Called “The Paris of the West,” San Francisco is a city that wears its charms on its sleeve. With weeping views of the Bay and the Pacific coast from its famous hills, it’s also known as America’s foodie capital and one of the world’s intellectual hubs. From its true birth during the Gold Rush, the city by the Bay has been home to renegades, social movements and artists of all stripes. Don’t miss the vibrant Mission District, the famous hippie neighborhood of Haight-Ashbury, or the shopping Mecca of Union Square.San Francisco is probably not the first place you think of when you consider taking a walking tour, but that is precisely what Urban Trek USA does. By limiting the number of hills you have to climb, the company makes their tours quite leg friendly and can show you a great number of sights along the way.There are a few tours to choose from, full day and half day. Spend a few hours learning the local transit system with Anton, listening to the background on various areas and don’t forget to ask your guide for some food recommendations before you head out.
