We are back on July 15! We are proud to be the oldest non-profit walking tour group in San Francisco and are premiering a special set of historic and neighborhood tours designed expressly for locals. The new tours, called City Guides Strolls, were created to allow smaller groups to experience a City Guides tour while respecting the city’s health guidelines for safe outdoor gatherings.
The strolls combine highlights from some of City Guides’ best-loved walking tours into fascinating, leisurely 2 hour walks through some of the most popular areas of the city. They are offered Wednesday and Saturdays.
Click on the text on the image below to find individual stroll details, schedule and ticketing information.
The strolls are: The Best of Golden Gate Park, Downtown Stroll, Seacliff to the Cliff House, Shaping San Francisco’s Shoreline, and Waterfront South of Mission Bay: Emergence of a Destination.
To ensure the health of both walkers and guides, stroll attendance is by pre-registration only and will be limited to 10 people and proper face masks will be required, as will six-foot social distancing. The walks will follow all other health and safety guidelines from the San Francisco Department of Public Health.
Strolls will follow a strict no-contact policy, so rather than accepting donations at the conclusion of a walk, people will be asked to make a $15 donation online when reserving. City Guides is earmarking most of that donation to support history education in San Francisco through the Fracchia Prize that City Guides co-sponsors with the San Francisco Historical Society.
The strolls will be featured for a limited time so hurry and sign up soon. We hope to have our regular tours return soon.
