You can plan a day or weekend trip using dozens of interactive maps, photographs, links to web sites and other information on the app.
North Beach is San Francisco's historic Italian neighborhood, where vibrant streets are lined with cares, one-of-a-kind shops, restaurants and bars.
The wharf is the number one tourist attraction in the city, an area loosely defined as stretching from Ghirardelli Square south to Pier 39, filled with restaurants, bars, shops and attractions. Amid them all, you can still find authentic old San Francisco in the colorful fishing boats, the smell of boiling crab and oven-fresh sourdough bread.
The second app, San Francisco's Chinatown, includes more than 50 places in the heart of the city's large Chinese community, which was established during the Gold Rush.
The guide describes tucked-away dim sum parlors, elegant seafood restaurants, narrow alleyways that locals have used for generations to quickly navigate the dense neighborhood, historic sites, a variety of shops, quiet temples and hidden museums. There are also interactive maps that you can use as you're exploring Chinatown and more than 150 photographs so that you can plan your trip before leaving home.
Ferry Building and Embarcadero Tour
My award-winning walking tour produced by Visual Travel Tours, covers San Francisco's Ferry Building and the surrounding Embarcadero waterfront.

Included are lots of recommendations for shops and restaurants in the Ferry Building and public transportation options to get to and from the San Francisco landmark.
