Overview

This hop-on hop-off bus tour of San Francisco covers over 17 stops, including major landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, Chinatown, the Painted Ladies, Haight-Ashbury, Union Square, and Golden Gate Park. The route runs on an open-top double-decker bus, allowing passengers to enjoy panoramic views of the Bay as they cross the Golden Gate Bridge. The tour lasts about two hours if taken continuously, but tickets allow flexible 24- or 48-hour use for hopping on and off at any stop. Passengers receive digital audio commentary with souvenir earbuds that provide information and stories about the city as the bus travels between stops. The operator also provides a downloadable app with route details and live bus tracking. Optional add-ons include admission to Aquarium of the Bay at Pier 39, a one-hour panoramic sunset tour, and a one-hour digital walking tour of Chinatown. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included. The tour is wheelchair accessible with prior arrangements. Tickets are activated either through the app or at the Big Bus Visitors Center on Jefferson Street or with any driver along the route.
