Excellent crew and a humpback breach!
In spite of a cloudy day, we saw several humpbacks, porpoises, a sea lion and lots of sea birds, but the highlight was seeing an adult humpback whale fully breach-spectacular! Ryan was an excellent naturalist-very friendly and knowledgable. The crew seemed to be concerned that the passengers really enjoyed the day. Would definitely use again.

Historic, informative and great views
The Presidio area was not what I expected, which made the information given very interesting, especially if you like history. Julie was a great guide and well informed. It ended up being just my daughter and I so, it was like a private tour. We walked the whole area, which fyi, was a previous military fort. That was one of the parts I didn't know. We even learned about Carl the Fog. There are panoramic views of the bay, parks and the Golden Gate Bridge when the fog cooperates. It was a great afternoon.

Mac made the whole experience enjoyable. Highly recommended! If for nothing else, great stories and a way to get to know this little part of the city's history. The old photos of the city and the ghost detectors really added to the experience and we got to use the dowsing rods to talk to a spirit! Mac is the real deal, no B.S. You will love this tour!

San Francisco Gregangelo Museum – Immersive Interior Art Tour

10/10 Would Recommend
We did the "Down the Rabbit Hole" tour and met the with astrologer. It was an absolutely perfect evening! It was just our group at the museum, so we had the place to ourselves. Our tour guide was incredible-- by the end it felt like she was our friend, we'd shared so many stories and experiences. The museum itself is incredible-- so much attention to detail, each room is magnificent and has it's own ambiance. It's a little pricey, but I felt it was totally worth it. I highly recommend, and I would absolutely go again and enjoy a different tour.

First class tour. Saw whales, pelicans, porpoises and a sealion. Good guide. Only criticism is that we were told to be there for 8.30am, so we were hanging around with nothing to do for half an hour.

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

We had an excellent food tour with Dale who was very knowledgeable, funny, and a great guide! The tour itself was a great mix of tasty food, food history, picturesque views, and general San Francisco history as well. We've done several food tours in the past this was one of the best in terms of spacing the food stops out enough that you had enough time to enjoy what you were eating while also having sufficient time between stops to digest each tasty morsel. This tour is a great way to get an intro to San Francisco and its food scene. Highly recommend!

Great Cooking Class
This cooking class was a lot of fun! Eddie is a fantastic instructor and his feedback on each of our techniques was very positive. It made the entire event stress free. Each person made their own dumplings from scratch and then we had a dinner featuring our results. I would recommend this class to anyone who loves learning how to cook and/or eat!

Great way to see lots of exhibits and check out the roof!
Visited with my family because we wanted to get out of the rain. Compared to the museums I have been to, it was reasonably priced (we are out of Boston). We loved the walk up to see the various levels of the rainforest and the butterflies at the top! We also loved seeing all of the aquarium exhibits- much more than what I read in the description.
