It was our first tour of San Fransisco and it was the perfect overview of the city. We only got off once and spent some time at Golden Gate Park (and visited the Japanese Tea Garden) but next time we will plan a longer day and do more stops so we can explore the city even more.

Convenient way to see san francisco. The tour guides knows the city and were very helpful. Wait time for the bus is not that long.

We laughed throughout the tour. Zee, our tour guide, was hilarious. His understated British humor kept all of us giggling. My 22 year old son was laughing out loud.

Darwon was WONDERFUL! He was funny, knowledgeable and sings terribly in the most entertaining way! Appreciated the blankets at the bridge. Were locals and just did this for fun and had a terrific afternoon. Thanks.

Excellent for seeing San Francisco at your own unhurried pace.

The roof-top bus was a much better experience than the double-decker bus. There were blankets available when we drove over the Golden Gate because it was freezing. Our driver was so appreciative of his tips and always had a joke to tell. We were also able to drive into China Town when the double-decker was not because of its size. It was a great way to experience San Francisco.
