Top San Francisco Bus Tours

This was a truly memorable trip, from start to finish, Alex was an excellent tour guide with so much knowledge. It was an amazing day out, we got to see so much in one day. Muir Woods was such a relaxing place to visit, Sausalito was a beautiful picturesque place too. So many photo opportunities to be had also. Overall a brilliant day out with such a good guide, Alex. Thank you so much.

I had a wonderful time on this tour on September 14th. I was assigned a morning tour at Alcatraz, and I’m glad I started off there because its a “heavy” place mentally but I learned so much about the history of the island and the ongoing issues with the US prison system. Then I had a break to get some lunch before meeting up with the tour guide at Fisherman’s Wharf. The van ride was nice and we had a chance to take photos with the Golden Gate Bridge. Muir Woods was amazing. I did the full 2 mile loop which they advertise as taking 1.5 hours, and even though I’m not in good shape I am a fast walker and I completed it in a little under an hour (there are some stairs in the middle that allowed me down). The driving tour with stop at Palace of Fine Arts and cruising through China Town and Little Italy was cool.

My mom and I have done this same tour for 3 years and we love it! They change up the wineries so it’s always fun. This tour is a great value because they pick you up in SF, take you to all the wineries, you pay no tasting fees and they bring you back to SF. Just have to worry about lunch which they drop you at Sonoma square for. We love Danny the tour guide! He is so nice and funny and a wonderful guide.

Our park tour was nothing short of stunning. Derek (our guide) was so knowledgeable and personable that folks were leaving other tour groups to come over and listen in. We saw more than we could have imagined, including climbers on El Cap with the spotting scope he brought along. Highly Recommend!!!

LOVED this tour! Tara, our guide, was WONDERFUL in every way possible - ensuring we saw many sites - learned so much about SFO - and her humor kept us laughing throughout the entire tour! She had a great sixties type playlist that was perfect for our very colorful “hippie themed” VW BUS! Tara, has an amazing voice too as she sang a bit of those good ole nostalgic songs! Tara’s small and exceptionally sweet dog, Rosie, accompanied us on our tour - she’s extremely well behaved and has her own little bed - she enhanced our trip too! What a FUN and memorable way to explore SFO - HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you for a very fun and informative tour!!

It’s a long day with a lot of driving, but well worth it. The views are spectacular and iconic and taking advantage of a tour guide who knows the history and best places to stop for views made it so much easier than trying to rent a car and figure it all out myself. Our guide Lana was well-informed, easy going, and made sure everyone on the tour had what they needed for a great day.

Unique way to see San Francisco. If you are coming from a country that drives on the other side of the road you're in for a treat. Our GPS was playing up and we missed Lombard Street but they were more than happy for us to go back out for free to drive down it. We did it on a Saturday and the traffic was pretty bad. 3 hours was tight and we couldn't see the painted ladies in our allotted time.

Goes fast but just the right time with restless kids. Took my 13&16yr old. Three level boat. Top windy but lots of benches to sit (many non English speaking people tried to reserve a few benches for themselves. We just sat down anyhow and ignored the hand waves). But honestly it doesn’t matter because once the boat starts moving everyone stands and looks around and seats open up. They only sell beer, white claw, pop, and snacks only on the bottom level. The white claws they offered were THE BIG ones. $10. All the levels have bench seats with backs to them. The bottom level and second level is all enclosed seating. The speaking of the history part is all automated by speakers. I found it to be very clear but harder to hear on top deck due to wind. Temp today Sept 1, was 70 ,and my teen boys were chilly up top but I liked it. Most people brought light jackets.The beginning and end was windy but near Alcatraz it got substantially less windy probably due to the terrain. The Boat gets very close to Alcatraz which was cool and made for good pics. At the end I didn’t see anyone taking tips or a tip jar out for tips which was also VERY nice because this town is tip happy. It’s WILD. I would do it again. Great time. We did the 530p tour which made it nice for pics as the sun was coming down
