Top San Francisco Bus Tours

The tour guide Alex was fun and informative! Taught us a lot about the history of San Francisco. He also went out of his way to help my son who left his phone behind 🤦🏻‍♀️ It was a perfect way to hit many spots we wanted to see without having to drive, park and find our way.

We had a great time cruising around the city with Matt! Daisy was an incredible bus and so fun to ride around in! Fun historical tidbits with good music, a pleasant group all around, and a chance to see so much more than on foot. Thanks again, Matt, for the trip! Don’t think twice, just book it.

This was one of the high lists of our trip to San Fran! An hour and a half was just the right amount of time to spend sailing around the bay and taking the sights. The crew was incredible. They were friendly, engaging and passionate about San Francisco area. They took the time to talk with everyone, answer questions, and share their knowledge of the bay. They were wonderful hosts and really made sure everyone had a great time. Highly recommend this experience!

What a fun tour. It had a well planned out route, and we saw so much of the city. Our guide was informative and entertaining throughout. The 60's theme was especially interesting and fun. Our only complaint was that we missed our first scheduled tour by literally 5 minutes. The van was pulling away as we drove up looking for parking. We tried calling both the tour company and Viator to say we were there but couldn't get ahold of anyone. Wished we would have received a call to check on our status. When we were finally able to reach Viator were were told if we wanted to join a later tour we'd need to pay again. We ended up for the tour the following morning and paying again. A bummer, but still a really fun tour.

Make sure you get some comfortable shoes and some bottles of water are available. We were quite lucky with the weather but you can take a fleece or jacket with you and leave in the van. There are loads of photograph opportunity and Peter knows the best spots.

We booked a Muir Woods and Sausalito trip with Gray Line. Our tour guide( I believe his name was Richard) was excellent. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He was an great driver, some of those hairpin turns were very tight! The Muir woods was amazing! The redwoods are huge! Sausalito was a cute little water front town and we had some delicious tacos at a place called Copita. I would highly recommend this tour!

My girlfriends and I had a great experience. It was misty in the city but once we got into the valley it gorgeous weather. Each vineyard and winery were special in their own way. Our last winery was at Madonna Estate Winery which was beautiful, warm and inviting. The size of our group and the smaller size tasting room felt claustrophobic. Otherwise an amazing experience and the perfect way to kick off the vacation!

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
