Wonderful ride across the Golden Gate Bridge with friendly drivers that are very helpful and provided recommendations on different venues

Excellent way to see and orientate with views of San Francisco, and opportunith to access Golden Gate Bridge.

Standard tour of major sights, with the highlight of the Golden Gate, no waiting line. Best for the first acquaintance with the city. Dress warm, wind can be chilly.

Great way to learn about San Francisco. Riding at the top of the bus is the way to go- just be prepared for high winds as you go across Golden Gate Bridge.

This was a convenient way to see and get around the city. I'd never done this type of tour before so I didn't know what to expect. I was confused about where to catch the bus from Pier 27 which is where the Virgin Voyages cruise let us off. I was told to walk down to the ferris wheel to catch it despite there being a bus sitting at pier 27. I was told that there weren't enough people for him to leave and I wasn't offered the option of boarding and waiting for more people. So I began walking and saw several big busses drive by me along the way. I eventually just stopped at pier 39 to hang out for a bit, as the ferris wheel that I was told to catch was further down the road. While there I noticed a Big Bus stand selling tickets, so I checked the app and saw that I could catch the bus from Pier 39. The app showed an image with a large red arrow of exactly where to wait, which was extremely helpful because the stops are not marked. I boarded the bus but wasn't given headphones nor told to grab a pair. Once I was seated I noticed others with headphones so I asked where'd they'd gotten them and I was told that they were in a bin on the main level and that I'd definitely need them or the ride. So be sure to look for the headphones before finding your seat. The ride itself was fine, but I'd suggest wearing sunglasses, a hat or hood with strings, or a scarf wrapped tightly over your head if you plan on sitting up top. The wind made seeing or hearing anything difficult.

Very good. Riding on top going over the GG bridge is the best.

Easy to rooming arround and experience to see golden gate . I recommend for those first time like me to use hip hop bus❤️❤️👍👏

Amazing way to exsplore SF in a quick timesaving way!My main goal was the Golden Gate Bridge n xtra bonus all the pretty houses.This is must do visiting this cute charming city🫶🏽🫶🏽

Fabulous guest day out in San Fran with Big Bus Tour

Outstanding experience, loved how you can hop off and walk about the the different parts of the city and hop back on and continue your day.

I had the one day Hop-On Hop-Off pass through my Go City All-Inclusive pass that was extended for a 2nd day through September. I showed my Go City pass to the bus driver at one of the stops, and he provided a paper ticket that gave me the two days.When you board, there are ear plug sets. Get the ear plug set, since you will need them to hear the stops called out. There are two jacks for each set of seats and a running narration with fun information about the city and the stops. You can sit inside or upstairs in the open air area.I used the bus at the end of July in the mornings starting around 10:15 - 11:00 am at bus stop 2, Columbus/Ghirardelli Square which is in front of the Hotel Caza across from Marriott Fisherman's Wharf. It is a 6 minute walk to Ghirardelli Square.I always found a seat, and the bus was about 10 - 20 minutes after the time the app said it would be. I recommend you go to the website ahead of time and have the list of stops and the attractions near each and plan ahead. Bring your coat if you plan to get off at the Golden Gate stops 11 and 12. It is super windy and chilly.I took the bus to the stop 3 North Beach / Chinatown which lets you off at North Beach and stop 5 Ferry Building which lets you off across the street. I also did the entire loop getting off at stop 11 South Vista Point / Golden Gate Bridge - get off there for the Golden Gate Visitor Center, a view of the bridge, and information about the bridge up the ramp, and a cafe. Bathrooms are in the parking lot. Hold onto your hat as your cross the bridge or it will get blown off when you ride the bus.IMPORTANT NOTE: ** Stop 11 South Vista Point / Golden Gate Bridge lists Botanical Gardens. It is about 3.2 miles or over 1 hour, 15 minutes by walking. **Stop 12 North Vista Point / Golden Gate Bridge gives you a panoramic view of San Francisco.The last stop is stop 17 Pier 39 with the sea lions, Aquarium of the Bay, Boudin sourdough bakery, and restaurants. A short walk away: - Alcatraz ferry at Pier 33 - Red and White Boat tours at Pier 43 - USS Pampanito submarine is docked at Pier 45

Our tour bus driver Kerwin was awesome! Not only was he an excellent driver, but such an enthusiastic and funny tour guide. He made the whole experience so enjoyable! Thank you Kerwin!

The audio part was very good. Earphones were supplied and the audio was very clear. The narration was very informative and you could hop on or off as you pleased. It was a great way to introduce us to the city.

It’s a great way to see a lot of San Francisco in a short amount of time. We used it as a sight seeing trip and didn’t get off the bus until we arrived at the stop we got on the bus at. It took about two hours or so to do that.

Was a very pleasant experience Friendly staff, excellent drivers / guides Buses keep coming regularly at intervals assured Well maintained buses

Bus was convenient and came by often. Get headphones when you enter the bus (no one told us so we didn't have audio until the way back). A little pricey for a prerecorded tour. Also dress warm for the bridge!
