Early in your stay - We enjoyed this bus tour which was a good overall view of a larger part of the city. We wish we could have arranged this tour for earlier in our stay because it did give us ideas of where to come back to in order to stay longer. We covered a lot of area on the bus so the stops were short and a bit rushed. Our guide, Michele, was knowledgeable and made the trip a very nice tour.

Excellent tour and superb customer service! - The 4-hour sightseeing tour through San Francisco was great, both in terms of the organization and the information provided. At the meeting point on Post Street, 1/2 hour before departure, a member of staff was there with the list of names of the participants and he made sure that we all got on the right bus at the right boarding point. The tour guide Michelle and the driver Thomas were both totally nice and friendly, Michelle was a font of information, both on city history as well as anecdotes about people, neighborhoods and parks. During the stops, Thomas chatted with the participants where they were from and how they liked SF and the tour. As the tour came to its conclusion, we were given tips for restaurants, one of which (Sears Fine Food) we used straight away and were completely satisfied. A very positive experience all round, we recommend it at any time!!

Amazing - Outstanding views, some of the best ever seen, every site you'd want in San Fransisco is covered, and plenty of time to use restrooms and go exploring. Highly reccomend, even for the price.

Great tour but very quick - The tour guides were great and the tour was awesome. It was inside a closed bus which was perfect for the cold wet weather of December. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. My only issue is it was so quick we only had a few short minutes to take pictures at the various locations. If you really want to explore and enjoy the sites I recommend a longer tour.

Nice Experience - Easy way to see the city, it’s like a cliff notes version. Sadly you cannot get close to Lombard street or the painted ladies, but the tour guide is wonderful (Michelle) and Jack the driver was great.

Not worth - Was a change from Grayline to Extranomical tours, which was crap. No proper time given on spots. Made to rush. Guide was not helpful in guiding us to the bay cruise.
