Great small tour company and definitely worth taking the early tour to Muir Woods before the big tour buses arrive. But....for families with young children or anyone prone to car sickness....the bus holds about 10 people. I had to sit at the back with my 4 year old. There was no air and it was very stuffy at the back... More

Had a terrific tour with Alan to Muir Woods and a few wineries. Highly recommend Alan and would definitely book with him again if I am back in SF in the future.

My wife and I had the good fortune to be switched to Best Bay Tours from our original tour provider and we were not disappointed! Our tour guide Mike was very friendly, courteous and very professional as he navigated us through the Sonoma and Napa Valley country for our wine tour. Mike has an impressive knowledge of the areas and... More

This was the best tour we have ever been on. Groups are small(we had one other couple and they were great), Alan was the greatest, the vineyards we visited were the best of the best. It was a great day and we highly recommend this tour if you are going to wine country!

Tripadvisor did not let us down with this tour. Alan did a fabulous job offering facts,stories and jokes (haha) throughout the day. Prompt pickup right from our hotel. We arrived at all destinations before the crowds, and our lunch and winery stops were also perfectly timed. Muir Woods were beautiful and so glad we added them to our itinerary. Larson... More

We wanted to get an overview of San Francisco so we booked The City Tour. This tour took us around the neighborhoods and we were able to customize it a bit to see some sights that we really wanted to see. The tour lasted about 3 hours and that was just the right amount of time to get the 'lay... More

It was my very first time out to Cali, and I've always wanted to see Napa. At first, I didn't know what to expect from the tour...but at the end of the day, I wish it never ended! My fiancee and I had the best time ever! (he doesn't even drink wine, and he said he wishes he can go... More

Very interesting tour of all the places we had heard about and many we hadn't. Very flexible about stopping for photo ops. Highly recommended!

This was an excellent tour. Our goal was to go to wineries that you could not find at the local market. This tour more than met our needs. My adult daughter and I were the only ones scheduled for the tour that day, which made this like a private tour. I was extremely impressed the tour was not cancelled since... More
