What people love about San Francisco Tours
- 5 day California Coastlines and Vineyards, Waves and Wine small group tour
I recently took this tour with a group of my closest girlfriends. We had a BLAST! This is a really well put together tour with super cute accommodation and a good range of included activities- the kayaking was amazing, truly a memorable experience. The winery choices and pairings were very much enjoyed. Our guide was exceptional- just so much fun and really knowledgeable about the area. I had looked at many tour companies and choose this one as it offers exceptional value for money. I was a little nervous and their aren’t very many reviews on this tour but then again I understand it’s a brand new tour and the company itself have thousands of great reviews. Really glad we picked Bindlestiff Tours. Overall a fantastic tour- thank you so much!

- 7-day West Coast America Tour
Such a fun experience! Guides were so friendly and helpful. Super accommodating to our needs (being under 21 and on a longer, more budget trip). Great inclusions on the trip as well as a lot of flexibility to do your own thing. They pack in so much but you still have time to chill if you wish. 2 weeks of great fun!
