Great tour, very informative driver. Saw a lot of San Fransisco in the time. Alcatraz a must to see, absolutely awesome. Totally recommend this tour
What's not to like? This is the way to see San Fran stress-free. I was apprehensive about the length of the bus ride, but the driver was full of fun facts that it flew by. He really kept us entertained. I recommend this trip.
