SF City Guides: Rare Neighborhood Walking Tours Month | May 2019
San Francisco City Guides offers dozens of free guided walking tours, all over the city, throughout the year.
During the months of May and October, when the San Francisco weather is particularly pleasant, City Guides adds a series of neighborhood explorations to its year round tour schedule.
Each San Francisco neighborhood has a distinct architecture, history, and personality that deserve in-depth exploration. Go off the beaten path and discover the colorful characters, beautiful vistas, and charming architectural treasures that can be found in communities like the Inner Richmond, Visitacion Valley, or the Tenderloin.
Join for a walk along the streets, sidewalks and by-ways of one of the most beautiful and fascinating cities in the world.
Peek under the covers of Folsom’s “Miracle Mile,” where gay and leather establishments reigned supreme from the 1960s to the 1980s.
Learn why the LGBT and leather communities were attracted to the South of Market neighborhood; what caused most of the queer bars and bathhouses to close; and bear witness to some of the longest-running LGBT establishments in San Francisco. Content may not be appropriate for children under 14 years of age.
Meet at Folsom and Russ, NW corner, next to Fondue Cowboy. Public Transportation: Muni/Bart: Powell or Civic Center Station; Muni 12 or 27. Tour ends at 11th and Folsom.
