    The Presidio, which is a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation area, was a former United States Army post.  The National Park Service has repurposed the area to provide numerous recreational opportunities to visitors.  The well-maintained trails offer opportunities for hiking and biking, There are several spots along the trails to get awesome views of the Golden Gate Bridge.  Of course, the views of the bay waters are beautiful from everywhere.  Unfortunately, parking could be an issue on busy days.  But, the place is well worth a visit.  One can spend hours and hours as one wishes.

    A great afternoon touring the Presidio with Julie, who was a fun, friendly, and very knowledgeable guide. She did an excellent job of blending history with current happenings to give us insight into the roll the Presidio has had in history, as well as current times. She was very gracious in adjusting her schedule to accommodate us. In conversations ahead of booking I had asked if there was enough content for four locals familiar with the Presidio. The answer was "Yes" and I couldn't agree more. We learned so much and left with a much deeper appreciation of this wonderful SF asset. If you are considering booking, don't hesitate! It was a great experience, well worth the very reasonable cost and time commitment.

    This walk through the Presidio to the Golden Gate Bridge was full of interesting history and information about the area. Julie, our guide, was fun, friendly and full of great stories as she is from this area. We had a walk, picnic lunch and fabulous views - I highly recommend!

    We start at the Lombard & Lyon street entrance to The Presidio, and stroll through the Letterman District (Lucasfilm ). Of course, there will be plenty of opportunities for pictures! We'll walk through several historic neighborhoods, viewing the changing landscape as we learn about the history of The Presidio and it's future projects. On the main post, we’ll hear stories about what life was like for officers and enlisted soldiers who lived here. Then, it’s onto the Presidio Officers' Club, one of the oldest buildings in San Francisco. At the National Cemetery, we’ll hear curious stories of some of the people buried here, and take in a spectacular view of the bay from the overlook where we will eat our own lunches & snacks. After a break we'll continue our walk past historic Cavalry stables where the famous Buffalo Soldiers once camped, and check out the Pilot's Row historic neighborhood as we continue our walk to the Golden Gate Bridge!
