Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the tour?

The perfect length. Your sightseeing adventure lasts about 90 minutes with about 25 minutes of that time on the bay. We pass by many of the important points of history and current event sites to give you an overview of the area. The uniqueness of our vehicle also allows you to interact with the street so you get a real feel for life in San Francisco. We leave you plenty of time to go back to the sites where you really want to spend more time.

To ensure you get a seat on the tour of your choice we recommend you purchase tickets in advance. Our phone number is 877-887-8225.
