We visited here From Atlanta flew in to LA for 2 days and drove the 101 Scenic Highway up to San Fran. We took a tour with the San Francisco Tour Company black van with Brian, our tour guide and owner, (pre-booked by our travel agent). All the places we visited and information provided were beyond your expectations. We gained a whole new perspective of San Fran and fell in love with it. Our tour was absolutely perfect, totally educational and an experience of a lifetime! We will definitely be back!! Thank you so much Brian for being so personable, accommodating and just really chill in showing us around the city! This review was initially posted on September 14 but was posted under the wrong tour company. I just recognize this and re-posted it here where it originally belonged. ❤️

We arribed to several places but we just stopped there in a few of them. The guide never say a word in spanish (even "Hola"), previously i told him that our englisht wasn't good. All tour he was talking with the other 3 member of tour . He wasn't very polite with us. Just helped with a picture during all the tour. The apperitives were "Nachos" and a few of almonds, nothing else... The payment was high for that experience of puntual 4 hours. The weather was awful that day....
