What are people saying about San Francisco

Jami_S, Aug 2026

See the city at Night

Traveled alone for business and wanted to see the city at night. Was a good way to do something fun and feel safe. Jamie was energetic and a good storyteller. Our group had energy readings the entire time. Fun time with nice people. I’d highly recommend.

San Francisco Fire Engine Tour

Excellent Fire Engine Tour

This was a truly fantastic 1 of a kind experience! Myself and my dad were met by 2 fantastic people (1 male driver and 1 female guide) from the start they were approachable, knowledgeable and passionate about their role. The tour was exceptional, the driver and guide as stated were very knowledgeable and filled the tour with facts and history. They were on hand to advise, take your picture and talk to us regarding the fire engine. If we were to come back we will be booking this!

Chinatown Walking Tour: Food, History & Flavor

Bob_H, Jul 2026

Best day in San Fran

This tour was one the three of is were looking so forward to on our Annual Sisters’ Trip. Our guide, Brian, made this a great day! From the meet up right on time, to the getting to quickly know all our group’s names, Brian was informative, witty and fun. The food was really wonderful, and plentiful, leaving us all stuffed and happy. Brian is a font of information and knows some great stories, the ones of SF’s tough living, Wild West gold mining days of bars, tongs and brothels, to its development into the bustling tourist city of today. One of the best foodie/history tours we have taken.

San Francisco Movie Sights City Tour

Donald_S, Jun 2026

Fantastic movie tour of SF

My family (wife, 20yo, and 16yo) had a blast on this intimate tour of San Francisco. There was a video playing inside the van showing movie clips of the actual places where the filming took place as you drive by. Bryan (our guide and “heroic” driver, aka safe and secure) narrated the whole time, answered questions, and shared extra interesting info about the places visited, not just the movie clips. So we learned a lot about the city than just movie locations. He also stopped a few times at larger points of interest for photos and to stretch our legs on this 3-hr tour. Highly recommended!

Small Group: Ultimate Napa & Sonoma Wine Tour from San Francisco

Michael_K, May 2026

Great Day in Napa

Was such a fun group of people to experience this with. Jeffery was our guide. He was funny, informative, personable and made this trip worth it. I’ve done similar tours and would say Dylan’s tour was the best so far. Jeffery was a huge part of that. Loooing forward to next time

Perfect Tour

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. If you're spending several days, this is a great start to planning the rest of your time. Highly recommend!

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.
