Bring jackets or head covering if you get cold easy. The wind can get cold. Lovely tour on a sunny day with gorgeous views of the city and two bridges

It was an amazing way to see the city and the entire Bay Area! We went at the end of May and the sky cleared up just in time for our 11:45 ride. We had 3 elder guest who only spoke Spanish and they had a great time listening to all the history through headphones. The sitting options everywhere were also key. One elder had a cane and got to go to the front to board. She was given extra time before the rest rushed behind her. All in all highly recommend this for mixed age groups.
