Audio walks in San Francisco

San Francisco is a city of dramatic bay views, fog-swept hills, and deep immigrant history packed into a compact seven-by-seven-mile peninsula. The walks here guide you from the historic clock tower of the Ferry Building along the Embarcadero, through the redwoods of the Transamerica canyon and the surviving 1850s brick warehouses of Jackson Square, through the ornate Dragon Gate into the oldest Chinatown in North America, and up the historic cable car tracks toward the curves of Lombard Street and Fisherman's Wharf. Every stop is verified against Google Maps before narration, taking you to historic gold rush saloons, lantern-lit alleys, and historic temple buildings rather than tourist traps. Detailed audio narration lets you pocket your phone and look out over the bay as you walk. Start along the waterfront or explore the historic alleys of Chinatown.
