Overview

****This is a private tour for up to 4 people.

Spend the day exploring and photographing San Francisco with an adventure & travel photographer during this half day activity. We'll start by meeting at Coit Tower and taking in the views. You'll then follow us as we make our way to famous Lombard Street. Walk or drive the most crooked street in the world and document the journey along the way. From there, you'll follow us as we drive to our first Golden Gate Bridge stop where we'll see the bridge close-up. Take your own great photos and we'll get some, too. We'll then drive over to a lesser known spot from there where you can get the full span of the bridge. We'll end at our final stop down on Baker Beach where we'll capture the ocean waves, rocks and sand with the bridge in the distance. It'll be a memorable day full of adventure you'll never forget.

The afternoon tour is the same itinerary in the reverse. We will begin at Baker Beach and end at Coit Tower.

Golden Gate overlook

In my opinion, this is one of the neatest places to get those Golden Gate Bridge photos. Whether a professional photographer an amateur, or social media is your thing, this is your spot. You can get close or shoot from further out. This space offers so much for the eye, from old military bunkers to graffiti, to sea cliff views, you'll enjoy every minute you spend here.
