Additional Information
Our River Market Urban Hike is unique for a few different reasons. Our River Market Urban Hike guides have researched and share the hard to find history and untold stories about the area. We also share about the murals and the artists who painted them, while directing the group to the artists Instagram pages or webpages. We create an immersive atmosphere where the hiker experiences what they see, but at the same time give each hiker the opportunity to ask questions.
