Christmas Weekend Free Walking Tours

San Francisco City Guides offer free guided walking tours of many different neighborhoods in the city and will be offering a full slate of free tours on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and the day after.

Have friends and relatives in town with nothing to do? Gather up the folks and show off the magnificent city you love with one of the many tours happening around Christmas, and even on Christmas day.

Learn something new yourself and impress everyone at the upcoming NYE parties.
