SAN FRANCISCO SHUTTLE TOURS
This is the #1 tour of San Francisco! Mostly because it uses a Separate Tour Guide from driver, but also because they make the most stops than any other comparable tour. They make 9 off-the-shuttle stops, plus they include a Ferry/Bay Cruise as part of the tour that goes right by Alcatraz Island. This is the only tour that uses the great ferry system that they use that goes to and from the famous Ferry Building. We recommend this tour highly. Tour highlights include: Ferry Building, Guided Walk through Chinatown, Lombard Street (downhill walk), Nob Hill, Grace Cathedral (go-inside!), Alamo Square Park (picture stop), Japanese Tea Garden, De Young Museum Tower, Palace of Fine Arts, The Golden Gate Bridge, Sausalito, 25-minute Ferry Bay Cruise to finish off the tour.



THE WINE COUNTRY TOUR SHUTTLE
The Wine Country Tour Shuttle is the Most Comprehensive Napa Valley Winery Tour from San Francisco! This tour provides many great unique features such as a Separate Tour Guide from Driver, 4 Premium Napa Winery Stops, Goes into the heart of Napa Valley - - not just nearby, Picnic Lunch, Winery Tours and the best part - - - a 50 minute relaxing Ferry/Bay Cruise from Napa area back to San Francisco (which totally avoids traffic coming home). This tour is truly unbelievable from the expert narration from their Wine Country Guides to the great wineries they visit. At only $95 per person, plus tasting fees (we highly recommend this unique tour). Tour Highlights include: Domaine Chandon Winery (winery tour), V.Sattui Winery (Picnic Lunch), Rutherford Ranch Winery and Andretti Winery (Mario Andretti's Winery), and a Ferry/Bay Cruise to the San Francisco.


MUIR WOODS TOUR w/ FERRY BAY CRUISE
This Muir Woods Tour is the only Redwood Tour that uses a Separate Tour Guide from Driver and stays longest in Muir Woods (90 minutes). This tour is also unique in that it goes to Marin Headlands (see below) to see the most majestic views of the Golden Gate Bridge (a very rare stop). You will also go to Sausalito, Muir Beach Overlook and a 25-minute Ferry/Bay Cruise. Tour Itinerary: Ferry Building, Marin Headlands, Sausalito, Muir Woods (90-minutes), Muir Beach Overlook, Ferry/Bay Cruise, End at the Ferry Building. We highly recommend this Muir Woods tour because of its unique relative to Muir Woods tour stops. This San Francisco Tour to Muir Woods is probably the best in town! (Muir Woods is only 20 minutes away!)



TOP COMBO TOUR: MUIR WOODS/SAN FRANCISCO CITY TOUR
The Most Comprehensive Combo Tour in San Francisco. 13 Tour Stops! This tour makes so many off-the-shuttle San Francisco tour stops and Muir Woods Tour stops that you will need the best shoes around. This 8 hour tour provides plenty of action. A Ferry/Bay Cruise that goes right by Alcatraz, Muir Woods (90-minutes), two guided walks: Chinatown and Lombard Street, and the best tour guide narrative. You will also spend 1 hour in Sausalito for lunch, shopping and exploring. When this combo tour is done - - you will be asking for more - we guarrantee it. This tour saves you $9 per person when combined with the city tour. Instead of paying $126 for both tours on separate days -- only pay $117 for Adults and do them in one day!

MONTEREY / CARMEL TOURS
Monterey and Carmel Village is a delight to wander in, with fun, odd shops
tucked in unexpected places . For Monterey it's really all about going to their amazing must-see Aquarium. On this tour you'll
find award-winning gardens, and see many qaint fairytale-like cottages,
mixed in among million-dollar homes. Carmel is home to the largest
concentration of art galleries on the west coast. There are an
abundance of fine restaurants to sample. This tour gives you plenty of time in both Monterey and Carmel.
YOSEMITE TOURS
This full day tour
of Yosemite National Park is a great way to experience some of the
most exciting scenery in California including Half Dome, Yosemite Falls,
Bridalveil Falls, Cathedral Rocks and the 3500ft El Capitan. If time
permits, you may be able to take a short walk to the base of Yosemite
Falls, the tallest waterfall in the United States and the world's fifth
largest.
WINE TRAIN-NAPA VALLEY
The luxury train begins in Napa and travels up the Napa Valley to St. Helena
and back. You can taste award-winning
California wines aboard the train. Sit back and relax all day as you sightsee
up the Napa Valley. At the end of the day, we drop you off at your hotel.
PRIVATE TOURS
You actually save money (in most cases) with a private tour. Medium to larger sized groups actually enjoy the benefits of a lower price per person for tours of all types when they come in larger numbers. Further, with private tours you really do get first class treatment ranging from 1) A before tour discussion with your tour guide is customary 2) San Francisco hotel pickup and drop-off 3) change the itinerary anyway you wish 4) Include lunch and tasting fees in the overall price of the tour. Basically, whatever you want is our command with a private tour.
AIRPORT JOCKEY (AIRPORT TRANSPORTATION)
Truly the most amazing Airport Transporation you will find anywhere! 12-seat shuttle van takes you to and from your hotel in luxury with free high-speed wireless Internet access, leather captains chairs, plenty of luggage room, a great easy to use schedule....on-board entertainment system offers LCD flat screen with San Francisco travel recommendations (via video). Outstanding experience! Only $25 each way per person. Spend about $5 more than a taxi and start enjoying your ride to-from the airport. Service in San Francisco starts May 1st, 2008.

Look for city tours that offer more stops and visit more than the most known landmarks in San Francisco.
We don't recommend drinking and driving thus, we don't recommend renting a car to go to Napa or Sonoma. Go on a bus tour from San Francisco that visits great wineries and has lots of variety during the tour.
So many people come to San Francisco and fail to visit the Giant California Sequioa Coastal Redwoods at Muir Woods National Park. We highly recommend this even over Alcatraz Island. Find a bus tour that uses smaller shuttles and visits other surrounding areas in Marin along with Muir Woods.
There is so much more to San Francisco. Seek out more than the Fisherman's Wharf area. We even suggest getting a hotel in Union Square than Fisherman's Wharf.
If you really need to go to Alcatraz then we suggest buying them from the source. Don't fall for the Alcatraz and City Tour Combo's. Those are simple packages that force you to pay markups for your tickets.
The taxi's in San Francisco can be expensive and the vehicles are not so nice. We recommend other shuttles and vans to/from the airport. No need to rent a car as parking is so expensive (even at your hotel)
