5.00Great overview tour of SF city, Muir Woods, and Sausalito. Very knowledgeable guide - Sully. Timeline for day was a little tight. Could have used a little more slack in the schedule.
Great tour!

5.00It was a wonderful tour to see the sights of the city before heading to GG bridge, Muir Woods and Sausalito. Our tour guide, Sully, was WONDERFUL! His knowledge about the history of the city, with his friendly personality, made this an extra-special tour.
Great tour. Packed a lot into 6 hours!

5.00We had an amazing day and managed to pack so much into just six hours. Our guide, Sully, was outstanding - knowledgeable, patient, and full of energy throughout the tour. It was the perfect experience for my 15-year-old twins, who have very different interests, as there was something for everyone to enjoy. The day struck a great balance between activity and chill, making it both engaging and enjoyable from start to finish. We opted not to do the Alcatraz portion, which was ok with us.
Great tour!!

5.00Brendan was extremely well informed and entertaining. He told us tons about the city and how to get around. He threw in some bonus sight seeing spots and was helpful in taking pictures, providing drinks and snacks, and being hilarious. The trip was comfortable and organized, and felt like a really good way to maximize your time sightseeing, especially if you have limited time during your visit.
