Two must-see Districts, one urban hike. Colorful trolleys, rainbow flags, & inviting terraces catch your eye as you cruise through the vibrant Castro District. With each block, a new piece of history paints the origins of the Castro. We’ll explore the tucked-away neighborhood of Liberty Hill on our way to Dolores Park, a picturesque microcosm of San Francisco living. Our next stop is the oldest building in the City & namesake of the Mission District: Mission Dolores. Here I’ll share old Spanish-California stories before we dive into one of the most happening neighborhoods in America. Known for its Latin roots, mural-lined streets, & eccentric nightlife, the Mission is the place to be! Take note of the craft cocktail bars, taquerias, and night clubs to plan an unforgettable evening after the tour. Between the Castro & the Mission, three hours won’t seem like enough to soak in these San Francisco Districts. "Snack stops" at Hot Cookie & Mission Taquerias for local bites (for purchase).

The guide was terrific.
From describing the plants to description of the homes, to the history of the area, it was phenomenal. I highly recommend this tour.

Ryan was a wonderful tour guide. We loved his energy and he has put together a really awesome tour that'll make you leave your heart in San Francisco! We almost decided to skip the tour because we were tired but so glad we didn't.

Our group of four took a tour of the Castro area and the Mission District with Ryan C. From the moment he met us (right on time) until he walked us to his favorite cookie shop on Castro Street and said goodbye, we were impressed by his knowledge, humor, good energy, kindness, and sincerity. We are all strong walkers and enjoyed the pace, but it was clear that Ryan wanted us to be comfortable and make the tour work for us. We were impressed by his knowledge of plants and trees, architecture, local businesses, the murals on the route, and the history of the areas we were in. Mostly, we enjoyed his enthusiasm/love for San Francisco. He is an excellent guide and we were only sad that we all had to wear masks and have that “barrier” between us. But he followed the mask mandate and it didn’t diminish his energy for the job. At no time did we feel our questions were unwelcome or that the tour was somehow a chore. I have been on tours where my guide seemed exhausted by his/her guests and bored with the info they needed to share with them. Ryan was wonderful. We hope to take another tour with him in the future.
