A friendly and more personal tour. Should be the first thing you do on arrival. Wonderful snapshot of the city and great restaurant recommendations from our driver which were spot on!

We enjoyed the city tour very much. The mini van
was so much better than a large charter bus.
I did not like the fact that there was a group from another country and the guide had to repeat everything in two languages. I think that you should not mix the groups up when you know ahead of time that there would be a need for two languages. We felt sometimes that we weren't even included in some of the things she was saying. When the vans hold only 14 to 15 people you should not mix cultures. I would make sure in the future that it would only be English speaking in the group before I would book a tour with you.

Pace was good. Van was very comfortable. Tour guide was great. However, a couple of things we expected to see were not included. Have already recommended your tour.

Excellent tour, but I think a stop at Lombard Street would have been enjoyable to the others. ( I have been there before a few times) Our guide was knowledgeable, and helped us by dropping us off at other places at the end of the tour.

A very enjoyable and informative tour conducted on an informal basis. I liked the pick-up at the hotel and our guide arrived on time. The Luxury Vehicle was very comfortable and our tour guide, although obviously not a native of San Francisco, knew all about the city including its history. A very pleasurable tour.

My husband and I enjoyed our van trip. We were a group of eight; the small number of guests made the trip more enjoyable. The tour was given in English and French. My husband found the French piece a little annoying. I did not, however, I speak French so I got the information twice. The only thing we would have changed was to add a drive by to Coit Tower.
