only sites where one can be ‘interred’ in SF… and spent 2 hours there!!!! It was a real treat to visit Tommy’s Mexican Food… great food and Margaritas to fuel the rest of the afternoon… and visit the VA hospital. The views and architecture are awesome. Then, instead of going down to Ocean Beach, we went to Sutro Heights… I’m sure I saw a whale. Form there it was a real pleasure to watch the surfers and “Wild Bill” Exhibit as the sun set.
PEAK TO PEAK
From 24th Street I hike up to the Twin Peaks, and then cross over to Mt. Davidson. I estimate it to take three hours. Fantastic views of SF, the Peninsula, Bay, and Pacific Ocean with great bakeries, pubs and restaurants along the way… plus, nature and quiet along city’s spine!
The Dirty Harry Tour
From Washinton Square to Mount Davidson, we trace the steps of our favorite cop as he pursues the assassin through the movie… too bad the Seal’s stadium is Caput!
One of San Francisco’s great Breweries/taprooms, we start at Gordon Biersch on the Embarcadero, and Migrate accross the city hitting such legendary places as Anchor Steam, 21st Amendment,Toronado, and the Beach Chalet. San Franciscans really love our beer.
