What people love about San Francisco Tours
- Western National Parks 7 Day Explorer Camping
Cool group leaders, wonderful nature and sights. Was a bit unlucky with my group as I would've preferred a younger crowd, but overall not too shabby.
- Western National Parks 7 Day Explorer Lodging
I had a wonderful time. I was a little disappointed in the accommodations at the Ellis Island hotel. Our deposit had not been taken care of as well as the resort fee. Our guide took care of the resort fee with his Bindlestiff Credit card but the hotel would no let him cover the deposit. The next night at the 395 travel lodge in Bishop our travel companions had an ant infestation in there room. Our SanFrancisco tour did not live up to the the booking guide. The was not stop at Fisherman’s Wharf.
Excellent tour stops and well worth the views. Plentiful bathroom and snack breaks, but the bus ride is long. However you cover 4 wonderful states, a drive I'd never do on my own. Edwardo was excellent tour guide and Roberto was nice but not as informative. Each hotel was clean and comfortable. Most offered a free hot breakfast. I recommend the tour and think it's a good value.
