Special trip - Brendan was fantastic - great personality, great information about the city as well as a passion for the city and its history. The tour in and of itself was great, but having Brendan as our guide took the experience to an entirely different level. Grateful for you Brendan!

Thorough yet timely - Guide showed us all the must see spots in San Francisco. And, we had mature time with the coastal redwoods, saw the Golden Gate Bridge and toured Alcatraz. We managed all this in a day layover from Tampa on our way to the Philanthropic. The perfect start to a “retirement “ trip celebrating my hubby’s recent retirement.

Went the extra mile - Brendan was an amazing tour guide! He drove us around the city (which we didn’t realize was even included in the tour) and provided interesting and funny facts and commentary along the way. When we went to cross the Golden Gate Bridge to go to Muir Woods, it was blocked by protestors and closed. Brendan ensured we still got to Alcatraz and then he offered to continue the tour the following day - which was his day off! - in order to make sure we got the full experience of Muir Woods and Sausalito. We so appreciated him going the extra mile and giving us an insider’s glimpse of San Francisco and the surrounding area. We would HIGHLY recommend this tour!

San Francisco Tour - Brendan was excellent. The tour bus was super clean and he was very knowledgeable about San Francisco. Unfortunately, we were unable to go across the Golden Gate Bridge on our tour day due to protests on the bridge, but Brendan was nice enough to pick us up again the next day and take us over to the woods. This was definitely above and beyond. If you are looking for a great tour of San Francisco, don't hesitate to book this one.

Enjoyable day out in SF - Brendan, our guide, was personable, funny and gave lots of interesting information and tips about San Francisco. The mini bus was comfortable and well-stocked with water and snacks. We had sufficient time to take pictures at the Golden Gate Bridge and walk around Muir Woods. Sausalito lunch options were plentiful. Alcatraz ferry were quite smooth. Just adding a note that the Alcatraz ferry ticketing booth asked for identification to match the booking. So it would be good to remind visitors to bring an ID or driver's license that matches the booking name.

Family with teen boys. - Brendan was our guide. We brought our 14 and 17 year old boys with us. Brendan knows this city well. He really loves this city. He put our pre-conceived ideas about this city to rest. This actually helped set the tone for our visit to SF. We also added the Alcatraz tour, which Brendan brought us right to the entrance to. My husband and I enjoyed the city tour portion (China town, little Italy, billionaires row), learning about the changes and challenges this city has experienced. Our boys slept through or looked at their phones for this part. Shocker 🙄. Muir Woods was such a treat. We had no idea about this part of SF. The weather was great, no fog during our tour, so the views were amazing. Sausalito was beautiful. Enjoyed lunch at Copito . If you go, get the mole! Boys' comments: would have liked to include Oracle Park. Redwoods were cool. Remind your kids to wear shoes they don't mind getting dirt on. Also, I want to add that this tour was great because it was a small bus. Only 11 of us in the vehicle. We could hear everything, unobscured views, snacks and water provided. Do your guide a favor and be on time. Don't rely on the trolly to get you there on time. We used cal train and the BART in the city, was great!

Invest in Experiences - We had only a limited time in San Francisco, but the captivating tour guided by Brenden left us with an unforgettable experience. His exceptional storytelling abilities not only captivated my tween-aged daughter and inquisitive husband, but also served as a valuable investment. It goes to show that investing in experiences, even if it's for a short period of time, can leave a lasting impression in our lives.
