Fabulous tour
Amazing tour of San Francisco. Dirceu or driver and guide was helpful, professional and friendly.
He went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. I think we saw just about everything.
Only sorry we couldn’t stay longer.
Thank you very much.
Can highly recommend.

SFO City Tour
Ask for a minivan or a car with lots of windows and a moonroof. If you sit in the back, it’s hard to see everything that you’re touring around to see.. Don’t need to do it again.

Excellent introduction to a fascinating city, especially for those never having visited.
Dirceu knows the city and its history so well that he drove us to all the neighborhoods without ever backtracking, spoke with relish about the people and places and answered question's accurately. He met us promptly, respected our request to have a lunch break and used the time perfectly. There were 6 of us -- all adults -- and the two rear seats would probably be uncomfortable for those 6ft and over and window views not as spacious as the seats in middle and with driver. This a minor issue for sure. Also, Dirceu pointed out that going early in the day, preferably not on a Sunday, allows for much less traffic and perhaps more opportunities to stop and look around.

Awesome private tour of San Francisco city!
The private tour of San Francisco was awesome. Our driver Dirceu was very knowledgeable of the key points and history of the city. We enjoyed the panoramic views from Twin Peaks and that tower in Russian hill. We enjoyed the tour in a Escalade that was comfortable. Dirceu took us to places that I had never had a chance to see before. A great tour if one has not much time and to avoid the crowds like the Hop In bus tour. We felt like VIPs for there was just myself and family on this luxury SUV.
