Cruisin’ the Castro are celebrating 20 years of offering travellers and unique glimpse into the vibrant gay Castro area of San Francisco. Owner and guide Kathy Amendola has just added some new tours to the regular daily tour five days a week 10-12. I can highly rec0mmend the tours – they are fabulous and well worth adding to your list of things to do in San Francisco

San Francisco has always been an amazing adventure for me as both a former resident & visitor. From fresh baked Paisano Bread, Joes Special, freshly pulled Bay Crab, and chocolate at Ghirardelli Square. The sights and sounds of trolleys running up & down the streets, historic sights, working water fronts & wharfs. Oooohhhh……..time for me to put San Fran on my itinerary.
