An excellent tour and a unique way to see the Golden Gate Bridge and other parts of San Francisco on the way.

5 adults and 3 children took the tour the day after Thanksgiving. Everything met and exceeded expectations, we loved the dog and the truck was immaculate and looked great in pictures. The only thing I would complain about is that the truck needs shock absorbers. The ride is quite bumpy in spots.

Best tour of San Fran if you have kids or if your an adult w/ a childs imagination. Wearing fire jackets, singing songs, listening to great stories riding in a firetruck. AWESOME.

We had a terrific time even though it was so chilly! Our 10 year grand son thought it was "awesome". Dianna and Brianna were great - fun stories, good info and singing! I would highly recommend it to any family looking for a unique way across the Golden Gate Bridge!

This was a great trip and lots of fun. It was our first visit to San francisco so we were not prepared for the below 60 degree weather in mid July, however with the coats we bought and the fireman coats that were provided we stayed fairly warm. Next time we go back will br bringing our boys and they are going to love it. Very unique, lots of fun and looking forward to it again.

Fantastic trip. I didn't know that there was a "white knuckle ride" over the Golden Gate Bridge but this was it. Beautiful machine,looks new and goes like a bomb!.The driver and co driver kept us entertained throughout. Highly recommended. Hang on for dear life!

What a great trip. Our Guide was the best fun. And talk about energy. And the Captain plays the straight man to perfection. We went as a family of two adults and a 12 year old boy. I don't think we stopped smiling for the whole 75 minutes. I would recommend this tour to anyone going to San Francisco and if there is a better way to cross the Golden Gate I am not sure what it is. Thanks!! It is always a pleasure to deal with people who clearly love their jobs as much as you do. A real highlight of our trip.

This was a great way to see the city and cross the Golden Gate bridge. Maryilyn and her husband are very entertaining and you can tell they love what they do. We were able to get great photos from both sides of the bridge. Small groups make it fun. Group singing added to the charm. They even have hats and scarfs if you need them to keep warm. Great for all ages. They depart from the Cannery at Fisherman's Wharf which was easy to get to.

Being in a fire truck made it fun, and different from all the other tours. Our entire group enjoyed it. The team that ran the tour really made sure that you were equipped for weather. They were also very attentive to the children.

Very amateurish, only for children. Woman was so full of herself. Her Guinness Book of Records singing was terrible. Would rather have taken a city tour and learnt more about San Francisco. Tour left late. Thank God for the seat belts.

This is a fabulous tour for kids more so than adults. I wish we had a street address for the place where you begin so it could more easily be found with GPS.

The only concern we had was with the fire truck itself. My husband was the last person in the row and was not confident about the strength of the seat belts. He had no where to hold on to. There should be a bar across the back or at least something else for the people to hold on to.
