All of our tour guides are Bay Area Natives, which will help you understand what it’s like to grow up in SF and now live here as grown ups with our own families. You will enjoy an introduction to San Francisco on this 5 to 6 hour tour that includes Neighborhoods like Chinatown, North Beach, Pacific Heights and a trip across the Golden Gate Bridge to Muir Woods National Monument. You'll be driven around the city to see its diverse neighborhoods and geography, stopping several times for photo ops. At Muir Woods, admire the towering redwood trees, and visit the waterfront town of Sausalito for lunch (own expense). Works great for people coming from cruise ships.

5.00Great tour it’s a long day we packed a lot in! I would have liked to spend more time in Saulsalito that was the only rushed part and it was so cute with great places to eat and explore. We opted for add on Alcatraz tour which is self guided after the rest and it was an 7-8 hour day! Very enjoyable! The tour is pricey especially when adding in tip at the end but we thoroughly enjoyed it!

5.00Great into to San Francisco. Our driver, Alex, was knowledgeable and kind. The trip seemed short with all of the different stops, but I feel like we got to see so many of the iconic San Francisco spots. I wish we had had a little more time at a few of them.
Best time!
