Vantigo San Francisco City Tour

Overview

Looking for an authentic San Francisco experience? Trade the tour bus for a vintage Volkswagen van that easily navigates the city’s less-traveled lanes. Vantigo’s San Francisco City Tour takes you through 14 famed districts, complete with views of Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and several other storied landmarks. Along the way, we will stop and take photos while we share tales of earthquakes that shaped the landscape, industrial shifts from the 1849 Gold Rush to the rise of Silicon Valley, 1960s counterculture, and surprising insights that only a local would know.

Whether this is your first San Francisco visit or you’ve lived here for years, you’ll see the city from a new perspective. Book today. Then, sit back and enjoy the ride!

Tremendus package of San Franciso. The beautiful mix of great views and interesting stories. Also, very good music during the whole trip.

We had an excellent morning with Chad and Harvey. Great knowledge and stories delivered with passion and wit and a fun experience getting up the hills. We went to all the best known sights and it was ideal on our first day in SF to orient ourselves and get some great tips. Strongly recommended!

What a fantastic experience this was. Our guide Chad was excellent and made the tour so good with his deep knowledge of the city and friendly approach. You see the city from a great perspective in the well maintained and beautiful VW van and we also got to see some spots that are off the normal tourist route with spectacular views. I highly recommend that you book this tour if you are ever visiting San Francisco.
