Overview

Experience the cinematic side to San Francisco on an interactive, family-friendly tour that includes clips from more than 55 movies and TV shows filmed in the picturesque city. Revisit scenes from 'Mrs. Doubtfire,' 'Dirty Harry,' 'Vertigo,' 'Bullitt,' 'The Princess Diaries,' 'Full House,' and 'Star Trek IV,' among others. Learn from an actor-turned-guide who shares knowledge of San Francisco's filming history.

Itinerary

  • Union Square (Pass By)

    This one-block plaza and surrounding area is one of the largest collections of department stores, upscale boutiques, gift shops, art galleries, and beauty salons in the United States, making Union Square a major tourist destination and a vital, cosmopolitan gathering place in downtown San Francisco.

  • Palace of Fine Arts Theatre (Pass By)

    The Palace of Fine Arts, built in the Beaux-Arts architectural style for the 1915 World's Fair, has been seen in films such as Vertigo (1958), Time After Time (1979), The Room (2003), and Twisted (2004). It also served as the backdrop for set pieces in So I Married An Axe Murderer (1993) and The Rock (1996).

  • Golden Gate Bridge

    We will visit Fort Point at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge. We believe this location offers the most beautiful and comprehensive view of this majestic bridge. You'll also be able to walk in the footsteps of actors such as Jimmy Stewart, Kim Novak, Mel Brooks, Humphrey Bogart, Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner.

    15 minutes

  • Lombard Street (Pass By)

    Lombard Street is known for the one-way block on Russian Hill between Hyde and Leavenworth Streets, where eight sharp turns are said to make it the most crooked street in the world. We'll tell you on the tour why it's not even the crookedest street in San Francisco!

  • North Beach (Pass By)

    North Beach, a buzzy neighborhood steeped in Italian heritage, draws locals and tourists to its checked-tablecloth trattorias, coffee shops and retro-flavored bars. The spirit of the Beat Generation can be felt at the storied City Lights bookstore and the memorabilia-filled Vesuvio Cafe bar. In Telegraph Hill the Filbert Steps offer a scenic hike to the iconic Coit Tower, with WPA-era murals and panoramic views

  • Nob Hill (Pass By)

    Once home to the mansions of the Big Four railroad barons, Nob Hill retains a sense of wealth and privilege. Some of the city’s swankiest hotels are here, as are the ornate, Gothic-style Grace Cathedral and charming Huntington Park. Steep streets are dotted with restaurants and nightspots like the Top of the Mark lounge, with its 360-degree views. The Cable Car Museum exhibits antique cars alongside live machinery

  • Transamerica Pyramid (Pass By)

    The Transamerica Pyramid at 600 Montgomery Street between Clay and Washington Streets in the Financial District of San Francisco, California, United States, is a 48-story futurist building and the second-tallest skyscraper in the San Francisco skyline.

  • San Francisco Movie Tours

    This is our meeting point right along the Bay's edge. Just a flat 5-10 minute walk from Fisherman's Wharf's famous Pier 39

    5 minutes

  • Alamo Square

    Visit the 2nd most photographed location in San Francisco while checking out the park where the Tanner family had its picnic in Full House. The view of the Victorian-era Painted Ladies juxtaposed against the beautiful San Francisco skyline is not to be missed

    10 minutes

Great city tour in SFO

Published on Jan, 2025

Great city tour connected with movie clips, covered over 10 locations including Lucas Movie Studio in Presidio, meeting Yoda fountain, R2-D2 & etc. We got best photo spot of the Golden Gate Bridge as well. A very enjoyable tour.

Fun tour!!!

Published on Jan, 2025

Fun tour - highly recommended! It is not only a movie tour, I would call it a side-seeing one as our guide showed us some beautiful places, including the Golden Gate Bridge (and helped with pictures). The bus is comfy, with the large screen showing the key movie scenes along the way - a lot of fun!! Highly recommended! Best, Professor.

Very enjoyable tour

Really enjoyed the tour and Brian was a friendly and knowledgeable host. The content and clips were fun and being taken close to the Golden Gate Bridge was a plus.

A very relaxed and fun...

A very relaxed and fun experience, we were made to feel extremely welcome and Brian was very knowledgeable.

Brian knows his movies!

Published on Jan, 2025

Brian knows his movies trivia, we had a great time. Highly recommend. Go during the winter months, great weather. And weekdays smaller crowds.
