McKinnon2, Sep 2026
Well organised, friendly, good value double up tour.
We had a great day that was guided by Laura. She was very personable and pointed out so many places of interest. She added in lots of anecdotes. We were in a small open air van and we really enjoyed that aspect of the tour. Hop on hop off tours are too onerous for me as I have some mobility issues. We did stop and get out at the Golden Gate Bridge and the Palace of fine arts. Lovely short stops! The pick up arrangements were clear and we were let out at the ferry landing for the Alcatraz ferry. Not everyone did that part of the tour but we were glad we did. Once at Alcatraz you get an audio set and it’s great. An added bonus for me was that a little trolley was available for anyone with mobility issues to take me up to the top to start the cell tour. It’s a steep climb.

FUN! Definitely recommend!
This was such a fun way to see the different neighborhoods and sites in the city. The gps guide is great with directions and gives some fun history of the area you are at. I would definitely recommend this fun activity if you have never visited San Francisco! We are from small town Kansas, and we had no trouble navigating the city with the gps guide! It was a cloudy morning and I will say that I needed warmer clothes for this tour!

We didn’t want to do the typical hot-spot tour. We love architecture and seeing neighborhoods and that’s exactly what she showed us, along with some tourist attractions she thought we would like.She was knowledgeable about history and having been a native of the area, she could speak about how things have changed for the communities.

Super recommend!!!
I’ve already visited so many countries and places, but I’ve never had an experience quite like this before. Such an incredibly cool experience! It was really interesting, and I loved that you can choose an audio guide in your native language (Ukrainian), stop wherever you want, and it is so easy to navigate. Next time I visit, I’ll definitely do it again different route again!!!

Eric is the best tour guide ever!
What a wonderful amazing experience. We had great weather, touring with best friends for my and another friend’s birthday. The best part was our tour guide, driver Eric. He has the talent to be a tour guide: warm, funny, smart, knowledgeable. He did little things to make us feel special: memorizing our names, giving us treats especially to celebrate our birthdays. I have been on tours all over the world, but no one can ever match Eric.I definitely will recommend him to anyone who wants a small group tour. And an amazing day.Thank you Eric for making us feel special in so many ways.God bless.

San Francisco to Yosemite One-Way Transfer
O2109UVamandam, Jun 2026
Well-run tour
The tour was really well organised. Everything ran on time, we stopped at all the right attractions, and there was plenty of time to explore and take photos without feeling rushed. Communication from the team was also excellent, with clear and timely WhatsApp updates that made everything smooth and stress-free.Andy our tour guide made the whole experience even better. He was funny, friendly, and really helpful, taking everyone’s photos and going the extra mile to get the perfect angles (even lying on his back in front of El Capitan for the shot), sharing interesting facts about the giant sequoias. He even sang to wake us up at the dinner spot!A great, well-run tour made even more memorable thanks to Andy’s energy and humour

Enjoyed the night tour. They demonstrated opening and closing jail cell doors. Audio tour is cool, but suggest letting most people go ahead so not all trying to crowd around the same area.

A fantastic day
Visiting Yosemite was something really special, but what made the experience even more unique was our guide: Andy. With his skill and especially his sympathy, he accompanied us to discover an incredible place making us feel at ease. It was not just a visit, but an experience lived with enthusiasm, interesting stories and a lot of passion. Andy was able to involve us all, turning a day in Yosemite into a precious memory that we will carry with us. Thank you so much for making everything so natural and fun.

Amazing customer service even when plans changed
We came to San Francisco with my 10-year-old niece and were really excited to take a city tour. We found Sammy’s SF Fun Tricks on Cool San Francisco and booked our tour the day before.Unfortunately, we got sick and couldn’t make it. We reached out to both Cool San Francisco and Sammy, and they were incredibly understanding and helpful. The whole process was smooth, and we were able to get a refund without any issues.Even though we didn’t get to take the tour, Sammy’s kindness, professionalism, and great customer service really stood out. Thank you so much, Sammy! We truly appreciate it and would definitely book again on our next visit to SF.
