This Blazing Saddles Electric Bike Tour of the SF City, over the Golden Gate Bridge, and into Sausalito was amazing! Our Expert Tour Guide, Peter, made it great with his wealth of knowledge of the SF history, inside knowledge, nuanced facts, and his humor. It was a good full day experience and the stops along the way made the 20 miles feel effortless. Take this tour with Peter of Blazing Saddles.
All the staff at Blazing Saddles were super friendly! Eli was a fantastic guide! Biking over the Golden Gate Bridge was awesome! Highly recommend!
Danielle, so happy you enjoyed your guided tour with Eli. We appreciate your great recommendation.
Excellent way to experience the Marina neighborhood, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Sausalito. Friendly and attentive staff from start to finish. And Bill is a fantastic guide!
Blake, glad you got to experience one of Bill's guided tours. We agree, biking is the best way to experience San Francisco!
This was a very fun way to get out and see the city while learning some history and getting fresh air. Bill made it fun!
Tom, happy to hear that had fun on your tour with Bill!
We had a great electric bike tour in San Francisco with Peter. Along with our family of four there was one other family, which was the perfect number for the tour. Peter was very knowledgeable, friendly and funny, and certainly made the tour enjoyable, and memorable. Picking up the bikes was very straightforward and when we cycled across the bridge to Sausalito we left them there to come back on a Blazing Saddles trailer. It couldn’t have been easier. We had booked the Blazing Saddles charter ferry which was punctual & very easy to access, especially without the bikes. It was a great way to see some of the sights of the city, cycle across the bridge, have a lovely lunch in Sausalito, and a ferry ride across the bay. We did 2 or 3 other tours/experiences in San Francisco while we were there, and we all agreed that the bike tour was our best day! We would highly recommend Blazing Saddles, especially with electric bikes!
Jennifer, we love hearing that your e-bike tour was your favorite experience while visiting San Francisco!
My favorite experience in San Francisco! Definitely recommend the e-bike option. I haven’t ridden a bike in years and had never been on an e-bike - handled fine. DO IT!
Thanks, we agree, everyone should DO IT! E-bikes are the best.
We absolutely loved our e-bike tour of San Francisco with Blazing Saddles. I did the tour with my son, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. It was such a fun and memorable way to see the city and we couldn’t have done more on our own. It was definitely worth the money and I highly recommend Blazing Saddles.
We love hearing that we were the highlight of your trip with your son! Thanks for the great recommendation.
Friendly staff Check in and check out super easy Guides Peter and Meara were excellent A great time and experience
Happy to hear you loved your guided tour with us.
A do not miss experience! Orly was an amazing guide .. super knowledgeable and did a wonderful job leading the group. The ride across the bridge is exhilarating!
Thanks for making us a "do not miss experience"!
Need to show up 30min to checkin, sign waiver, and the staff will fit the best fit bicycle or for us the EBike was very helpful for our youngster and his elderly grandparents going up steep climb. Our guide “Orla” was very welcoming and professional on our tour. She stopped at various scenic points while providing valuable insight and history. She kept a watchful eye on all her “chicks” as we navigated thru the San Francisco bridge and fog. Sadly our journey ended in Sausalito town with our fabulous guide Orla. It was helpful of Blazing Saddle to secure a ferry back with your bikes to the pier of Fisherman Wharf. The equipment provided was very reliable which made the journey quite a memorable experience for all.
Wow, sounds like Orla took great care of you! So glad the whole family had fun.
