This is a great tour. Fun and informative with beautiful scenery and excellent tour guide. We took the Miss Daisy van. Loved it, loved it! A must do while in San Francisco! I'd take it again!
We have just done the San Francisco Tour with Clay as our driver today. We were recommended the tour from friends who recently did one of these tours. It was well worth it, you get to see many parts of the city you probably wouldn’t get to if you were trying to do it all yourself. Clay was great fun and in our son’s words “a very funny driver” he made the experience more enjoyable, especially the bit when you get to see Lombard Street. We all had a great time and would highly recommended this tour to anyone who wants to get to see more of the city and have fun along the way.
Very nice guide who told us a lot about the city
Clay was an amazing guide! Such a great way to discover the city and tons of fun along the way! Do it first when visiting and you’ll have a list of places to return!
Cousin Al was awesome! Good time had by all.
Pick up near Union Square- easy to locate. Your leader, Cousin Al was friendly and peaceful. He talked to us as he drove the hills of SF. From Fisherman’s Wharf to China town and through multiple neighborhoods- Haight Ashbury, North Beach, China town, Sunset to see Painted Ladies, travel Lombard street- (crooked street). Bouncing along in a painted 70s van is the only way to tour. Would definitely do again- Cousin Al knew about locations, where and who of Haight Ashbury and all the important sights. I did this tour first for a good overall lesson and history of SF. I would definitely do this again! Thank you Cousin Al for your intellectual discussions and your understanding of what makes SF so special.
The tour was great, saw parts of San Francisco which would have taken days by foot or bus. Cousin Al was a great guide, funny and knowledgable, found out lots about SF and had a great time, he had plenty of time for questions and jokes, would definitely recommend if you were in SF for a few days
Amazing experience! Jack was a great tour guide. I appreciated the context and details he gave us about each neighborhood and historical site we visited. I recommend to every newcomer in SF!
As a lover of classic VW vans this was such an amazing tour! We loved the entire thing as we were able to see many of the landmarks that make SF the awesome city that it is! Jack our tour guide was VERY knowledgeable and made the whole experience so perfect! Highly HIGHLY recommend!
Loved this tour if you only have 2 hours you can see it all - the VW bus was super cool. Saw so much and learnt so much of San Francisco in a fun way. Guide Jack was amazing - so informative. I did 3 different tours while here and this was the best 🙌🙌
