What You Will Do
Walk along the world-famous Fisherman's Wharf as your local tour guide shares some of the fascinating history about the area and how SF became the global destination it is today. This popular walking tour offers plenty of opportunities to fill your camera roll and make memories.
We start at Aquatic Park, where you'll see stunning views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island. From here, head to Ghirardelli Square where your tour guide will share the origin story of the famous Italian chocolatier. Craving something sweet? Buy some of those delicious chocolate squares to snack on as you stroll the waterfront and part of the historic Barbary Coast Trail.
Keep snapping pictures at the Wharf's most picturesque piers like Pier 39 that's overrun with adorable sea lions and the Embarcadero Promenade that's known for its art deco streetcars. But arguably the best picture you'll get is from 150 feet above the city with your optional ticket to the SkyStar observation wheel.
