Super Sightseeing Tours
415-353-5310
Super Sightseeing Tours offers a number of tour options in the San Francisco area. They range from a simple day trip around the city to a multi-day exploration of Northern California and the beautiful wine country that surrounds San Francisco.
The cost of a ticket at Super Sightseeing is a little high. For example, their basic three-and-a-half hour tour has a ticket price of $45 - which, when you're packed on a bus with a number of other people can seem like a lot. However, their full day tour of the nearby forests and national parks is only $78.
Electric Tour Company
415-474-3130
What sets the Electric Tour Company apart from the competition is that they conduct their tours on Segways. Segways are essentially motorized personal scooters that allow the individual to ride them while standing in an upright position. They offer four tours, depending on your skill level, and each tour includes a riding and driving lesson. Each tour costs about $70 but includes the Segway rental along with a fully guided tour.
One of the best things about their tours is that they're limited in the number of people they can take. The maximum number of people you'll see in any tour group is 10, which is great and offers a very personal and engaging guided experience. Their guides are also very personable and friendly.
Local Tastes of the City Food Tours (415) 665-0480
What sets this tour company apart from the rest is that they focus on the food of San Francisco, not the sights. They have three major tours - a Chinatown tour, a North Beach/Little Italy trip and a night excursion. Each tour takes you through the city's coolest eateries and into back rooms to see how it's all done. The best part? You get to eat.
The tours last between 2 and 3 hours and span no more than 8 blocks. The majority of time is spent at about 8 or 9 restaurants and venues, so it's not overly strenuous or taxing. For this popular tour, book early and expect to pay just under $60 for a ticket.
San Francisco Fire Engine Tours and Adventures
415-333-7077
If you're a big kid at heart and have a soft spot in your heart for giant, red fire trucks, then this is the tour for you.

The San Francisco area has many great viewing opportunities. If you plan to visit, you will do yourself a favor by squeezing in the time for a professional tour of the city.
