Greg was absolutely a wonderful guide on this Hidden Stairway tour. We had a scheduling conflict and wasn’t able to make it to our initial scheduled time and he was able to let us join another group at our convenience if we wanted. We didn’t know if it would work out but it did and I was so glad because we really enjoyed the walk around the Sunset district viewing these beautiful landmarks, homes, amazing succulents and other flowers he pointed out to us that were edible, and the beautiful skyline of SF and the Golden Gate Bridge which if your lucky enough the clouds won’t hamper your view. But hey that’s SF! Greg took all the pictures on his phone for everyone and sent them to us at the end including a video he made. He was hands down a terrific tour guide!
Best money spent in SFO

Greg was a superb tour guide. He was pleasant, kind and knowledgeable. Outside of touristy places and a wonderful way to get your exercise in. Make sure you dress in layers as it got really windy when we got to the highest point. Greg takes pictures and a video of the tour and sends to you within minutes of the completion. Can't say enough about this experience!
It was a great experience...

We had an awesome time at the Hidden Stairs walking tour! Greg was an awesome tour guide and we enjoyed learning about the history of the mosaic steps and some SF neighborhoods. The steps were gorgeous as well as the succulent gardens! Although it was VERY foggy and we missed out on the views, we had an awesome time. I also appreciated that Greg took pictures throughout the walk and sent them to us at the end of the tour. I definitely recommend this tour!!

Excellent walking tour

Greg is an absolute gem of a city expert and tour guide. He knows so much about his city and is so happy to share his knowledge. The tour is the perfect way to spend the mid morning/early afternoon. The sights are unlike any I could have found on my own. Greg even took several pictures that he shared in the end. This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever been on. SF is so lucky to have Greg.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
