We ❤️ San Francisco

It was very lovely to have spent our morning with one of the warmest, kindest, attentive and knowledgeable persons. Our private tour guide, Pep, was flexible and suggested various ways to benefit the travel needs of our party. We have been to San Francisco in the past, but this time we were really able to appreciate being shown a different side of the city. We went to places we have never seen before and discovered more of San Francisco’s beauty. We would highly recommend Pep as a guide for any of your private tours that are offered by her company.

Operator response

Thanks Mary. I had a memorable day with your great family. I hope to see you again on your next visit to the city in 2026!

Tour of San Francisco by Alegro Private Tours

Our family was visiting San Francisco for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend and contacted Alegro Private Tours. Pep did an awesome job showing us around San Francisco and Muir Woods. The highlights tour for the kids were: The Gingerbread House at the Fairmont Hotel, Cable car ride, and the giant Redwoods in Muir Woods.

Operator response

Thanks Miriam. I had a lot of fun with your family. Hope to see you soon.

Great experience

We loved that our guide was willing to stop and take pictures along the way including the Doubtfire House and GGBridge vistas. Muir Woods was so peaceful. We didn’t have much time for exploring the cities of Sausalito and Tiburon. Wish we could have had more time but who knew when booking. Great trip.

Operator response

Thank Susan for all your support. We always allow flexibility whenever possible. Happy Thanksgiving.

Out of this World Woods!

Out of this world woods with ancient trees! Definitely worth the trip. Pep is a well-informed local guide and a wonderful environmentalist with a lot of knowledge to share. I’d recommend starting early as traffic starts to build up. Thank you, Alegro Tours.

Operator response

Thanks Maryann. I had a wonderful day with your family. Hope to see you again when you return in a couple of years.

A wonderful adventure to new places!

Our Viator guide, Pep, was awesome! She gave us great recommendations on how to spend our time on the tour to get the most out of the 4 hours we had with her. Because of her knowledge of the towns of Sausalito and Tiburon, we saw sights we never would have seen if we had been traveling on our own. We are still talking about the most enjoyable day we had with Pep!

Operator response

Thanks Sharon. You were a delightful group. Additionally, you clearly communicated what you wanted to see and were open to suggestions. Hope to see you again in the future. Have a wonderful trip!

Great short trip from SF yet a WORLD AWAY!

FANTASTIC Beauty a short drive from downtown SF yet a WORLD AWAY! No time for the Giant Redwoods, this is a perfect micro substitute. Parking is limited wear good non-slip shoes. Most trails have good wooden planks for motorized wheelchairs. We'll equipped souvenir shop with refreshments & restrooms. It's easy to see where Walt Disney may have created his films or George Lucas conjured the Ewok village in this must see location. T-n-L

The Bay Area is a magical place with something for everyone. We are glad to hear that your family had a fun experience in Muir Woods. Thank you for your support.

3 generations had a great day together and learned so much!

Our guided tour was a highlight of my multi-generational trip. Book it on one of your first days in San Francisco so that you can get your guide's insights into the city and area. You will learn a lot and get some insider tips! She knows the very best spots to take you, is so kind and wonderful to spend the day with, and will inspire kids and adults alike with her knowledge of nature and the region. She can take you places for photos too. And, if you have children who would like to learn more about ecology, make sure to let your guide know because there is so much to be learned from them and your surroundings.

Operator response

Children are the future. The "village "has to teach them well so that they can become better stewards of our planet. I learn as much as they learn from me. I look forward to your next visit. Thank you.
