Streets of San Francisco Guided Bike Tour

Highlights / General details

Ride Beyond the hills! From the comfort of an energy-saving Electric bike, enjoy all our great city has to offer on a full-city, 15-mile tour of San Francisco! This all- electric bike tour lets you see the city of San Francisco through the eyes of a local, without breaking a sweat. The tour ventures to North Beach, SF’s little Italy, down the waterfront to the Ferry Building. See the ballpark, and the Design district of San Francisco. A quick stop at the Food truck park provides a nice break riding out to La Mission. Here riders learn about the Hispanic history of the Mission, explore the murals of Clarion Alley, and see the cultured vintage shops on Valencia Street. This tour continues to the historically gay Castro District, where the shops embody the culture of our socially relevant movement: at the historic Harvey Milk Plaza you might get a picture with one of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence! The ride continues past the Wiggle and the layered neighborhoods bearing Victorian Architecture, then out to the Summer of Love’s Haight & Ashbury district (If you listen closely you might still hear Janice or Jerry in the wind…) Another stop on Haight Street provides refreshment before continuing down the Golden Gate Park Panhandle to Alamo Square. At the Civic Center, riders will see iconic landmarks like City Hall, the Opera-House, and the San Francisco Ballet. The tour concludes with a ride down Polk Street, whose neighborhood evolution from gay pioneers, to call girls and gigolos, to food-forward, to all of the above best encapsulates the changes of this iconic city. The tour concludes in the historic Fisherman’s Wharf district, one of the only real Fisherman’s Wharfs left in the country. Riders are free to keep the bike until closing, or disembark and find a local pub to enjoy the afternoon in the city of Love! 15 miles- ages 13 & up only.
