What you can expect

San Francisco may charm visitors with its landmarks and friendly demeanour, but there are skeletons and secrets buried under those iconic, steep streets. Once known as the “Barbary Coast,” 19th century San Francisco was a den of debauchery, greed, and murder.

Explore this Gold Rush city with a seasoned local guide, and find out the dirty truth of Manifest Destiny.

You’ll meet your guide on the outskirts of Chinatown, where tales of anti-Chinese sentiment, gang wars, and the pursuit of gold are embedded in the architecture. From there, you’ll delve into the Devil’s Acre, Sydney Town, and the only area to survive the 1906 earthquake.

Gaze up at a saloon built into a ship’s hull, where unfortunate sailors were shanghaied and forced into years of hard labour; hear the tragic love storey of Arabella Ryan and James Cora; and find out how Sam Brannon fought a notorious gang called “The Hounds.”

Along the way, you’ll unlock local tips from a seasoned San Francisco local, ending with gorgeous waterfront views at Pier 7. Are you ready to get to know the real San Francisco? Book a tour today.
