SF City Guides: Rare Neighborhood Walking Tours Month | October 2019
San Francisco City Guides offers dozens of free guided walking tours, all over the city, throughout the year.
But things get special during the months of May and October each year, when the San Francisco weather is particularly pleasant, City Guides add a slate of rare neighborhood explorations to its year-round tour schedule. 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.
