What are people saying about San Francisco

Janetdobson61, May 2026

Fabulous

This tour was fabulous! What’s not to enjoy about being driven around San Francisco on the back of a vintage fire engine?! Driver John and Tour Guide Gail were great fun, as well as being very knowledgeable. You get to go to places that the usual bus tours can’t get to - and a breezy ride across the Golden Gate Bridge was a memory to last a lifetime. Highly Recommended.

Josh was an excellent tour guide! We learned so much about San Francisco and the sights! He took us to a long list of places and a gave us great overview of the area. It was so fun to tour in a VW bus. If you're short on time in San Francisco this is great tour to see the top sights.

A Must-Do for Film Buffs & Fans of SF!

We had such a great experience on this San Francisco movie tour this past weekend! Even as locals, Richard and I got to see the city in a completely different light. The tour was engaging, fun, and full of surprises—we learned so much about San Francisco’s rich film history and saw familiar places with a whole new perspective. It really made us appreciate the city in a deeper way. I’d highly recommend this tour to both visitors and locals. It’s a unique and memorable way to explore San Francisco and discover just how many iconic movies have been filmed here!

So cool!

Got my tickets from Viator immediately, and was easy to scan in! We got the 4:20pm time slot because it was the only one we could make work. 1 hour was not enough time! Plan for 2 hours minimum, 3 if y I u really like to read and listen to things! This museum had so much more than I thought it would.
