What are people saying about San Francisco

Great tour for newbies!
The perfect tour for anyone who has never been to this area before. We learned so much and saw so many cool things, beautiful views, and it was everything from the city to the woods. Our guide, Per, was knowledgeable, engaging and fun, and offered so many recommendations. The time absolutely flew by!

Great experience
Absolutely loved the GoCar experience! We rented the cars for one hour, while others in our group rented theirs for three hours. I think the three-hour rental is probably better, but even the one-hour route includes Lombard Street and the Golden Gate Bridge.
Driving the car was a real adventure and so much fun. The service was excellent, and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. I was driving by myself, got lost, and returned early. They told me that when the rest of my group returned, someone could take me to Lombard Street—which was truly amazing customer service.
My only criticism is that the GPS could be better. It tells you which route to follow, but the directions can be confusing, so it is easy to get lost.
Despite that, I would still give the experience five stars—and the staff a definite 10 out of 10!

Best Tour of San Fran!
One of the best tour I’ve ever been on. So much fun in the bus and our tour guide was so knowledgeable and fun! We hit all the primary site we wanted to see. The bus provides a small group setting allowing for time to ask questions and much better experience than a larger group tour. HIGHLY recommend! And shout out to our tour guide Dave! Amazing job!

Small Group, Big Highlights
This tour was the perfect introduction to San Francisco! It gives you a great overview of the city by driving past many of the iconic landmarks in just a few hours, making it easy to decide where you want to come back and explore later.
My tour guide was fantastic: friendly, knowledgeable, and full of fun facts, local tips, and recommendations that made the experience even better. I also loved that the group was small (about 8 people in the van), which made it easy to ask questions and actually see everything without feeling crowded.
The three photo stops are short, but they’re at excellent viewpoints and perfect for getting some Instagram-worthy pictures.
As a solo traveler, I honestly can’t recommend this tour enough. You get an incredible amount of value for the price, and it’s a great way to get your bearings before exploring the city on your own. I’d recommend keeping notes of the places and recommendations your guide mentions so you can revisit them later.
One thing that really stood out was the customer service. My original booking didn’t meet the minimum group size, so I was moved to a different tour. Unfortunately, that caused me to arrive late, but the guide was incredibly gracious and made me feel welcome without any hassle.
Whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner, or as a family, I’d absolutely recommend this tour. It’s one of the best ways to kick off a trip to San Francisco.

Wonderful experience!
Had a wonderful guide, Roman. He was funny and informative. Ride there and back was great. He dropped us off at the Golden Gate Bridge, as requested, because we wanted to walk across. He gave us detailed instructions on how to get to the walkway and the path to the Palace of fine arts.
The Sausalito visit was unnecessary in my opinion there should be an option of just Muir Woods and back.

Remarkable - Yosemite and Tour Guide
My wife and I had the most wonderful time on the tour. The guide was wonderful and made sure we saw all the top destinations of Yosemite as well as the learn the history of Yosemite including how it became a national park as well as the capital of rock climbing. I highly recommend this tour!

Muir Woods tour
The trip to Muir Woods is very, very winding and if you have motion sickness, take a Dramamine.
Jake was very informative and an excellent driver, but the roads are difficult for someone who gets motion sick.
The tour was amazing and you are in a magical world of redwood trees. We were transfixed by the incredible wonder of it all!

It was a very hot day! I...
It was a very hot day! I wish I would have taken a swim suit.
Tips are expected, I think they should pay their tour guides more since it is not cheap for this tour. It was a great day a long bus ride but so worth it!
You don’t get very long at the park so take the bus!

Fun adventure.
Summer is foggy and cold but we had a fantastic time regardless. Especially under the Golden Gate Bridge. The staff is very helpful and enthusiastic. They have light snacks so it’s best to eat ahead of time. The boat does make really loud knocking noises that can be very alarming but we were told that’s normal. We had a great time and would recommend. We will book another type of tour with them again.

Fantastic
Fun boat ride! Get to go past Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge! Really enjoyed the commentary, but wish we would've gotten the handheld one instead of the one over the speaker, since we couldn't always hear due to the wind. Great priced for what you get!!

Wine Tour
Great day at 3 different wineries in Napa and Sonoma. We also stopped briefly on the north side of the golden state bridge for a photo opportunity. They have hotdog and fruit vendors there. I would Highly recommend eating a big breakfast or bring snacks since the lunch break is around 1:30 and you have already hit two wineries. Audio did not work on our bus so couldn’t understand anything the driver said. Other than that it was Fun

Fun and easy to navigate tour
Our driver was fun and knowledgeable in sharing information pertinent to the tour. We especially appreciated his genuine interest in, and enthusiasm for preserving both the history of the area and in the fate of the trees. He was very clear on when things needed to happen.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Of all the San Francisco bus tours, the “love” tours that zip around the city from the Painted Ladies Victorian homes to the Twin Peaks viewpoint in Volkswagen vans might be the most fun. If these offbeat treks are a bit granola for you, other bus tours are convenient for exploring the city and surrounding areas in comfort. Hop-on hop-off bus tours offer ultimate flexibility and freedom, while guided coach tours travel to Muir Woods and even as far as Yosemite National Park and the Monterey and Carmel area.
