About this tour

Discover the Presidio through a self-guided history treasure hunt that turns a walk among San Francisco’s historic and cultural landmarks into a playful puzzle. Follow clues across the park, explore at your own pace, and use augmented reality to reveal extra facts and photos along the way.

Your clue package includes a map, solutions, and simple instructions for getting started. There’s no fixed route: solve the clues in any order and walk to each location as you choose. The Main Post sits at the center of the hunt area, with the Disney Museum on Montgomery Street suggested as a convenient place to begin or finish. The experience takes about 150 minutes, and participants of all ages can join in, with adults and older kids helping solve clues and everyone pitching in for photos. Bring a pen or pencil and a smartphone to download and use the augmented reality app; QR codes are provided.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
