The best way to see the Golden Gate Bridge
Super friendly and helpful staff. My wife was a little anxious to ride across the Golden Gate Bridge but the store representative gave us all the info and tips we needed for an awesome day out.I’d suggest rent an e-bike for the day and ride across the bridge to Sausalito. Plenty of photo opportunities and a great way to see San Francisco from the other side of the bay.Sausalito is a nice place to visit with quiet streets and quaint shops.If you had enough of cycling you can even get a ferry back to Fishermans Wharf from there.

A great way to get to know the Golden Gate Bridge
You follow the route on the app and whenever you reach a point of interest the narrator will tell you about it. I like the narrator's voice and the way he talks keeps it interesting, especially for children. Plus, you can take this tour at any time during the day on which you booked it, so the time is flexible. You can also cause it and pick it up at a later time or a different spot.

Book this tour - it’s worth it.
This was a great decision. We saw a good portion of the city, the guide gave us some history about the city and the buildings, got our bearings on where everything was, crossed the Golden Gate Bridge, and enjoyed Don our tour guide. Our guide, Don, grew up in the area so he was very knowledgeable with some interesting facts and history about the city - plus he through in a pun or two. Thanks to our driver, Larry, you did an awesome job. I would recommend this tour for sight seeing.

San Francisco to Yellowstone and Las Vegas 7-Day Tour
Tan_K, Jun 2025
I want to give my review...
I want to give my review regarding my recent tour experience, which unfortunately fell short of expectations in several areas:1) Group Size and Time Management Our tour group comprised > 50 participants (Stated maximum 12 travelers here?!), and each restroom stop took approximately 10 minutes, causing significant delays to the itinerary.2) Language Expectation The tour was promoted as an English-speaking tour. However, there were inconsistencies in the language used, mostly conducted in Mandarin!3) Bus Seating Privileges I was unaware that there was an option to purchase seats in the first three rows of the bus. This option was not offered to us, and I would appreciate clarification on how such privileges were communicated or allocated.4) Bus Facilities and Communication The bus had only one exit, which made boarding and alighting for such big groups very inefficient. Additionally, the tour guide's audio announcements were difficult to hear, leading to confusion among participants.5) Optional Tours Notification We were only informed about optional tours on the second day of the trip. Unfortunately, by that time, many participants, including my family, did not have sufficient cash on hand to join.6) Day 3 Dinner Arrangement The dinner on the third day was poorly organised. Participants who did not opt for the Chinese set dinner were left to find their meals, with only a nearby supermarket available. My family had to eat on a cold, windy public bench outside the store, which was far from ideal.7) Room Allocation Issue We booked accommodation for three guests, but on Day 3, we were assigned a room that could only accommodate two people. The group were split into 2 accommodation areas, hence we reached our hotel about 10 pm due to extra waiting.8) However, I understand that most of the issues mentioned above may be partly due to the company’s arrangements. I would like to express my appreciation to our tour guide, Mr. Charles, who remained patient and consistently did his best to serve the big group throughout the trip. The destinations and scenery were truly fantastic.

Alcatraz visit
This was our first time we got electronic tickets and they seem to very much know how to get you onto the ferry very organized and explain things well. The people were pleasant. It was a great experience. Definitely glad we visited this time and I was shocked today to hear that President Trump wants to reopen Alcatraz. That would definitely be something, but I don’t see how that’s possible. Wish we would’ve went to the bookstore to see the inmate that wrote a book of his experience, but there just wasn’t enough time for us.

The two wineries we visited were great. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Our only criticism would be that the first, smaller winery we visited, the gentleman showing us the wines was a little arrogant and we didn't feel completely at easy. Overall the trip was great.

Delightful and the views are perfect.
We did the 60 minute trip to the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. A delightful experience. The views of the bridge are absolute impressive from the boat. The view of Alcatraz is an eye opener. The ride was stable. Plenty of room on the boat. You can stay inside or go outside to get the real feel of the breeze, fresh air and the sun. The recorded narration is informative. The view of San Francisco is perfect and exposes the whole of the city to you. I highly recommend this quick trip. Easy on and off and doesn’t take up a lot of time.

Nice easy way to see SF quickly
I loved the Hop on/off option. I did a full loop on my first one and only got off at Golden Gate Bridge for that loop. Then based I wanted to do, I got off at various stop. Using this bus to stop at the museums is not good use of the day pass. The evening tour was pretty cool with an opportunity to get a beautiful picture of SF from Treasure island across the bay, plus to get closer to some places not seen on the day tour such as the Nob Hill, Fairmont Hotel etc…Bring a jacket though as it gets chilly. The staff were very nice and tour recording was very informative . Good app too to use off the bus .
