A super fun way to see all of San Francisco! - Outstanding tour! Our guide was so knowledgeable about the dozens of movies filmed in San Fran and even had inside information about them. While we toured, he showed us clips of the movies filmed at the sites that were right in front of us! Definitely a worthwhile experience that me and my teenage daughter enjoyed! A great way to tour San Francisco!

Bullitt fan pilgrimage! - Bryan was a fantastic tour guide, very accommodating and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour if you're into movies, you'll also have a great tour of the city! I'm a huge Bullitt fan so he very kindly pointed out the major spots, we also called by the Yoda fountain at ILM HQ!

Amazing unique experience - We had a great time with Bryan!
He has created a unique experience that you won’t find anywhere else.
It’s impressive enough that he has put together so many locations with so many movie clips. To then map out a route that ties in directly with the videos is truly a labor of love.
I highly recommend this trip.

Movie scene tour - The whole tour was amazing from start to finish and Brian the driver was brilliant, put a new perspective to just looking at a building or street.

Movie magic with an SF twist! - We had a great time on this excursion and would recommend it unreservedly to anyone who loves the movies. As well as showing you first hand where many iconic scenes were filmed in SF, your guide provides insightful and funny commentary, brilliantly linked with video footage! The tour also doubles up as a tour of the city and was informative as well as being a lot of laughs. Brian is a top host and our trip with him was one of the absolute high points of our visit to San Francisco.
