Randy was amazing. Took us everywhere. So knowledgeable about the area. The tour was fantastic. Brought us right to where we needed to be for Alcatraz

Great inside Tour to San Francisco. Very knowledgeable guide driver Jerry. A few stops for photo opportunities. Would have liked a couple more but I am greedy. Alcatraz was good. Having tickets prepaid with the tour tickets helped.

Thorough introduction to SF including history, neighborhoods, the bay/ocean front, major buildings. Jerry made sure to hit the highlights and answer questions and was a safe/careful driver. We like the hotel pickup. He was very careful to then make sure we were on time to the Alcatraz ferry and had the proper code and knew exactly where to go to get our pre-reserved tickets. We had a great time with him and on Alcatraz too.

I did not get picked up at my hotel. Didn’t really like the tour of city. We didn’t stop at the places that was on the itinerary. Will not recommend

My guide was great and had lots of knowledge. Disappointing with the cost and bang for buck. Not sure that was worth the money I paid. Overall good day but not a spectacular one.
