Come jump on a city tour with us to cruise through some of the 15 top city highlights including Union Square, Chinatown, North Beach, Hayes Valley, Golden Gate Park, the Haight/Ashbury, Western Addition, Civic Center and The Marina. Also, you get 3 stops for photo ops at landmarks such as The Golden Gate Bridge, Painted Ladies and Palace Of Fine Arts (shhhh ...on occasion you might see us driving down that crooked Lombard Street if traffic permits). Fun fun fun!

Bonus is you will be transported in one of our vintage VW buses while rocking out to classic hit songs of the 60's-70's (Pearl, Poppy, Skye and Rosie).

    We enjoyed our Kombi tour around San Fransico. Dominic, our driver, was full of interesting information and kept the narrative up the whole time. We liked the chance to hop off a couple of times to take photos. Would recommend.

    I arrived on time at 8:45 AM for the Painted Ladies tour, but unfortunately, a group of 7 co-passengers arrived significantly late. Our guide, Jack, was incredibly professional and clearly frustrated by the delay, though he remained calm and courteous. After waiting over 25 minutes — and more time for the late group to complete their waivers — I had to opt out as I had a flight to catch. Jack kindly dropped me off at City Hall and issued a full refund. I truly appreciated his understanding and professionalism. I was really looking forward to this tour and hope to take it next time I’m in San Francisco.
