Pacific Heights Tours
Perched up on a hill looking over the San Francisco Bay, Pacific Heights is a historic neighborhood considered by many to be one of the city’s most beautiful. Aside from its location and views, the many Victorian homes of Pacific Heights are some of the most elegant and historic in San Francisco. One particularly notable home is that of author Danielle Steel, who lives in Speckles Mansion, an estate that once belonged to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. There’s also the Haas-Lilienthal House, a 19th-century Queen Anne-style Victorian home that is open to visitors and admired by passersby. The historic house has been preserved to represent the era in which it was built. High-end boutique shops and restaurants line Fillmore Street, the main pedestrian street in the mostly quiet, residential area. The neighborhood is also home to Lafayette Park and Alta Plaza Park, with its rolling grassy hills, dog walkers, playground, tennis courts and stellar city views. Facing the water, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island and the Marin Headlands are all within view (pending the absence of fog).
Practical Info
Pacific Heights is located at the heart of San Francisco, west of Van Ness Avenue. Start your visit at Lafayette Park, located at Sacramento and Gough streets.
