Fantastic Fire Truck Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

This is a fantastic experience. We did this tour about 14 years ago and then now again now with our kids. January was a bit cold going across the Golden Gate Bridge but still super fun. The views are fantastic and the historical information and stories make this a fantastic tour!

Excellent Trip

Published on Oct, 2024

We did this about ten times fifteen years ago but my partner wanted to do it again on his birthday, why was today the 20/10/24. We booked the 11:09am slot, there was about ten of us, including child and it did not disappoint. The whole tour is based in the SF bridge every aspect from every point covered with Johns driving and Gayles commentary excellent. They can no longer go in to Sausalito but they’ve organised some other great advantage points. If you’re here on a trip and you want something different and thoroughly enjoyable book this, it won’t disappoint.

Experience history from the back of a fire tender!

Published on Oct, 2024

We were impressed with the historical knowledge shared with us by both Sean and John. We had a great lesson on the founding and establishment of San Francisco over the years. Sean's never-ending stories of individual buildings and locations were an experience we won't forget! Equally impressive was John's driving skills and the tender care he displayed to the magnificent 1955 Mack fire tender. We were taken to places of amazing interest and exposed to history in a way we never expected. Please keep up the great work - a credit to San Francisco!

Fabulous tour lead by great people
