I’m not really a hop on hop off bus type and I have done most of the SFO sites on previous trips, I got this purely because my friend is not a fast walker (or fan of it ) and hadn’t been here before. I must say it’s a really nice way to get around and the bus top views are definitely a great way to view the city. If you’re short on time, the city really is stretched out, so this is a really great way to pack it all in. I really liked the app as it made it super easy to find the bus stops and live track when the bus is coming. The bus does only go one way so we watched the sunset at the painted ladies and got a taxi back and did the bridge and park on day 2 so we didn’t have to loop round twice.
The drivers and staff were really helpful and clear. The office is easy to find to collect your tickets. The app is great and makes the collection points easy to find and tracks the buses Good value. We did 2 days and managed to visit so many sights with these tours. Wrap up warm for the bridge!!!
