My name is America I am from Texas. I never take the time to do reviews but I was blown away by the service that I just had to tell you my experience. My first day in San Francisco I booked a pvt tour w/ a different company which I will not mention. The lady driver was nice but she... More

My wife and I booked a last minute cruise that stopped in San Fran. Booking as late as we did, most of the desirable shore excursions were sold out. Thus we started looking for other options and we happened upon Silver Lion Tours. To say this worked to our benefit is a huge understatement. I cannot think of one negative... More

Wow says it all. Holger made our two days in The bay area just perfect. It was everything we wanted and more. He knows San Francisco extremely well and took us to places in the wine country that we could never find on our own. I travel with my 80+ father and Holger took great care of him the entire... More

Based on other reviews found here at TripAdvisor, we contacted Holger about scheduling a tour of sites in Marin County. My family and I gave him a few places that we definitely wanted to visit, and he did a great job of adding some extra spots that he suspected we'd enjoy. He was right! Like other reviewers have noted, Holger... More

We went on a whirlwind vacation to San Francisco March of 2012 with our two teenage daughters. We wanted to get a good feel of the city, but also had some specific requests from our kids. Holger far exceeded our expectations! We were unlucky enough to be stuck with a dismal, rainy day. Holger called me in the morning to... More

Can't say enough about Holger and the day my wife and I had. He picked us up at our hotel at 9:00 a.m. And dropped us off at 5:00 p.m. and all the in between was a ball. Holger is very knowledgable and entertaining. He knew the off-the-beaten-path places and facts to go along with them. We will use his... More

Trusting the amazing reviews on trip advisor we did this tour with Holger and it was really great. We visited lots of places and ended the tour in front of the AT&T park because we had tickets for the game. Holger is a great guy. Very funny. And the soundtrack on the tour is a great detail! We wanted to... More

Holger was very obliging, knowledgeable, easy to get along with and he showed us this beautiful city of San Francisco with great passion. Our city highlights tour left no stone unturned. This tour gave us so much insight that we felt like locals. Our Carmel and Monterey tour was spectacular to say the least. We saw so much and never... More
