Movie tour - This is a must do tour in San Francisco. If you are a movie buff, you will love seeing the sights from some of your favorite movies. And Bryan was able to rattle off movie trivia off the top of his head.

San Francisco Movie Location tour - We took the SF Movie tour because we have an interest in movies and also because we wanted to see San Francisco from a different perspective. We are travelling as a group of 8 with 3 teenagers. Our guide Wylie was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He had some great stories and anecdotes. Each movie location was accompanied by the relevant movie clip. We all enjoyed the experience and it even kept the teenagers engaged for the duration of the tour. Excellent value for money and a great way to see the city.

10/10 - It was our first time in San Francisco and one of our family members told us about this wonderful movie tour that takes you around the most famous place in San Francisco. We only stayed in San Francisco 2 days and with this movie tour we didn’t need to stay longer cause we saw everything with them. Our movie tour guy was named Wylie and he was a wonderful and funny movie guide. It was worth the 3 hours to do this. I got to see one of my favorite tv show house Full House and went to the park. San Francisco was a beautiful place to visit and Movie Sights City Tour was even more better. Check them out you won’t regret it!! Thanks San Francisco Movie Sights City Tour!!!

San Francisco Movie Tour - Awesome tour of the movie locations and the city as a whole. Bryan was an excellent tour guide and very informative. I was amazed at how he could multitask with driving through traffic, manning the video screen, and informing us what we were seeing. I would highly recommend this three hour tour if you’re into movies shot in San Francisco.

A MUST tour when visiting SF. - You MUST book this experience. The tour guide Wylie, was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining, and funny. We had plenty of stops for photo opportunities and to learn more about SF's history. The tour van was very clean and roomy. Also the tour had the movie clips paired with the scenic location for referencing. We also were given a bonus location and saw the house that was used to film Ms. Doubtfire. This is an absolute MUST if you are visiting SF. Excellent job!
