San Francisco Ice Cream ToursDive into a Scoop-tastic Journey

Join us on a lip-smacking expedition, savoring a symphony of textures and tastes in every delectable bite.

 

  • Curated Creams Join our ice cream aficionados as they lead you through a sweet maze of three unique stops. At each, indulge in three delightful tastings that are bite-sized pockets of heaven – not giant, overwhelming scoops.
  • Variety’s the Spice We’ve handpicked destinations that promise an enchanting mix of classic ice creams, luscious gelatos, and daring flavors that will tantalize and satisfy your taste buds.
  • The Art of ChoiceWe’ve mapped out two distinct tasting routes. Depending on the day and the parlors’ availability, our experts select the most flavorful path for your journey.
  • Scoop Stories As we hop from one parlor to the next, we’ll sprinkle in amusing tidbits: quirky ice cream trivia, its fascinating history, and delightful facts that’ll enhance your ice cream adventure.
  • Note: If dairy isn’t your ally, tread lightly. The majority of our selections, roughly 75-85%, contain dairy, with very limited or no alternatives.

Where Does the Ice Cream Magic Begin and End?

We kick things off at Umbrella Alley on the western edge of Fisherman’s Wharf for a quick intro. Depending on the day, you’ll either explore The Mission and Potrero Hill districts or The Fillmore and Lower Haight Districts. The route for the day is determined by the operating hours of our selected purveyors. Unfortunately, we can’t mix and match routes, as these locations are scattered across the city.
