What are people saying about San Francisco

Napa and Sonoma Premium Small Group Wine Tour from San Francisco

Patti_L, Oct 2026

Napa and Sonoma Wine Tour

The “luxury transport” was an oversized minivan. The four of us were picked up next to last so had to sit in the very back of the van. Not a comfortable ride! Despite the uncomfortable ride, we very much enjoyed the scenic stops and wineries we visited. Would recommend doing.

Chinatown, North Beach, Little Italy: 7 Tastings & History

Bern_L, Oct 2026

Pick Scott as your tour guide

We went on this tour with the expectation of finding out a little bit about San Francisco but we received so much more. Scott's knowledge of San Franscico history, the people that shaped the place it is today and the great food places he took us to were amazing. He also shared his knowledge of the artistic scene in San Fran. It went for 4 hours and I initially thought this was a long time, but it just flew. My favourite food stop offs were a fudge/ lolly shop and a tea tasting place but having said that all of the stop offs were great. I would highly recommend this tour

Louise_B, Oct 2026

Absolutely fantastic trip...

Absolutely fantastic trip to Muir Woods! The scenery was stunning, and the fresh air among the magnificent redwoods was just what we needed. Brandan, our tour guide, was funny, friendly and really attentive, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We also loved Sausalito, such a beautiful place to explore. A brilliant day out and definitely a highlight of our San Francisco trip. Highly recommend!

Small Group Yosemite and Giant Sequoias Day Trip from San Francisco

Maliha_H, Oct 2026

**Best day of our SF trip!** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Did the small group Yosemite + Giant Sequoias trip and honestly it was amazing. Our guide Derek was the best — super friendly, really knew his stuff, and made the whole day easy and fun. The views were unreal. Standing next to those giant sequoias and seeing the valley in person is something else. Plenty of stops for photos, never felt rushed. Derek knew all the cool spots Pickup was on time from our hotel and the small group made it feel personal. Totally worth it — ask for Derek if you can!

Muir Woods and Sausalito Small Group Tour

Elizabeth_M, Oct 2026

Beautiful, easy, fun!

This tour was exactly what I was looking for! We left at 2:10 promptly, got a lovely intro by our guide Johanna, stopped for photos of the Golden Gate Bridge and bay, then arrived at Muir Woods. It was breathtakingly beautiful and so peaceful. We then spent an hour in Sausalito, which was great for photos, ice cream/food, and souvenirs from local artists. We arrived back at the Pier by 6. A perfect little afternoon to see nature and the surrounding areas!

Napa and Sonoma Wine Country Full-Day Tour from San Francisco

Alexis_C, Oct 2026

10/10! Had the best time!

We went for the day tour for my mom’s 60th and it was perfect. The driver George was hilarious and so informative. All of the wineries were so different from 4 generations family ran to new and modern. The lunch stop in sanoma was also amazing. It’s nice with so many options in Napa to have a driver just drop you off and pick you up at quality wineries. We had a spectacular time!

San Francisco Bay Cruise

Le_C, Oct 2026

Amazing staff

Our boat cruise experience was amazing! The staff were so helpful, kind and accommodating, especially since we had our elderly mother with us on a wheelchair. They went above and beyond to help wheel her on and off the boat. Making sure she was comfortable and safe throughout the experience. We are truly grateful to the staff for their kindness and excellent service. Highly recommended!

The Levy Family San Francisco Tour

My family including my husband, daughter and 88 year old mother and I thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour tour of the San Francisco area. The tour was in an intimate retro VW van. Our tour guide Cyrus was very friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable about the San Francisco history and neighborhoods. We highly recommend this tour and tour guide.

Muir Woods and Sausalito Tour (Return by Bus or Ferry)

colleen_o, Oct 2026

Wonderful Memory

The tour was excellent, narrated history and other details along the way. Excellent overall. Just be aware if you elected ferry return, the Blue and gold ferry is only operating only two trips a day a very restricted schedule. While the other ferry does get you back to SF, it returns to I believe pier 1.

San Francisco City Lights Cruise

Richard_O, Sept 2026

A must do. Plan for the...

A must do. Plan for the weather. Don’t let a little chill keep you from seeing the most beautiful sunset and the coastline….and of course the city lights. Layer up as needed. I would do this again on the next trip. Get your beverage first because the line gets long and you don’t want to miss the view.
