San Francisco Guide

About this app

SFGuide is built by a real San Francisco tour guide. Not crowd-sourced. Not algorithmic. Personally curated picks for restaurants, bars, things to do, neighborhoods, events, and self-guided walking tours across the city.

WHAT'S INSIDE

Restaurants worth your time. From legendary spots to neighborhood favorites the tourist sites skip.

Bars that aren't tourist traps. Dive bars, cocktail bars, tiki, wine, rooftops, and speakeasies, organized by what you're actually in the mood for.

Things to do. Museums, parks, landmarks, shopping, wellness, attractions, and venues. Every entry written by someone who's actually been.

Neighborhoods. The Mission, North Beach, the Castro, Chinatown, Haight-Ashbury, and more. What each one is actually like.

Live events. Festivals, concerts, theatre, nightlife, family events, sports, and art exhibitions, refreshed daily.

Self-guided walking tours. Free, narrated, GPS-aware. Walk Chinatown, the Mission Murals, North Beach, and more at your own pace.

Bookable tours. Boat cruises around the bay, Muir Woods day trips, food and wine experiences, all from operators I personally trust.

SAVED & ORGANIZED

Save anywhere, view anywhere. Your saved picks sync across all your devices via your Google or Apple account.

Custom tours. Build your own walking route from any combination of saved places.

Offline-ready. Your saves and the basic guide work without a signal.

WHY SFGUIDE

I've been guiding visitors and locals around San Francisco for years. Everything in this app is a place I've personally been, eaten at, drank at, or walked through. No paid placements. No sponsored picks dressed up as recommendations.

If you're visiting, this is the local friend you don't have yet. If you're a local, this is the version of "what should we do this weekend?" that doesn't end in scrolling Yelp.
