Description
Ride in comfort before you float the bay as you tour the city’s most iconic landmarks, on this San Francisco City tour. Our city insider guide goes way beyond a “hop-on, hop-off” experience to deliver a fully-narrated San Francisco sightseeing adventure.
Stop #1 – Palace of Fine Arts
After a morning pickup at one of two convenient San Francisco locations, your city tour will begin on San Francisco’s waterfront in the popular Fisherman’s Wharf before rolling through the Marina District on your way to your first stop. At the lovely and instagrammable Palace of Fine Arts, you will have the chance to stop and photograph the historic building, grounds, and stunningly beautiful lagoon.
Stop #2 – Golden Gate Bridge
Continue to the most iconic stop at the Golden Gate Bridge. Spend 10-15 minutes at a perfect vista point taking photos and creating memories.
Stop #3 – Land’s End Overlook
The next stop on your San Francisco tour will be the historic Land’s End where you can stretch your legs while overlooking Sutro Baths and the Pacific Ocean coastline. Later, you will be blown away by the beauty of Golden Gate Park as you ride past Dutch windmills, Queen Wilhelmina’s tulip garden, the bison paddock, and old redwood and eucalyptus groves. Next, we’ll take you through the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, where you can see some of San Francisco’s famous Victorian homes, known for their iconic architecture.
Stop #4 – Twin Peaks
Fog-permitting, the next stop on this San Francisco bus tour gives you a birds-eye-view of the whole Bay Area from atop Twin Peaks. Here, you’ll get an amazing panoramic view of the Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Tamalpais, Mount Diablo, the whole San Francisco Bay and more from the viewpoint sitting 1,000 feet above sea level. To say it’s breathtaking would be an understatement!

Amazing customer service
I had a wonderful time. I loved our guide - he was very knowledgable, caring, kept track of everyone and communicated well. We got to see so much of the city that we knew we wouldn't have a chance to see while we were there for only a short time. And they also have a very accommodating customer service. Thank you Extranomical Tours and for your customer service

Highly recommended!
If you have just a few days in San Francisco, this is a great way to visit the most iconic places in the city. I recommend you take this tour the first day, that way you’ll know which places you really want to visit.

We recommend!
The guide grew up in San Francisco and took us through many interesting parts of the city. It was a good mix of regular sightseeing and inside information. The group was just right with six people to take individual wishes into account. We recommend!!!!

Guide is amazing!
We had an amazing afternoon. The small group also allowed for questions and the climatized van with the huge windows was really optimal for sightseeing. Most of all: our SF-local driver guide was amazing!

Guide is amazing!
We had an amazing afternoon. Really extensive tour and I don't think we missed anything in San Francisco. It was really nice that we were only with a small group and small van so the car could sometimes stop on the road side whenever we passed an interesting landmark that we wanted to learn more about. The small group also allowed for questions and the climatized van with the huge windows was really optimal for sightseeing. Most of all: our SF-local driver guide was amazing!
