The perfect experience for the whole family! This breathtaking 2 mile walking tour of San Francisco's hidden stairways is the #1 rated Airbnb Experience in the Bay Area, loved by both locals and tourists alike. See gorgeous mosaic tiled steps and hear the stories behind them, then take in stunning 360° views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Golden Gate Park and downtown San Francisco. You'll also discover beautiful neighborhoods and gardens that many locals are not aware of and that tourists rarely see. Oh, and you might even go home with a succulent! I'll provide commentary, context and some history along the way. Generally SF is dry May-October. There can be fog in the summertime, mostly in the morning. Temps rarely above 70F (21C) or below 50F (10C). Rain may cancel. Guests should be reasonably fit. Though we don't cover many miles, some of the terrain is steep. It will be necessary to carry small children as strollers are not suitable. If you bring a guest that’s under 18, it’s your responsibility to make sure the activities they participate in are age-appropriate. Instagram: @hiddenstairsSF or hiddenstairsSF@gmail.com

Because of COVID-19, we are only booking GROUPS consisting of your household/pod/family. If you want a SOLO experience you MUST book as a Private Group. Because of the Santa Cruz mountain fires last summer, some forests are unavailable. Based on your group's needs, we will take you to a beautiful and age-appropriate local redwood forest. There may be a $10/car entrance fee at some locations. Is the Redwood Forest calling you? Would you like to know it in a new way? In this guided experience you will make a personal connection with the Subtle Realms of the Redwood Forest. We will meet in Santa Cruz, and then caravan to the trailhead in the heart of Redwood country. Going into the Redwood Forest together, we will walk, pause, energize all our senses, and attune with the Subtle Realms of Nature. The gift of music will set the tone, and our loving presence will open the way. We will call on the Elements---Earth, Air, Fire and Water---to bring us to a new understanding of the aliveness and interconnectedness of the natural world. At the end, we will spend a few minutes writing about our experience. This will help you to recall how to connect with the Subtle Realms back home. As we complete our time in the Forest together, you can choose to stay longer on your own, or walk out with the group, fully energized with a new vision of our interconnectedness.

The cooking experience features a clever and unique combination of distinctive sweet, sour and spicy flavors simultaneously. We will prepare two appetizers, two entrees, and complimentary homemade Indian bread from scratch from my collection of recipes that I have curated and perfected over the last 30 years. The experience will start with a nice bottle of red wine where guests can get to know each other. After this, we'll learn to make two delicious appetizers. Gujarati food is known for its wide variety of appetizers. Gujarati appetizers are the most popular and often served at most Indian weddings. I learned this is watching my grandmother and mother and siblings cooking various exotic and exciting food; I kept a keen eye on what they got up to in the kitchen. After preparing the food, we will have a nice sit-down meal together as a group with a nicely paired white wine with Gujarati-style Indian food.
