Great tour! Pep knows so many things about so many topics and took us to lots of places we never would have gone to on our own, including some of the most exciting tech sites in the bay area! I strongly recommend this tour.

Not having a car this tour provided us with an opportunity to visit Silicon Valley and see the main sites. We enjoyed having a guide to give us background and history. Our guide was ok and we were disappointed that she kept telling us she had a headache and due to that had organized an additional person to be the driver who was in a hurry to return to the city. For the high price of the tour this was not really an acceptable standard..

Sorry you feel that way. Silicon Valley tours are much more challenging than other tours. It's very difficult to find guides to cover the tours. I have a startup and understand the SV ecosystem. Not many guides do or are interested in doing this tour. The family paid for a regular tour where you have a driver/guide. We had a driver and a guide for a family of 3 which is the service we provide VIP clients. They actually got a bargain. I had a headache and decided to have a driver as opposed to rescheduling or canceling the tour. Additionally, this was a 5 hour tour from 10:00 a.m to 3:00 p.m. We picked them up at 10:00 a.m and dropped them off at 3:00 p.m since the driver had a 3:30 p.m appointment. The Computer History Museum visit takes an hour. They spent 30 minutes having lunch which cut into their museum time. 98% of the people have a late lunch instead. I had emailed them the itinerary the day before. They had enough time to plan their time efficiently if they wanted to. If possible, I give clients an opportunity to extend the tour when I drive. She also gave us a $30 cash tip. Thanks for the feedback. We will do better next time.
