The San Francisco Architecture Walking Tour promises to be one of the most fascinating tours you've ever taken regardless of whether you're a visitor to San Francisco or a local resident.
The memorable two hour walking tour includes not only an introduction to some of San Francisco's most famous downtown buildings but, you will also discover hard to find rooftop gardens, unique open spaces and historical landmarks.
Highlights of the Tour include:
- See the only surviving San Francisco pre-earthquake skyscraper
- Learn about the famous Architects that built San Francisco including Julia Morgan, the female architect who designed Hearst Castle!
- See the famous "spooks on the roof" - faceless statues on a downtown building
- Discover hard to find rooftop gardens in the sky
- Explore a real redwood forest right in the middle of the downtown skyscrapers!
- See the single most important building in San Francisco from an architectural history point of view - the world's first "glass curtain" building
- Discover secret passageways between buildings!
- See the smallest remaining building on Market Street - instead of tearing it down a company built their skyscraper around it!
- Learn about the majestic murals that were hidden from public view for over 30 years!
