Jamison_L, Jun 2026

Muir woods

Jeffrey was so GREAT!! He added onto the tour and showed us really cool parts of the city. His vibe was so chill as funny. My ten year old and I had such a good time. Muir Woods was of course beautiful. Also, Jeffrey waited for everyone to arrive and went out of his way to make sure they made it back to the bus. Even gave a couple different drop off locations. Great tour with great, chill, guide.

Desiree_C, Jun 2026

Beautiful Tour of Pebble Beach

This was such a fun experience. Suzy was a phenomenal guide and we felt safe at all times. My husband and our 2 boys ages 19 and 16 absolutely loved this experience. We have done other e-bike tours in other cities and this was the best one. The views on ride and the ease of the bikes made this a truly wonderful experience. Suzy was so knowledgeable and answered all of our questions with ease.

San Francisco Excursion: Guided Tour to Muir Woods and Sausalito

Alec_L, Jun 2026

Fun Tour To Muir Woods ans Sausalito!

It was a fun experience with Patrick our guide. He’s knowledgeable about the tour and funny with jokes at the same time. If he could tone down the jokes a bit and not step over our personal boundary more than once, then he’ll make an excellent tour guide.

Brilliant tour, absolutely loved it.

Fantastic tour! Absolutely loved it. Wylie, our guide, was great, really entertaining and had lots of knowledge and fun facts about the city and the films and TV shows that were filmed there, we even had a bonus location at the end for one party who were fans of a certain show. Three hours felt like 20min! Would definitely recommend for anyone considering this. Really enjoyed it.

A perfect place to unplug for the day

The bus is beautiful, so if you are into vintage cars or automobiles just in general, you’ll love being on this bus. The tour guide was funny and very knowledgeable about the sites on the tour. He even gave information about the city so if you are looking to move to Avalon, you actually have insider information as to where to start.

Whale Watching Excursion in Dana Point

Janelle_K, Mar 2026

The captain knew where to...

The captain knew where to go and was in contact with other boats about what they were seeing. He was great about telling us what side of the boat we needed to be in. And he said we saw an incredible 7 whales on our trip, as well as several groups of dolphins. They had drinks and made burgers available for purchase.

Emerald Bay Helicopter Tour of Lake Tahoe

Christian_Z, Aug 2025

Friendly, Safe, Fun views of South Lake Tahoe

Matt was super friendly and assuring. First time riding a helicopter and it was soooo much fun. Matt gave us informational bits throughout the ride of the views and surroundings. The helicopter was clean, safe, and secure. He gave us clear instructions prior to the ride and answered any questions we had. Would totally recommend to anyone who has never experienced and wants to see some nice views. To be clear it is a 10 mins ride where some reviews state it was not clear. So if you’re reading this… the ride is 10 mins.

Yosemite National Park 2-Day Tour from San Francisco with Lodging

Georgia_A, Jul 2025

A treasured memory!

The experience was nothing short of amazing much better staying the night than opting for a day trip. We stayed in Yosemite valley lodge and loved it. Another on our tour group stayed in the cabins type accomodation and didn’t like it. The small group was great and our guide was informative and helpful and it was really up to us what we did which we liked. We hiked to the top of Yosemite falls on day 2 - we are quite fit but it is a lot of work and about a 7hr return trip.
