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
1
Coit Tower
See the murals and views the bay and Golden Gate Bridge. How much time you spend is up to you.
2
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.
3
Presidio of San Francisco
Drive through this former Army base turned national park. Stop and see the Yoda statue if you want.
4
North Beach
Learn the history and culture of this neighborhood that is a favorite of locals and visitors alike.
5
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.
6
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.
7
Haight-Ashbury
Drive down the street made famous in the 1960's, and learn why the music and culture made resonated around the world.
8
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.
9
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.
10
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.
11
Mission District
See Mission Dolores, the Mission Murals, and location of what may be the best burritos in city.

Husband and I were initially thinking of just spending a few hours in S.F. before heading to Monterey. Looked at his website, smallcarbigtimetours and thought it looked just what we would want. Booked a 2 hr with Reed to hit the highlights. After reaching out to him (I contacted Reed directly at 4155295404), he sent me an amazing amount of info that was helpful in planning the rest of our day. He was so accommodating when I changed pick up and drop off locations and even offered to change our appt time to allow for us to eat before needing to get to our next thing! He asked what interested us and what we wanted him to focus on and it was PERFECT!

I really enjoyed my tour around San Francisco with Reed in his convertible Mini. Very convenient pick-up/drop-off from our hotel, Reed gives a very knowledgable talk about the city through his car audio system which I found very clear to hear and this certainly enhanced the experience. I have no hesitation in recommending this tour it is, in my opinion, far better than the usual tour bus ride. Do get in touch with Reed directly at 4155295404 or his website smallcarbigtimetours.

Had lots of comunication with Reed before we booked and after. He was great, very helpful, he made suggestions and supplied lots of information for me. we were traveling to Las Vegas with my Mum (73) and my Niece to celebrate her 21st. once I realised how close it was to San Francisco by air and after much discusion we decided to go to San Francisco for the day. I wanted them to get the most out of the day and I wanted a tour that would fit in with our other plans. I trawled through various sites looking at what was on offer, but nothing really fit into our schedual. by chance I came across Reeds website smallcarbigtimetours. and as they say the rest is history. we met Reed and his wonderful soft top mini at the meeting place we had arranged, he was prompt and very dapper. He took us all over the city, from Coit Tower to the Presidio, Nob Hill, palace of fine arts, through China Town and little Italy, the Golden Gate Bridge and down Lombard Street. Lots of other places as well, He told us lots of interesting facts about the places we visited. we saw the house from Mrs Doubtfire, which was on UK tv yesterday, been there, loved seeing the places we had visited again in the film. we only had a two hour tour, but Reed packed so much in, my only regret is that we didn't have time in our day to have a longer tour with Reed. we got dropped off at Pier 39 for our trip to Alcatraz. everything ran very smoothly, I can't recommend Reed enough. Just the 3 of us having a private tour was a real highlight in our holiday. next time Im in San Francisco I will be booking a longer tour. get in touch with Reed, his website smallcarbigtimetours, he gets back to you very quickly and always helpful. or contact him at 4155295404. He is a true professional and a gentleman.
