Go off the beaten path and discover the colorful characters, beautiful vistas, and charming architectural treasures that can be found in communities. Each San Francisco neighborhood has a distinct architecture, history, and personality that deserve in-depth exploration.

SF City Guides: Rare Neighborhood Walking Tours Month | October 2019

Explore Visitacion Valley, named by 18th-century Spaniards lost in the fog and part of the only local land grant deeded to an Anglo.

The afternoon tour concentrates on community life – including Eichler housing, a Julia Morgan church, landscaped greenways, and more – in the “Valley of the Windmills.” The walk is somewhat strenuous.

This tour is offered in May and October only.

Location:
Meet at 45 Leland Ave. near Bayshore. Public transportation: MUNI lines 9, 8X and T light rail line.
