Traveler reviews
Avoid At All Costs
3 times we booked this tour. 3 times they cancelled. We changed our plans to accommodate this tour. On two occasions they lied, firstly telling us that they had insufficient numbers to proceed with the tour - only to then tell us the next day that it was sold out! When I sent them the previous explanation of insufficient numbers, they said there was a communication error. Simple message: avoid this tour at all costs. Plan another way of seeing San Francisco in which you won’t have to constantly change your travel plans. Hugely disappointing.

Express City Tour
Our driver and tour guide is informative and friendly. The tour took 4 hours with 4 stops (the stop is short for 10-15 minutes only)
A Good morning tour - well worth it.
Booked this though our travel agent. Pickup and dropoff point short walk from our hotel. Coach with multiple stops around the city for a couple of hours. Unfortunately we didnt see much of Golden Gate Bridge due to fog, but no-one can help the weather. Stopped at many places for information and photos. Friendly helpful guide. Well worth it
Need better tour guide
Tour guide Michelle was very knowledgeable but has no personality. She was reluctant to take questions and used no humor or personal anecdotes.
