My family came from Korea and we wanted a trip in CA.
I purchased 4 disney tickets and this package from tours4fun.
Honestly, I didn't expect too much because too good price.
Wow, we stopped by so many places and we stayed at Marriott.. Fremont CA.
The hotel is really clean and very modern style. Great beds and about 50 min. far from San Fran. Bus stop every two hours for bathroom and you cannot bring coffee cups in the bus…etc. But, you should realize asian style tour is different. Some strict rules, move fast and get on & out the bus many times. BUT, you can see so many things and totally worth for money.
Oh, food, additional tour in San Fran and tips are excluded. I highly recommend to college students, anyone don't have a plan to drive during travel, anyone don't really have time to look in LA & San Fran area.

I traveled with my mother, which was very happy about seeing more of the States when she was visiting. We both were very happy with the amount of things we got to see on two days, and liked the attractions. We saw so much things during such.. short period of time. I really loved the hotel! It was nice and fresh! The breakfast was simple, but it worked. The tour guide was nice. He said everything in English and Chinese since there were both people not speaking English and people not speaking Chinese on the trip. He was very clear with what time we would be back, and was thinking of our safety a lot. He seemed a little stressed when we were late because of traffic.
Over all it was a very good tour and I would do the tour again if the prize was the same, and my mother as well. Thank you!Read full review
I have always dreamed to step on the ground of Yosemite. Just as I have thought, the view is amazing. Not only that the tour guide have great plan. I understand where people want to stay longer so he plan the tour based on his clients' pref..erence. Read full review

The above mentioned tour which I took with Tours4Fun (T4F) was one of the best tours I had done. It had been a very memorable experience for me in terms of management and places covered.
To begin with pre-travel experience, I booked this t..our through website and during the course of booking I do had few queries which were resolved promptly by the T4F customer service department.
Also, they were pro-active in informing the change in the Day 3 itinerary (change to Monterey Bay instead on Yosemite) because of government shutdown. I was quite impressed with all this, though still apprehensive about the tour.
On the day of the tour, we had pick-up from the location specified on time.
The bus was comfortable and the tour guide (Kelvin) and the bus driver were very friendly and courteous. They were very helpful overall.
The places covered in the tour were same as mentioned on the itinerary (except for day 3 because of reasons mentioned above).
On day 1, we started from LA and went to Santa Barbara beach where we were given ample time, so that we were able to go to the end of the pier and return. Next crossing the scenic beauty of the area, we went to the beautiful town on Solvang which was built in Danish style. It was a very good place and we had lunch there only.
Around evening, we reached Silicon Valley area and saw offices of some of the major corporation. Subsequent to that, we visited Stanford University. After this, we stopped for dinner and then reached our hotel by 8.30. We got the same hotel as was mentioned in the itinerary. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay there for 2 days.
Day 2 started with visiting the Lombard street which was just amazing. After this, we were taken to the Golden gate bridge which was again a wonderful experience. Pier 39-45 was our next stop where we had almost 2 hours at our disposal to have lunch, do some shopping and of course, sightseeing.
We opted for both bay-cruise and city tour. Through these tours, we got to see almost all the attractions in SFO. The tour guide and driver also took us to another attraction (which was not planned) when one of the planned attractions was closed due to some temporary problem. Post this, we went for some shopping and dinner in the SFO Chinatown where though the restaurants were predominantly Chinese, we could find other restaurants / cuisines also of our choice.
On Day 3, we started early in the morning and went to Monterey bay area and visited the beautiful golf course of the world. The scenic beauty of the route impressed me quite a lot. By evening, we reached LA and subsequently our drop-off location comfortably.
There were stoppage every 1.5 - 2 hours so, there was no food / restrooms related problems for anyone. The stoppages were on places where we could find different kind of restaurants and could have food of our choice.
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. It was well managed and well planned and gave a good coverage of SFO attractions. Though some people may find it a bit difficult to understand the heavy accent to the tour guide, but that is a minor part as compared to hassle free, well managed tour you are getting.
Highly recommended. I would definitely be taking another tour with T4F in near future.

The tour guide, Jason was good in terms of explaining the sites of interest as well as the added tour to Google, Microsoft and Apple.
However, the city tour at SF, which cost $25 is not worth it. Can give it a go
Good tour guide (good english), Well organized tour (except for Stanford university tour, which was not covered well due to failing light).
I feel the optional indepth city tour of san francisco should be merged with regular tour (and i..nclude the optional fee of $25 to tour fee, it is inexpensive and worth). This would help to rearrange timings and good coverage of stanford university in day time.
The food on final day (big buffet) was good, it is a steal @ $11.

The tour was really good as they covered most of the high sight seeing places.Our Pilot Sunday and tour guide Larry was added credit for the tour.He was able to explain everything with historical background which really impressed .
The t..our pack was scheduled in a such a way that u will be able to see all listed places with slightly hectic schedule due to distance and traffic.
The optional tour are all worth paying for it except the SFO in depth tour which does not make me satisfied for paying .
Over all the tour was all good.Read full review
I was doing online research for package tours to Europe and came across Tours4Fun's website. It was easy to navigate, good layout, and easy to find the information I need. I didn't know that it's a conglomerate of different tour companies s..o there were times when I ask questions, they had to go back to the provider in Europe. One of the drawbacks was that there was no specific person to deal with therefore, I would always have to give a background to the person. There Read full review
The tour was great, the tour guide (Hu) was nice and knowledgeable, in fact IMO he's the best among all the tour guides that I encountered in all my 3 tours with Tours4fun. All the hotels we stayed in was good.
The only thing is Tours4fun s..hould not charge extra $25 for the city tour, SF is not that big! and we had to pay the tips for that day too! Read full review
