James- Master Class of a Guide”
We highly enjoyed our driver/tour guide, James. This gentleman was a “driving encyclopedia” of information- his recollection of dates, names; was phenomenal and entertaining. If you want a guide who is as deeply knowledgeable as he is charismatic and fun, ask for James."The only negative was the coach bus - rough ride- it needs a good set of shocks! I wrote in before the tour as some reviewers mentioned this! The tour company assured me that their buses were well maintained- not this one! 😞

10 Stars for Chad (and Harvey) ;)
My sister and I took a VW tour of San Francisco with our guide, Chad, and it was one of the highlights of our trip! We explored Haight-Ashbury, the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, Chinatown, Little Italy, the Painted Ladies, the iconic Full House setting, and more.The small-group experience was intimate, relaxed, and so much fun. Chad was fantastic—knowledgeable and entertaining, with funny stories and perfectly timed music to match the different areas we visited.And then there was Harvey, our VW bus! He added just the right amount of kitsch and personality to an already memorable experience.If 10 stars were an option, we’d give it 10! Highly recommend this tour for a fun and unique way to experience San Francisco.

Took a guided electric bike ride throughout the city with Jack. He was knowledgeable and entertaining. I highly recommend a guided tour as the city can be confusing, the traffic heavy, and the hills very very steep.

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!

Eli was our guide and he was fantastic. The bikes are very high end and powerful, very useful on the steep hills. Made stops at interesting locations and had awesome views approaching and crossing bridge. I would highly recommend and do it again.

Michael (tour guide) was the Filet Mignon - Unlimited Bikes the Ground Beef
Spent 5 days in San Fracisco and BY FAR the best part of our trip was our E-Bike tour with Michael! We had some issues with the bikes - some minor and some major. So, I would definitely recommend that you inspect your bike and the settings and make sure you do some practice runs up the street. Had to change my bike out 3 times before the tour started. We later found out that my daughter's bike would not go up steep inclines - just shut down. This was confirmed by our tour guide and he told us the light green bikes, which my daughter had, are not very powerful and have issues. So, DO NOT GET THE LIGHT GREEN BIKES! My daughter had to walk her bike up 3 or 4 steep hills and that was the worst. So, the bike rental company should really have to refund part of our payment. Regardless, Michael was amazing and took us all over and gave us all sorts of cool facts about the city. He even raced back and retrieved my daughter's fanny-pack that she left behind at a previous stop. I can't rave enough about Michael. Truly, his service and care and total attention to us to make sure we had a good time by far compensated for the crappy bike the bike rental shop gave my daughter.

Robert was amazing! We had a great time and felt like we weren’t just getting a tour but a hometown tour. We walked in and he knew everyone and they called him by name. It just made the whole experience so personal! I would pay double to do it again with him. Perfect amount of time and amount of food because I’m stuffed to the brim
