Our Background Our tours aren’t your leisurely strolls in sandals. Nope, you’ll need to lace up your hiking boots (or at least good walking shoes) and fill your Camelback for our expeditions. We've mapped out routes you won’t find anywhere else — where you’ll traverse hilltops, ascend endless stairways and explore all the hidden spots that you never even knew existed in this city. Come on an urban hike with us and you’ll see a side of the city that few get to experience!×

Bike the Bridge to Sausalito from San Francisco, and return via ferry. If you are in New York, discover the city on two wheels!×
