Christopher JamesOctober 12, 2013Thought it was shit, really. The elevator has space for about ten people. The lines are long and the views obscured by glass. Total waste of money. Avoid this con.
Christopher GallagaAugust 2, 2017It seems they close the walk-up free self tour at their whim. That sucks.
Check out the mini murals in the rock wall along the walking path
Sandra SzilasiOctober 3, 2011The Filbert Street Stairs are not as brutal as the Internet may have you believe.
Ted RheingoldMarch 27, 2010The elevator ticket is worth it. Park by Levi Plaza and walk up the Filbert Steps
SharonJuly 28, 2009Don't take Muni -- climb up the hill that Coit Tower sits on. It's a brutal series of stairs.

"Gardens lining mostly wooden steps. Don't trip - but don't forget to look up for spectacular views and don't be afraid to say hello to the residents of Telegraph Hill."
