From its indigenous people, to the Spanish explorers who sailed along the California coast in the 1540s, to the first Europeans to enter San Francisco Bay through the Golden Gate in 1775, to its early settlers in the 1800s, through its 83 years as a rough-and-tumble railroad town, to its evolution into one of the San Francisco Bay Area's most beautiful communities and tourist attractions, the history of the Tiburon Peninsula will come alive in these leisurely 1¾ to 2¼ hour walking tours.
Meet the Business Owner: Elliott B.
Elliott Brown is a Tiburon resident. A former teacher, entrepreneur and corporate executive, he has spoken to and trained numerous groups, and has designed and led workshops on many subjects, both here and abroad. In creating Tiburon Walking Tours, he has combined this experience with his passion for sharing knowledge and his love for Tiburon and the Bay Area.
Elliott's aim is to leave you with a new understanding of this beautiful area's history and evolution. To do that, he's collected information from many sources -- original newspaper accounts, magazines, historical books, local historians and town old-timers. Elliott will recount anecdotes about key people who figured in the history of the Tiburon Peninsula, illustrating each tour with dozens of historical photographs.
