Wonderful way to see and learn about San Francisco
This was such a great way to see many different areas of San Francisco our first day in town. We learned so much about the city and we had time at multiple sites to get great family photos. Josh was a fantastic guide - so friendly and knowledgeable - and a great photographer! Our teenagers loved it as well. It gave us great ideas of what we wanted to see more of in the city. Highly recommend!

The best tour and guide!
My husband and I loved Brian’s tour. He is so very knowledgeable and curates thoughtful snacks. We enjoyed spending our morning with him and learning all there is to know about San Francisco, and even other places he has been. Can’t recommend him enough!

A must do excursion!
Marcus and Tolie were fantastic guides! Marcus was very knowledgeable, personable, and engaging. He was very friendly and gave us some great must go to spots in Sausalito and San Francisco. Tolie was so nice and patient with my daughter and me. We are from Chicago where hills are nonexistent, and my daughter was a novice to the steep hills, but he stayed with us in back of the group and gave her some pointers and even fixed her kickstand when she had left it partially up. I really appreciated the professionalism from the fitting of the bikes, tutorial on how to operate the e-bikes, to the plan and what to expect on bridge, to how to handle traffic. I felt well prepared and my daughter felt confident and safe. I would recommend this excursion because it is a really adventure and to listen to Marcus’s recommendations on the ferry. I would urge people to book an early time during on a weekday and to get Marcus and Tolie as guides, they really made the experience something we will not forget!

Worth it
The staff was amazing. Very attentive to the needs of the people in my group. They allowed us to be first on the boat because of my in law. They were friendly from beginning to end. The girl behind the concession stand was also amazing. All in all worth it. During the boat ride you're given history of everything your passing and they even have translator devices for those who speak a language other than English.

Mitch made great memories for us!
Mitch is an outstanding tour guide and driver! He provided us an enjoyable experience in Yosemite and is a fantastic cheerleader for reluctant hikers(I actually made it to see Grizzly Giant Sequoia). He provided regular breaks and opportunities to stretch our legs as well as interesting information about the park. It was a great tour. Now, the room at the Lodge was disappointing—the place badly needs a remodel and update! That’s no fault of the tour company—I requested staying there onsite. Others had a choice of staying offsite. The dining room at the lodge was nice and our filet of beef was delicious. Breakfast in the breakfast/lunch facility was like MCDonalds but not as tasty. There’s a Starbucks there as well with basic choices only. So the natural areas of the park are the highlight and plan to be underwhelmed with accommodations except the dining room!

Excepcional
To be honest, the driver was just that a driver but he was polite; he would open the door for me whenever we stopped. I selected four wineries, and I believe they were truly the best choices. The tour was scheduled for eight hours, but we were charged for two extra hours a fee that included the driver's overtime pay. I didn't mind, as it really was an incredible experience, but I wanted to let others know that extra charges can apply. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this personalized tour because you get to choose the vineyards yourself, and you spend about an hour and a half at each location. I chose Domaine Carneros, Artesa, Sterling, and Castello di Amorosa... definitely don't miss the gondola experience at Sterling, and whitout a doubt the best wine is at Castello di Amorosa!!!

Excellent tour.
The driver was a knowledgeable and professional guide, and his car was very clean and comfortable.
He was very flexible and took us to the places we wanted to go as well as places on the itinerary and others that he recommended. Nothing was too much trouble for him as he stopped to allow us to take photos wherever possible.
I would highly recommend this tour.

Marcus is awesome!
The trip started a little rocky with our guide calling after 10 ( trip started at 10) to say they would be at the shop in 20 minutes. Marcus showed up for his 11:00 city tour trip and saved the day. I was able to go on his tour instead- and I'm so glad the first trip didn't pan out!! Marcus knew a lot of San Francisco history, and had a great book on the ride to share even more! If I were to do it all again I wouldn't hesitate to book the city tour with Marcus- worth the 4 hours if you want to bike through all parts of the city. I had plenty of time to bike to Crissy park, onto the Golden Gate bridge, into Sausalito with a quick bite to eat and back to the shop before time to turn in the bike. Thank you Marcus for showing me around the amazing San Francisco!

Perfect tours
Always book a City Tour as soon as possible when visiting a new city .Our tour guide Randy gave us a stress free day ,SF history and Rock n Roll nostalgia with music . Simply Marvelous. He filled the 3.5 hours better than I could ever imagine. Thank you Viator.

A highlight of our SF visit, awesome spooky tour that honored the historical context..
Jamie was awesome and knowledgeable, had a really greatest balance between what could be considered paranormal vs explainable. We had a really spooky occurrence that was not related to any of the stop points, and he let us honor that experience with time and intention to investigate. Honored the historical context.

Fun afternoon in Sonoma!
Our driver, Jerry, made the trip interesting with the history & local knowledge. He was very kind & a very fun afternoon. Peter Cellars winery had the best wines & a very quaint atmosphere. The best was delicious wine with his 3 adorable & sweet dogs that weee happy to greet us. We also visited Roche Winery with breath taking views of the vineyards, beautiful patio, & surrounding mountains. Highly recommended this trip & would do it again.

The tour was exactly what...
The tour was exactly what was presented on the website. We did not expect a tour guide but we did get some very informative sailors. The captain and first mate were exceptional and gave a wonderful trip around the bay. Two things they couldn’t control were the low winds and flies:-)
