    Awesome driver and guide. Saw new parts of San Francisco that are hard to get to and you might miss on your own. Lots of walk around, and bathroom stops. Driver navigated Golden Gate Park driving through a 100,000 person festival so we could see the park.

    I took this bus tour as i had one more day in San Francisco and my sister couldn't host me that day. This was fantastic. There were 5 15-minute stops and then some drive by stops. We went to places like Lands End, the Golden Gate, Twin Peaks, a beautiful mission and the Palace of Fine Arts. Afterwards I took a great boat ride on the bay. Next place I go, I will look for another tour like this!

    We took the Grand City Tour in April, 2023. Saw lots of sights, including downtown, Golden Gate Bridge and Park, the Presidio, and more. Tour guide was knowledgeable and helpful. Tour was about 4 hours, about the right length for us.
