The best way to see SF - A little pricey but worth the $ (and you get to keep the bike, which comes with a lock, until nighttime). Our tour guide Adam really knows SF. He has a passion for the place, and it shows. See Chinatown, a fortune-cookie factory, the shoreline, skyscrapers, stadiums, house boats, old SF, street art, the Mission and beyond. Better than hop-on/hope-off and a walking tour, because you cover way more ground quickly. Don’t forget to ask Adam for ideas for bars, restaurants, sites to see, etc. We followed his advice (who doesn’t love an tiki bar!) and it really enriched the trip. You don’t have to be an expert bicyclist by any means but I wouldn’t recommend the tour if you’re a legitimately bad bicyclist.

Thank You Bay City Tours (and Adam)! - What an excellent tour! I cannot say enough nice things about our tour guide, Adam. He was incredibly attentive and made sure I was safe the entire time. His knowledge of each neighborhood and San Fran history was impressive. This was a memorable experience, and I highly recommend making this tour part of your next trip to the Bay.

A Must-Do in SF! - My husband and I went on a tour yesterday and absolutely loved it! Adam took us to all the most amazing spots and gave us the hidden history of SF. He was funny, knowledgeable, and of course prioritized safety. He had the best restaurant recommendations and really made us feel like we knew the city by the end of the tour! After the tour ended, we were able to keep the bikes and go on a self-guided trip to the Golden Gate Bridge, which we were given directions to. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting SF, whether it’s your first time here or your tenth - there’s always something new to learn and discover!

Great SF Ride - Great ride through SF led by Adam. He has a passion of the city and history that really came through! He took us to a lot of great places that we would have not known or been able to get to by car which was a great addition. Well done!
