Overview

I craft one four-hour adventure each morning just for the small group and unique goings on in the City that day. The itinerary is open - we will always stop at San Francisco’s classic landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge and Twin Peaks and typically roll through neighborhoods like North Beach, Pacific Heights, Haight-Ashbury, Castro, and the Embarcadero. We will also leave big buses behind and may explore street-art alleys in the Mission, mosaic stairways in the Sunset, the laid-back vibe of the Presidio, our Beaux-Arts City Hall, famous “Painted Ladies” at Alamo Square, or go down the real crookedest street in San Francisco (not Lombard). It all depends on what's best just that day. It's a long morning, so mid way through we will stop at a local market where the group can get a quick lunch and do some local people watching. We will finish in the Fisherman's Wharf area in the early afternoon. If your afternoon plans take you elsewhere, we can find a mutually convenient end point.

Pickup points

Select a pickup point

Pickup details

I can offer pickup from hotels and home shares anywhere in the downtown area (Union Square, Fisherman's Wharf, SOMA etc.) I cannot offer pickup outside of San Francisco (at airport hotels, for example) but I can arrange for a mutually convenient pickup point in San Francisco. Expect pickup between 9am and 9:30am, ... depending on where your group and other groups are staying that day. Read more â–Ľ

Itinerary

  • North Beach (Pass By)

    We will drive through the City's historic "Little Italy", where Joe Dimaggio and Marilyn Monroe took their wedding pictures and sidewalk cafes are perfect for people watching.

  • Chinatown (Pass By)

    Drive through the oldest Chinese immigrant community and in the United States and enjoy the bustling street life and unique architecture.

  • Pacific Heights (Pass By)

    We will check out the palatial mansions and bay views of the the City's ritziest neighborhood, including a drive down Billionaire's Row.

  • Palace of Fine Arts Theatre

    Enjoy the Romanesque architecture of this monument from the 1915 Pan-American International Exposition around a serene pond.

    15 minutes

  • Golden Gate Bridge

    We will stop at one of the many excellent lookouts around the Golden Gate Bridge, usually the civil war-era citadel at Fort Point. We may also cross the bridge if the weather is worthwhile.

    30 minutes

  • Golden Gate Park (Pass By)

    We will cruise through one of the largest city parks in the country and take in the Music Concourse, Conservatory of Flowers, and more.

  • Haight-Ashbury

    Cruise through the historic home of the City's countercuture, where moderns street musicians, skaters and artists tread in the footsteps of the hippies that made the neighborhood famous in the 60s. If you're interested, we will make a quick photo stop at the Haight-Ashbury intersection.

    5 minutes

  • Twin Peaks

    We will enjoy the view from the highest auto-accessible point in town, located at the geographical heart of the City. Vista includes the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, the downtown skyline, the Pacific Ocean, Mount Diablo, Sutro Tower and much more.

    15 minutes

  • The Castro (Pass By)

    Drive down through the historic center of San Francisco's LGBT community and see the fabulous Castro Theater.

  • N/A

    We will make a brief stop where the group can buy and eat lunch. Gus's is a local, family-owned market in the sunny Mission District. They offer a sandwich counter, salad bar, hot food bar, soup, sushi, coffee and tea, beer and wine, and indoor and outdoor seating. The price of lunch is not included in the tour price, but the market has lots of options at all price levels.

    30 minutes

  • Vermont Street (Pass By)

    Vermont Street on Potrero Hill may have only seven curves, but they are packed into a shorter block than the more famous Lombard Street. This makes Vermont substantially more "crooked"

  • The Embarcadero (Pass By)

    Cruise up San Francisco's waterfront by Chase Centre, the home of the Golden State Warriors, Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants, the Bay Bridge and the Ferry Building.

  • Mission District

    Drive through the City's most colorful neighborhood past sunny Dolores park, the historic Mission Dolores, and more. If you're interested, we will stop by Clarion Alley or Balmy Alley to check out some of the neighborhood's famous street art.

San Francisco

Published on Jan, 2025

Amazing tour. Eric was very knowledgeable and entertaining I used to live in the area and Eric was able to show us some things we had never seen and answer all of my questions. Was nor your typical “canned”:bus tour.

Great tour!

Published on Jul, 2024

Great tour! Eric was engaging and share a lot of information. The tour allowed us to see several parts of San Francisco in a short amount of time.

Great SF Tour!

Published on Sep, 2023

We had a wonderful overview of San Francisco, a city which my husband and I had visited before, but which our daughters had not. We were able to customize the tour with the things we most wanted to see and Eric wove it all together in a comprehensive jaunt. Additionally, Eric has a great personality and made the trip even more fun! When we go back, we won't hesitate to ask Fogcutter Tours to take us to see the many areas that we didn't have time for in the 2023 trip.

Fantastic way to see San Francisco

Published on Sep, 2023

Eric from Fogcutter Tours was excellent, as there was only 3 of us, it was practically a private tour. Eric was very polite, friendly and knowledgeable. I had booked him based on previous reviews and he lived up to them. A great way of seeing the different districts of the city.

Spectacular views of the bay and bridge!

Published on Jun, 2023

This was our second tour in a week with Eric and it was even more special than the first. This was a private tour of the Muir Woods, Marin county and Sausilto. We loved the drive across the bridge and the scenery to and from the Muir Woods was spectacular. The highlight of the tour was the 30 min seaplane ride across the bay from a cute village surrounded by house boats. This was followed by a fresh customized picnic lunch and champagne. Eric was yet again a fantastic host and we really appreciated his company and insights on the tour. We would highly recommend this tour.
