Overall rating

4.3 / 5

based on 92 reviews

Rain and other commitments cut into my time doing this, but it was an excellent device to do a self tour and see buildings I otherwise would not have noted. The system did lock up a couple of times (no reason why - but I figured how to get around it), and otherwise it was a fun walk. Voice clear & concise.

I really enjoyed the tour. About an hours walk. We go up some of the hills so be ready for that. The tour guide Jamie was cool. Really got into the details and was overall a great tour guide. Maybe next time I’ll do the extended tour.

It was nice no food but the siting was smoothies needs food and music a lil plain it’s more like $20 trip but if u drunk everything look good lol

The staff was friendly and made it fun! San Francisco is beautiful at night, you won't be disappointed.

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and learned quite a bit about the history of SF.
