I definitely recommend Dylan's tours. Jake was our driver and he was fantastic. He had a very good understanding of the history of San Francisco and was attentive to everyone's needs. We left with a great "feel" for the city mostly thanks to Jake. The tour was on schedule and the small tour busses were nice and clean. One day when we return, we would happily take another Dylan's tour to a different part of the city.James_B

Very great tour! Ro was amazing and provided many insights into San Francisco and the surrounding areas. Like the other comments mentioned, the only negative thing I can say is the lack of time spent in Sausalito. They say it’s enough time for a sit down lunch but only if you want to be rushed through your meal. I wished this tour offered a return ferry option like some others do to offer more flexibility in this regard.Irene_P

Knowledgeable guide who was an excellent driver. Lots of stops with plenty of time to enjoy the views. The highlight for me was Muir Woods.
