San Francisco Castro Mission Loop Tour

Two must-see Districts, one urban hike. Colorful trolleys, rainbow flags, & inviting terraces catch your eye as you cruise through the vibrant Castro District. With each block, a new piece of history paints the origins of the Castro. We’ll explore the tucked-away neighborhood of Liberty Hill on our way to Dolores Park, a picturesque microcosm of San Francisco living. Our next stop is the oldest building in the City & namesake of the Mission District: Mission Dolores. Here I’ll share old Spanish-California stories before we dive into one of the most happening neighborhoods in America. Known for its Latin roots, mural-lined streets, & eccentric nightlife, the Mission is the place to be! Take note of the craft cocktail bars, taquerias, and night clubs to plan an unforgettable evening after the tour. Between the Castro & the Mission, three hours won’t seem like enough to soak in these San Francisco Districts. "Snack stops" at Hot Cookie & Mission Taquerias for local bites (for purchase).
