Commencing at Alamo Square, our ‘Icons of SF’ tour initiates with the introduction to the Painted Ladies, stunning Victorian residences encapsulated against the backdrop of San Francisco. Our journey then leads us to the entertaining Fillmore District, followed by a bus ride to Russian Hill and the subsequent icon, Lombard Street - by passing the residence featured in the movie Mrs Doubtfire. Part of our tour includes a walk-down the ‘most winding street in the world’ - a unique way to dodge heavy traffic while capturing beautiful photos.
Our tour continues with a leisurely walk into North Beach, an area steeped in history, beauty, and intrigue in SF. Take a respite at any of the renowned cafes or bars located there. The tour concludes a brief distance away in SF’s Chinatown, the oldest in the U.S, and a model for other Chinatowns worldwide. Standing as the origin of the city, it forms a fitting end to your tour, with an array of the city’s finest eateries.
