Custom Private Tour in Convertible MINI Cooper

Overview

You're in a special city. Why take an ordinary tour? This is the ONLY convertible MINI Cooper tour in the country!

This tour is totally customizable – you choose the length of the tour, what time you want to be picked up, and what you want to see.

I love San Francisco and have spent 20 years studying and exploring the city. I’ll work with you to plan your tour so you can see the famous sites and the hidden gems other tours can't go to or don't know about. I’ve designed this to be the type of tour I would take if I visited San Francisco, but where you go is up to you. I make suggestions along the way, but how long you spend at any site is up to you. You're never rushed, and never have to wait for other people. It's all about you!

Plus, it's fun! In the convertible MINI Cooper, you see everything up close and personal as we drive along.

I love showing guests San Francisco, and talking about the history and culture of this unique and special city.

What To Expect

Coit Tower

See the murals and views the bay and Golden Gate Bridge. How much time you spend is up to you.

Painted Ladies

Call it Postcard Row, the Painted Ladies, or the Full House houses, everyone loves seeing this site in person. And if you want to get out and take a picture, you can. As with all locations, if you want to get out is up to you.

Presidio of San Francisco

Drive through this former Army base turned national park. Stop and see the Yoda statue if you want.

North Beach

Learn the history and culture of this neighborhood that is a favorite of locals and visitors alike.

Lombard Street

If the time is right and there isn't too much traffic (usually weekend and holiday afternoons) we drive down the famous crooked st. If we can't drive down, we can at least drive by, and get out for photos if you want to.

Chinatown

Drive through this neighborhood, and learn about its history and culture. As I talk about the architecture, you can look up an see it as we drive through in the convertible MINI Cooper.

Haight-Ashbury

Drive down the street made famous in the 1960's, and learn why the music and culture made resonated around the world.

Golden Gate Park

Drive through the park, see the museums and the Japanese Tea garden. Guests enjoy driving through and learning the history of this urban garden created on top of 1,017 acres of sand. If open, there is an opportunity to go into the observation tower of the DeYoung museum.

Twin Peaks

Experience a spectacular view of the entire city, the Bay, and if the weather is clear, bridges as far south as Silicon Valley and up near the wine country.

16 Avenue Tiled Steps

The 16th Ave Tiled steps are only part of what you can see. I can show you a lesser known but equally as impressive tiled staircase, and what these staircases looked like before they were transformed into this urban art piece.

Mission District

See Mission Dolores, the Mission Murals, and location of what may be the best burritos in city.

This was s last minute trip and tour! Reed picked me up from my hotel then dropped be back after the tour. I can't thank him enough! His knowledge of the area was incredible@ Nothing was too much for him. He stopped for photo opportunities whenever I asked.

This tour was awesome and we talk about it to anyone who asks about our trip to San Francisco. We learned so much about San Francisco, the history and the layout of the city. I would also highly recommend this tour to any transplants to San Francisco so they can learn about the history of their city. Our 10 year old son was engaged and interested throughout the tour. Also, Reed was accommodating to any stops we did or didn’t want to make which made this tour feel very customizable. If you are visiting San Francisco you have to do this tour!

We visited San Francisco for three nights and wanted to see as much as we could. We researched hop on/off buses but I knew we’d spend a lot of time queuing and waiting so decided to book Reed and his mini tour. Reed is extremely knowledgable and accommodating. We had specific things we wanted to see such as the yoda fountain and painted steps and we managed to fit everything into a 4 hour tour. We went through all the different neighbourhoods, Chinatown and Little Italy, to the Coit tower, the GG Bridge and across it to a viewpoint the other side, and even a quick trip to Sausalito for an ice cream stop! We were able to drive down Lombard Street which was fun. We learnt so much about the history and varying architecture - we could never have done all this if we had gone around by ourselves. In our opinion, it was worth every penny. I believe you can reach Reed directly on 4155295404 or by his website at smallcarbigtimetours. Don’t hesitate if you want to make the most of your time in SF. Oh and Reed sends you loads of interesting information when you contact him - recommendations for restaurants he knows well etc. This was really useful to us. Sorry the review has taken so long, but better late than never! Thanks again Reed for a great day out.
