North Beach is one of the oldest areas of San Francisco and has seen many changes over its long history. What began as a beachfront community and maritime port soon attracted immigrants from many countries, who over time, transformed the area into today’s vibrant mercantile and tourist area. Sailors, bankers, poets, performers, and others all made their imprint here, and their stories will be part of this walk through the neighborhood. Along the way we will sample some of the neighborhood’s delicacies (included). And for those who wish to stay after the tour, you can enjoy a pizza on your own at Tony’s Pizza Napoletana, where the tour ends.

Tips to the guide are not required but are welcomed.

Tours start at 608 Commercial Street (SF Historical Society Museum) at 10AM and end at Tony’s Pizza Napoletana around 11:30AM.

Tours led by Stephen Johnson, a board member of the San Francisco Tour Guide Guild.
