Book this tour
For this guided tour, you get more than you pay for. Talk about one of the best guided tours I’ve ever been on, this was an excellent experience. We toured the city of San Francisco with Weyland from Dylan Tours and he was very knowledgeable of the city history and culture. I learned so much in 90 minutes. The ride in the van was very comfortable and the van seated about 7 guests. We also stopped along the way for a restroom break. Book this tour if you want an excellent guide that will provide a safe and enjoyable experience.

Great e-bike San Francisco tour
An incredible way to experience the best of the San Francisco Bay Area! Our bike tour gave us the perfect mix of scenic nature, beautiful historic neighborhoods, vibrant parks, and the unforgettable thrill of riding right across the Golden Gate Bridge. Spotting Wildlife: The absolute highlight of our ride was getting to see whales out in the water—such an extraordinary and unexpected bonus! A World-Class Guide: A huge thank you to our guide, Eli, who made the entire tour seamless, informative, and so much fun. If you want a thrilling, front-row seat to San Francisco’s most iconic sights, this tour is an absolute must-do!

Muir woods/Alcatraz tour
Me and my husband had a wonderful experience with the tour that was booked with Cool San Francisco. We were picked up at the arranged time, taken to the golden gate bridge where we had 10/15mins for photo opportunity, thank driven to Muir woods stayed for an 1 1/2 hours. Muir woods was not too busy at that time of the morning but when we left it had started to get busy. We than drove to Sausalito and spent an hour around the marina. There was a farmers market and lots of quaint little shops definitely worth visiting. We were than dropped off at Pier 33 with ample time. Given our Alcatraz tickets. We waited for the ferry. Alcatraz is definitely a must. Very eerier and sad to see how the prisoners had lived. What they must have endured. The tour was well organised and our guide Buddy was very knowledgeable in all areas and definitely kept us entertained Have booked a few tours with Cool San Francisco now. Always a good experience.

The Walt Disney Family Museum Admission Ticket in San Francisco
532stephena, Aug 2026
If you want to experience everything Disney, this is the place to go.
If you are as interested in Walt Disney and his story from childhood to the current day, do not miss this museum. It was probably the most bang for our buck of the many things that we did in San Francisco on our nine trip there. I was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information, displays, and memorabilia that was present. I could have spent all day reading about Walt, his family, the parks, and the various enterprises and endeavors that he envisioned. See this museum!

Just looking outside is not enough. Going through the house is enlightening and impressive. I’ve been here so many times times and it was my first to see the inside. I recommend it to everyone. It will bring you back to the glory days of those days. George is full of enthusiasm
