Great Experience

R1395TDalexanders, Jun 2025

I did the Fisherman's Wharf Tour. I'm a San Francisco native, but I learned so many different new and interesting things about my city that I didn't even know of. The food was great, and our tour guide, Jacob, was fantastic and kept the whole group engaged throughout the entire tour. Highly recommended!

Bay views and bites

Fisherman's Wharf is a neighborhood and popular tourist attraction in San Francisco, California, United States. It roughly encompasses the northern waterfront area of San Francisco from Ghirardelli Square or Van Ness Avenue east to Pier 35 or Kearny Street. The F Market streetcar runs through the area, the Powell / Hyde cable car used to line runs to Aquatic Park, at the edge of Fisherman's Wharf, and the Powell / Mason cable car line runs a few blocks away in the past.

Marcy is an an incredible guide - prepare to delight your tastebuds!

I joined the Stretchy Pants Food Tour through Fisherman's Wharf with friends. The tour was led by Marcy. She was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing more than just great spots to eat, but explaining the history of the area as well. As a recent transplant to the Bay Area, I was so excited to be a tourist in my own city and learn about some hidden gems at the Wharf. My favorite part of the tour was stopping by a family-owned seafood market and looking at the fresh Dungeness crab and then to a local honey retailer to sample local nectar - truly a can't miss! You should definitely bring your stretchy pants for this one - Absolute blast!

Tourist in your own city!

It's always great to be a tourist in your own city, especially with folks that really put in the time to show you things you didn't realize were there. My wife and I had such an amazing time on the Fisherman's Wharf food tour! Our tour guide, Marcy was great at showing us around the various sites and yummy food! Would certainly recommend for folks that are brand new to SF or are looking into the not so touristy tourist destinations in the City!
