"My wife and I were extremely satisfied with SF Excursions and our host Brendan. If you are ever going to visit SF for the first time, I highly recommend this excursion! Brendan was very attentive answered all our questions and provided a very detailed and fun tour for us of SF. We've booked several excursions in the past and what we liked the most about Brendan at almost every location we stopped he volunteered to take great pictures of us."

"DO IT! Brendan was hilarious and extremely knowledgeable. I’ve been to SF many times and taken a couple (generic) tours before, I thought I knew just about everything. But it became very clear that Brendan was born and raised in SF, which I heard is super rare actually. Hit him up after the tour for recommendations on ANYTHING; restaurants, bars, clubs, museums, sights, activities, etc. Especially if you want to get away from the tourists traps."

"Brendan was an amazing guide who kept us entertained with his witty humor and expansive knowledge of SF! My husband and son are huge history buffs and Brendan gave so much detail about every stop on the tour! Unfortunately we were not able to visit Muir Woods due to it being closed but Brendan was more than accommodating, offering to take anyone who wanted to go the following week. You will not be disappointed!"
