On a whim I decided to see if there was space on one of the Painted Ladies Tours. I was in San Francisco for the day, and this seemed like a good way to explore the city. I was delighted that there was one space left, and the pick-up was only a half block away from where I was. They arrived promptly at the appointed time. The other guests were from a variety of places in and outside of the US. The driver (Dominic) was sure to introduce everyone to each other, and the 8 of us set off on our adventure. We rode in "Daisy", a bright yellow VW van. The vehicle size was perfect for moving around in the city traffic, which can be challenging, and our guide drove with care. He did a good job of pointing out points of interest and providing historical background. There was music playing in the background which often was referencing the places we were or were performed by musicians from that neighborhood. The pace of the tour was just right. The guide let us know when good photo opportunities were coming up, and on which side of the vehicle. We stopped at a few places that were best enjoyed on foot. Our driver ensured everyone got the photos they wanted and took photos for some people so they could be in their group photo. Snacks and beverages were provided for us at one of the stops.While we were stopped at a light a couple who had taken the tour the previous day caught our attention and waved. Clearly, they'd had a great experience on their tour as well.The tour both met and exceeded my expectations.Highly recommended.

I had a great time with our tour guide Jim! Knowledgeable, funny and made the trip worth it. I'd do it again. Daisy the bus go us through. I learned more than I thought I would. San Francisco has such a rich and great history. Truly recommend. The ride was not as bumpy as other reviews. I guess Daisy treated us well.

We had the most fun! We took a private 3 hour tour and our guide, Jim was such an amazing host. He had tons of facts and we saw so many special places I don't think I would have ever seen previously. We loved our van, Rosie! She was such a comfy ride and enjoyed all of the waves We received as she passed by people. I would absolutely encourage you to book a tour. We had out of town guests who loved it and, as lifetime Bay Area residents, my husband and I also had just the best time! Thank you so much, Painted Ladies and most especially Jim, we will not forget this special afternoon!

Such a fun tour! I called and they were able to find us a tour guide for the next day at 4:15pm last minute, we needed a later time because our flight got in at 2. Cousin Al was a great guide and had lots of knowledge about the city. The stop off at golden gate park was beautiful and we enjoyed the Racer 5 IPA beers. I would recommend an earlier tour because the sun was gone by 5:15 so half of our tour was in the dark but Al made the best of it by taking us to pacific heights to see the beautiful xmas lights and trees already up in the bay windows. Great experience

We had a great time on an all day wine tour with Caio. We lucked out and had a private tour because the other party cancelled the night before departure. We saw the Golden Gate Bridge and went to 3 delicious wineries in Sonoma. Caio was an awesome tour guide full of recommendations, insights and history of the city. Can't wait to book again!

I was lucky to book the last seat 90 minutes before the 1:45 Friday ride out of Union Square. Josh was our driver and there were 7 passenger's total. Josh was very knowledgeable and had a great personality. We weren't able to see the Golden Gate Bridge due to heavy fog and the park was closed for a private event but that didn't ruin our trip.

We celebrated my sisters 70th birthday taking a painted ladies tour inside Poppy, a vintage vw bus. Our tour guide Caio was on time, delightful, adorable and very knowledgeable in San Francisco history. He showed us many iconic places, we shared stories and laughed a lot too.Book with Caio. He has great energy and lovely to be around.Tip him well, he earned it.

Caio was awesome and we had the best time on this very informative and entertaining tour

Just celebrated my milestone birthday and Girl's Weekend with my college besties in San Francisco - we booked the wine tour and loved it - traveling in Poppy to 3 different wineries was so much fun and our guide, Caio, was awesome - he told us tidbits about the city, the drive, the wineries - and started us all off with a beautiful view of the Golden Gate Bridge with mimosas to start our day! He had water and snacks and even umbrellas to keep us dry, and his playlist led to a VW bus singalong on the way back into the city. Additionally, he picked us up at our VRBO, making it even easier for us to enjoy the tour and our time in SF. Thank you to Poppy and Caio for a fantastic tour experience! Highly recommend!
