MEET YOUR PRIVATE GUIDE
Hi, I'm Joe!
"I'm the dapper fellow in the white hat... I started San Francisco Private Tours with one goal in mind: to give visitors a more personal, relaxed, and unforgettable way to experience this incredible city—far beyond the typical group tour".
What began as a passion for sharing San Francisco with friends and family quickly grew into something more. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of guiding couples, families, corporate teams, and even a few celebrities—all looking for something private, flexible, and genuine.
I design each tour based on what you want to see, offering local insights, scenic routes, and great conversation along the way.
Ever since I made this my full-time mission, I’ve been proud to create tours that feel more like a day with a knowledgeable friend than a checklist of landmarks — along with some cool highlights like:
30+ years of local knowledge and guide experience.
Hundreds of 5-star tours, and happy reviews.
Trusted by families, executives, and VIP guests alike
