We did a duck boat in Portland ME and really loved it. Duck Boat in SF was just okay. Don't expect to get a lot of info on SF, but there is a lot of silly, fun stuff. And the dip into the water is very gimmicky as you don't go anywhere but in a circle. Would have been better... More

We went on the special holiday lights motorized cable car tour tonight at 7:00pm. The driver, Skye, was very entertaining and informative. The weather was great which made this a perfect time for the tour. We stopped at the Fairmont for about 10 minutes which is beautifully decorated, and we learned many facts about the city's history that we did... More

We must have had the most outward going fun loving tour guide there, he was a blast. Had everyone singing on the tour and believe me, I don't sing. Had everyone in a party mood, saw the sights and even got to have a drive in the bay, fantastic fun for all! More

That tour was so much fun. We have a 3 yr old, 10 yr old, and 18 yr old. The tour guide was hilarious and at the same time serious with a lot of interesting information. We saw so much and laughed all the way. Everyone gets a duck Quaker and everyone was quacking at people on the streets and... More

This is a great way to see the streets and neighborhoods of San Francisco, and also see the city from the Bay in a boat at the same time. Ninety minutes was the perfect amount of time, and the the trip went off exactly as scheduled (we left from the Union Square location). The driver was entertaining, and the kids... More

We rode the duck June 29th. This was the most fun I have had on any tour. We missed our 1100 scheduled tour time and they allowed us to take a later tour that day that fit into our schedule, no problem. Our driver Capt. Van was awesome. He was entertaining and I learned more about San Francisco than I... More
