Top San Francisco Cable Car Tours

From check in to intros around the catamaran, to hoisting the flag, to providing snacks and friendly conversation on the excursion, the crew was AMAZING. Everyone was super friendly and the vibe was like having a get-together with friends! I was traveling alone but didn't feel alone. Other passengers were friendly and it was a one-of-a-kind experience. I highly recommend this for the best view of the bay, the rolling fog, Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the city at night from the water. I took the sundown cruise starting at 7pm and the excursion was just about 2 hours long. Wear a warm windbreaker, because it is definitely windy and chilly out on the water, and there can be water spray up in front on the deck, but it's so much fun. There are tables and seating inside for passengers who don't wish to expose themselves to the elements, but the view is spectacular and I highly recommend dressing for cold/wet temps and enjoying this thrilling adventure. The crew was so nice, they were great hosts, even giving us chocolates as we left! Do something special for yourself, your family/friends and book passage on this catamaran.

We had a mixup on the place of pickup and drop off. Once that was resolved all was good. One of the best things about this tour is they picked you up at your hotel and dropped you back when the tour was over. Just make sure you let them know where you are staying. My husband and I have visited San Francisco twice and I visited twice for work. We saw more on this tour than any other one we took. Mike was very knowledgeable about all the different neighborhoods he brought us too. He obviously has a love and pride in his city and wanted to share it with all of us.

Approx two hours that covers many areas of San Francisco, most of them while seated in a comfortable, unique VW bus. Tara was a very knowledgable and funny local who has a heart for ALL the people of SF and isn’t afraid to say it or show it. We loved her! My favorite moment was driving down Lombard while listening to Tony Bennett sing “I left my heart in SF” Something about it was surprisingly moving to me. I’m so grateful we went on this tour!

Micheal was a great host and I appreciated that I could be picked up at my hotel. The drive wasn’t too long and Micheal had lots of details about the local history. The Muir Woods was amazing but a bit colder than I anticipated so I ended up having to buy a sweatshirt up at the gift shop. Bring a good jacket. The redwoods were absolutely breathtaking. Saulsalito was a gorgeous little harbor town. We only had an hour in Saulsalito so if I had to do it again I would forgo the tourist shops and sit down at a nice restaurant instead. I highly recommend this half day tour and would definitely do it again.

We were originally supposed to get the 3-wheeler, but it was very chilly that day. They let us have one of the enclosed golf-cart type cars instead. We had an absolute blast! I love the audio tour guide as we drove through the various areas. We could do our own thing or stick with the GPS route. Highly recommend!!

Ben Wood was an excellent guide and the whole day was so worth the money. Saw so much and even rock climbers on the way out of the park. Ben explained what to see for maximum time enjoyment and was a pleasure to spent the day with. Answered any questions we asked. Would highly recommend to others

Our driver/guide was very nice. We felt very safe going up and down the road to Muir Woods. He drove carefully and safely and provided us with a lot of interesting information along the way in relation to all of the things we were driving past. The charter bus was very clean and comfortable. Only issue was that the seat belts were quite stiff and difficult to put on and take off. Otherwise, it was a great experience! We also enjoyed our time in Sausalito and the ferry ride back to Pier 39.

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.
