We had a wonderful time with Brian and another couple from Kentucky. It was a wonderful way to see a lot of the city in a half day experience. I particularly liked how are guide showed us informational clips on his laptop before the stops. I love Coit Tower and the beautiful grounds surrounding it. The beauty of the architecture throughout SF is exceptional.

Best Guide We Have Ever Had

Our excellent guide Brian has a lot of experience leading National Geographic tours around the country and world so made everyone aspect of the tour great! He is from San Francisco and obviously loves and knows the city well . Each stop and were well planned and he offered local snacks. He shared his personal and customer experience and gave tips on what to see and popular dining spots. He showed us relevant historical and more current photos on his laptop to provide additional detailed information. Going in a van with just our group of five was perfect!

Very enjoyable tour of much of San Francisco's highlights. Having not been here before this was a great way to see and get around S.F. Including a map of some type so we could have a better understood how each area we visited was in relationship to others would have been beneficial.
