Don't miss this well-worth-it tour - We have visited San Francisco before, but never did we have such a comprehensive tour as this one, seeing several wonderful neighborhoods. Paul is a native San Franciscan and a professional actor, very articulate and knowledgeable. A wonderful two-hour drive through the city, well worth the cost!

Great guide - Had an excellent trip with San Francisco native Paul. We were very lucky that it was just my wife and I for the tour. Paul showed us all of the sites and as a native he had a huge depth of knowledge and a passion for his city. I would highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic tour - What a fantastic tour Paul lined up for myself and my friends. This wasn't my first trip to SF (unlike the others) but even I saw bits of SF that I had never been to before as we covered the city with a brief visit to Sausalito. Definitely a company/tour to recommend!

Great tour!! - Tour was amazing! Paul went above and beyond, and you can tell he has true passion for the area. Born and raised in the area he not only gave us the normal info you might find on another tour, but tons of hidden gems and info you couldn't get from any one else. Book with Paul, you've have zero regrets!!!

Great experience - We are so glad that we took a trip with San Francisco Expeditions on our first day in San Francisco. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip, and Paul’s knowledge of the city really helped us to find out about places that we would never have discovered on our own. We then planned several trips during the week to places Paul had pointed out and recommended. We were able to get so much more out of our holiday as a result. We highly recommend that visitors to San Francisco take a trip with San Francisco expeditions - ideally on their first day. Sent from Outlook for iOS
