Mike_R, Sep 2026
Great trip and guide
We had a great time seeing the beauty of the California coast. Fred, our guide, was ready and waiting for us when we got to our hotel lobby. He apologized for being a bit early and even offered to stop right away for us to get morning coffee. We declined, but our first break was at a wonderful bakery in Pacifica. Along the drive, he offered history and insights on the the towns we passed through as well as the agriculture and flora. The views of Half Moon Bay, Carmel-by- the-Sea, and Big Sur were stunning. Would highly recommend this great trip, and Fred.

If your looking for the PERFECT GUIDE, ask for Marciano!!!
Marciano was beyond five stars — truly a 10/10! From the beginning, he felt less like our tour guide and more like part of the family. He laughed with us, joined our conversations, took amazing photos, shared great stories and movie trivia, and took us to beautiful places we didn't even know we needed to see.Most importantly, he was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating, especially while traveling with our elderly parents. He made our entire Carmel, Monterey, and Big Sur experience easy, comfortable, and unforgettable. His knowledge, generosity, and genuine kindness are unmatched. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Marciano!

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!

We had breakfast at the café near the bridge. It was a great place for the view. We did park a little bit away from the café since it was hard to find parking. You just have to walk uphill a little bit, the café was a bit crowded that day so you do have to have time. There is a long way to get a table and his first come first serve,

Amazing tour experience with Josh and Harvey
Our experience exploring San Francisco was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to our amazing tour guide, Josh! From the moment we stepped into a charming 150-year-old Volkswagen van named Harvey, we knew we were in for something special. Josh was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to be around. He took us to all the must-see spots around downtown, making sure we didn’t miss a single highlight. What really stood out was how relaxed and unhurried the entire tour felt—we never felt rushed and were able to truly soak in the beauty and history of the city. He went above and beyond by offering snacks and drinks throughout the ride, and even took photos for us so we could fully enjoy the moment without worrying about capturing it ourselves. This tour was worth every penny and more. If you’re looking for a unique, comfortable, and memorable way to experience San Francisco, I can’t recommend Josh and his vintage van Harvey enough!

A must tour when visiting the Bay
This tour was amazing and Dave was an amazing tour guide! It wasn't easy considering there was Formula One traffic and crowd that day and Dave made sure we still see a lot of the iconic city views. And the vintage VW 1973 was a delight to ride around the city. The Haight-Ashbury stop was the main highlight and didn't disappoint us. Driving down crooked Lombard Street was a treat! Dave went above and beyond what we were hoping for and even changed our drop-off location so we could catch a great dinner at Fisherman's Wharf! This tour is a must when visiting the bay!

It was a wonderful experience. We traveled many miles with Roberto and Lorenzo, and they were effortless. Both guides were very friendly, helpful, always punctual, and professional. The day at Antylope Canyon and Bryce Canyon was spectacular and very exciting. Although the bus journeys are very long, it's worth it; after all, you cross four states! ✌🏻 Recommended!

Eric‘s VIP tours was one of our favorite parts of our trip to San Francisco. We went on the SF ultimate combo tour. We had so much fun with Eric! He was so knowledgeable about the city and showed us its beauty. He was flexible with time , and at no time did we fill rushed when making stops to see the sites. We were so impressed with Eric. He truly has a talent for what he does. We highly recommend exploring the city of San Francisco with Eric‘s VIP tours. It’s easy to tell he has a heart for the city and for those who want to see all Th City By The Bay has to offer.
