San Francisco Whale Watching Cruise from Fisherman’s Wharf
flowmaster00, Sep 2026
Wonderful
If you get sea sick, this will make you sick… I was sick most of the time on the water but we did get to see some whales so that in my opinion is a once in a lifetime experience! The tour guide was wonderful and the captain was great as well

Outdoor Escape Room in San Francisco – Castro
allisonsM2548TL, Sep 2026
Escape the City is an excellent way to explore the neighborhood
We loved the Escape the City boxes. We just did the Castro box and previously did the other San Francisco box a few years earlier. We live just outside the city and this was a fun activity for a few hours. It made us notice things that we previously never did- and later when visiting the area we were reminded of our experience.The clues were hard but clever- but the optional hints made it easier. It’s my only escape room experience, but my kids found it familiar to other escape rooms.$50 seemed like a lot at first for the box. But it’s such a great deal- it was great entertainment for our family of four for several hours. More affordable than a traditional escape room and much nicer to be outside and at your own pace.I liked the Castro neighborhood better than SOMA but both were good. But be warned- it is the Castro- you may see some nudity.When we travel next we might try a box in a new city. We’ve gotten gifts of boxes for friends in their cities and recommended it to others.

Such a fun and memorable day trip! The Redwood Forest Steam Train was a unique experience, and the beautiful redwood scenery was incredible. We also loved spending time in Santa Cruz and enjoying the coast.Our guide Jason was excellent — very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He kept everything organized, shared interesting information throughout the trip, and gave us plenty of time to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed.A wonderful way to experience the redwoods and Santa Cruz in one day. Highly recommend this tour and Jason! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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 Experience
The tour was through Tower Tours and our guide was Patrick. Very personable and friendly guide. He gave little tidbits of information related to the different places our small group was from as well as a ton of information about the red woods, Muir Woods, SF and some surrounding cities. It was great and Muir Woods was majestic

An amazing, captivating adventure for the whole family!
Our Escapely experience in the Castro was amazing! We have a 3 month old baby and it was the ideal adventure to take him on! We went with my in-laws, our best friends and their baby and everyone had a blast. The clues were engaging, challenging, fun, and kept us completely captivated and enthralled throughout. We loved the difficulty level and were perfectly challenged every step of the way. I liked how diverse the clues were and how they all connected. We also loved the other Escapely SF game and gifted one to our friends in DC. I’ve done Escape rooms around the world and Escapely is truly one of the best I’ve ever experienced!

Novel transportation with insightful tour guide
Brian was a fabulous tour guide and driver. It was a cool and windy night and he made sure we had blankets to snuggle under. The Tuk Tuk is great fun because it’s so colorful and festive and pedestrians smile, point and wave as we drove by. He took us to all the usual sightseeing highlights, but what made this trip extra special was Brian’s great stories and insights. We’ve been on several sightseeing tours of San Francisco, but his insights into the history and politics of the city made the time fly. He’s led an interesting life and his intellect makes him a very interesting conversationalist about the successes and challenges of the city.

The Mission: Carlos Santana attended Mission High, the oldest public high school in SF in 9th grade just before he started touring. Great food and pubs, nothing but indy, including the home made pasta shop with the sandwich board out front that proclaims: We have more kinds of pasta than Trump has felony convictions!
