The ultimate San Francisco experience: 48 hours to enjoy all of our tours at your own pace.
Downtown Loop -
The newest way to see San Francisco is with our open top double-decker bus tour - hop on and off as many times as you like! The fully narrated tour lasts around 75 minutes if you stay on the bus for the full loop. All double-deckers are open tops, providing the very best views of San Francisco. Buses run every 30-60 minutes (depending on season, please call for details) from 10:00am to 5:00pm. Your ticket is valid for unlimited use for 48 hours from the time you start. The tour covers all of central San Francisco.
Golden Gate Loop - (Choose the All Loops option)
Rather than a hop on/hop off tour, this is an excursion stopping at 2 places: the Palace of Fine Arts and the Golden Gate Bridge. Departing from Fisherman's Wharf, pass through the Marina district for a brief photo stop at the Palace of Fine Arts. From here, the tour continues through the Presidio with beautiful views of the Bay, Golden Gate and Crissy Fields. You'll enjoy the best views in San Francisco as you cross the Golden Gate bridge. From the top deck, you'll have unobstructed views of the Bridge, Alcatraz, Angel Island, Marin Headlands, Baker Beach and San Francisco's skyline. After a 10 minute photo stop at Vista Point, cross back over the bridge, exploring the Presidio and Pacific Heights before returning to Fisherman's Wharf. The fully narrated tour lasts between 60 - 75 minutes. Buses run 9:00am, 1:30pm, 4:00pm (depending on season, please call for details). Your ticket is valid for unlimited use for 48 hours from the time you start.
Night Loop - (Choose the All Loops option)
This 1 hour night tour departs at 6:00pm nightly from Macys at Union Square (Geary between Powell and Stockton). Departing from Union Square, this tour covers the major attractions of San Francisco by night.
