I loved this tour so much! DoscoverWalks did an amazing job. I loved learning about the Barbary coast, the oldest saloon, the language of the birds, and much more! Go with them, they made our trip that much better!

This is our second time visiting San Francisco. We decided to try Discover Walks as we wanted an exclusive tour of the Little Italy area offered by Discover Walks. Molly, our tour guide, was knowledgeable, fun, relaxed and entertaining, sharing humorous stories throughout our walk. The tour was appropriately paced and well researched. Just to mention a few highlights: Underground tunnel at Hippodrome, coffee at the "Beats" favorite coffee shop, and Z. Cioccolato Candy shop! You will not be disappointed!
