The tour was wonderful from start to finish and definitely value for money. I did this as a solo traveler on my first day in San Francisco and I highly recommend it. Any questions that I had prior to the tour were dealt with promptly by Tim by email before I left Australia. On the morning of the tour I was picked up from my hotel on time and taken to the Ferry Building which was worth seeing. Myself and the tour members were dropped off for the Alcatraz trip and met again later in the day for the rest of the full day tour. Tony, our guide was surberb. He went out of his way to show us all the main sights in San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge from every angle. This part of the tour was for five hours and it was a real treat. I felt that I had really experienced San Francisco in a day.

We only had one whole day in SF and this tour ticked all the boxes within my time frame. The drivers were very informative and helpful. Victor was a gem of knowledge. Thoughly recommended. Dave Parr
