It was a wonderful day of touring. We were with 2 teens and as hard as it is to please them, they really enjoyed it. They lived Alcatraz, Saulsilito, and billionaires mile. We loved Muir Woods. We felt we got a great history and feel for most of the highlights. Jason was a great guide, would definitely recommend it.

We LOVED our tour! Our guide Pat was the perfect combo of engaging and funny without being too cheesy or chatty. He had tons of knowledge about the city with lots of fun anecdotes along the way. We got to see a ton of the city and really get a sense of it’s character. We highly recommend this tour!!

Very fun and memorable tour. One thing I would change is making a bit more time for food. San Francisco has some very good seafood and we were not able to enjoy it for lunch. Instead we went with some recommendations that were quick and easily attainable in any non touristic location. Besides that, everything else was awesome.

Excellent tour. The morning started out rainy and foggy, but cleared up shortly after the tour began. We got some amazing pictures of Golden Gate and Muir forest was amazing. Our tour guide, Jake gave us a great recommendation for lunch in Sausalito which was Venice Deli. Jake was very knowledgeable about SF and took us to some great locations. Would definitely recommend.
