Private Half Day Tour of San Francisco with a Cable Car Ride

Overview

On this private half-day tour, you will see first-hand San Francisco’s colourful mix of quaint buildings and modern architecture in a stunning ocean-facing city.

You will explore this fascinating urban landscape, set on the northern tip of a peninsula, shaped by glaciers, earthquakes and the Pacific’s rolling waves. Set on San Francisco's picturesque steep slopes, and enjoy a stunning skyline across streets crisscrossed by streetcars, yellow taxis and jogging trails.

Enjoy a historic cable car ride from one part of the city, over Nob Hill to the waterfront. At beautiful North Beach, known colloquially as Little Italy, soak up the ambience of the city’s lively historic Italian-American community.

Lastly, Fisherman’s Wharf, lined with seafood cafes, is home to basking sea lions, jugglers and mime artists and enjoys striking views across the Golden Gate Bridge, the infamous island prison on the sea, Alcatraz, and Angel Island.

Tour guide was not familiar enough with sights to lead tour. Often lead us in the wrong direction. This event cost over $400. It’s worth $25. Would not recommend this event.

Hi Grace, Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with Kathy didn't live up to your expectations. Kathy is one of our best-rated guides due to her kindness and knowledge, but we understand from her that she had to adapt the itinerary on the day of the tour given some changes in the cable car schedule, and that she had trouble with her Lyft App, which may have caused another impression at times. Still, she's assured that everything contemplated on the tour's itinerary was covered, so we would love to speak to you and understand your experience in greater detail. We hope to have the chance to welcome you in other cities, so that we can compensate for this opportunity. All our best, Travel Curious Team

We highly recommend this tour and Roberto. If you don't know the city, San Francisco can wear you out quickly with the hills. Roberto knew all the ins and out, the secret turns, the beautiful alley ways, the best places to get the perfect family photos, the right cable car line to take, and all the colorful stories behind its history and present day. Plus he has a cool vibe. We would recommend this for the pickiest travel -young, old, family, individual. He is such a find....Four Seasons type level.

The tour was fascinating. Our tour guide, Clemencia was amazing. We loved all of it. The walk through the city, the ride in the cable car the walk on Fisherman's Warf and everything in between. I 100% recommend this tour.
