Our driver and tour guide is informative and friendly. The tour took 4 hours with 4 stops (the stop is short for 10-15 minutes only)

Thanks for your review. Our San Francisco city tour is described as an overview, making stops at four or five key locations that visitors really enjoy. This seems to work out best for our guests who typically do an Alcatraz Prison tour in the afternoon. Please contact our guest services team if you have any further questions or comments.

Booked this though our travel agent. Pickup and dropoff point short walk from our hotel. Coach with multiple stops around the city for a couple of hours. Unfortunately we didnt see much of Golden Gate Bridge due to fog, but no-one can help the weather. Stopped at many places for information and photos. Friendly helpful guide. Well worth it

Tour guide Michelle was very knowledgeable but has no personality. She was reluctant to take questions and used no humor or personal anecdotes.
