Great trip and tour. Bundle up for the wind.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Alcatraz. The audio tour was great. All of the employees were friendly. I can't wait to see more improvements on the island. I do think it was excessive to have to show our tickets three times before boarding.

Great option for Alcatraz et al
After not taking the advice to book Alcatraz early, we found this as the only available option for a same-day booking. The prices were higher, but Jen was awesome and we had a wonderful day making memories. The tour bus was fun and we will definitely be back again.

Great tour. Great visuals. Good explanation of the transgender district of SF
JJ is greatly talented at this tour. They made us feel welcome and safe. This is a challenging tour in a very smelly and grimy part of the city. They have an excellent presentation spiral notebook with a great deal of visuals to present. This added a lot to the tour. My partner really liked this and hopes JJ will write their own history book based on this presentation. We would buy it.

Silicon Valley Private Tour from San Francisco

Awesome tour of Silicon Valley from SF.
Fred was our tour guide for the day from Dingo Tours for this Silicon Valley half day trip from SF. Fred was awesome, full of knowledge about Silicon Valley companies and their history and a very happy and accomodating person. He was also a Brazilian soccer fan, which added to the fun aspect, as we were traveling from Sydney Australia to watch the WC matches.Fred gave us a quick outline of the day. First stop was the Meta office, Menlo Park. Interestingly, it was the same office which Sun Microsystems had previously occupied. Being an ex-Sun employee, I was very nostalgic. Fred gave us a quick drive around the campus and then parked to take a picture of us in front of the Meta logo! Funny part was, behind the Meta logo was the old Sun logo, which was such a nice coincidence!The next stop was Stanford University. It was a zip code of its own. Fred gave us some tips on what to see in the short time. We went to see the church, the gift shop and the tower which house a lot of Hoover memorabilia. The view from the top was brilliant, you could capture the width of the entire Stanford campus. The ground floor was a museum. The entry to top floor was ticketed at USD8 per person. Was a good experience.Then next 2 stops were Google office, Mountain View and Apple office, Cupertino. The Google office was just an office with the ground floor having a Google store. After some quick pictures with Google sign boards, we went to Apple which was our final destination. That was a rare experience, getting into Apple Store and visitor’s centre. Shows how Apple can market themselves to blow the socks off its competitors. The Apple visitors centre had a model of the entire campus including office which was built in the shape of a space station. They have interactive iPads which gives a complete immersive experience of each building when you look at the actual model and tap the same building on the iPad. It also had a store and cafe with clean toilets. And if you and T up to the second floor, you would see the actual office building. Great experience for professional nerds who always wanted to be part of Apple, even if from the outside.Overall the tour was a good experience and would def recommend this tour, specially with Fred who was amazing throughout!

Great San Francisco in a Day Tour
This was a great tour. We did Alcatraz in the morning and San Francisco in the afternoon. At Alcatraz we were able to meet a former inmate, now author of his experiences at Alcatraz. He signed his book and we got a photo! A rare and exciting experience! San Francisco was brought to life for us by our fantastic tour guide, Buddy. I don't believe there is an area we didn't stop at or at least drive by. His vast knowledge of all things San Francisco was incredible! We learned so much as well. We were so glad we booked this tour and did not try to sightsee on our own as we would have missed so much. Highly recommend!!
