Lovely lively city

This was a nice overview of the city and to show what a lively interesting place it is. The brief visits inside each place helped me plan the rest of our visits to return to

Great tour for the price.

San Jose city bus tour with dinner

Published on Jan, 2025

Good overview if you are short on time and have a Birds Eye view of San Jose in few hrs. Nice to sit on the upper deck of the double decker bus

Great Overview of San Jose

Published on Jan, 2025

Good overview of the important sights to see in San Jose. Our guide also shared interesting history. The double decker bus provides a nice view while also getting some live musical entertainment.

My friend and I did a city tour yesterday and the tour guide was extremely courteous and patient. Lord, I forgot his name, but he was excellent. It was a great experience.
