Tower Tours, San Francisco

Since they're still working out the kinks on saddles for whales, there's no better way to experience San Francisco than from a luxury motor coach. That's where the expert guides from Tower Tours come in. Whether you'd like a closer look at the city itself or to get outside to Yosemite, these gorgeous coaches can get you there in comfort. Take a look at some of the tours on the menu:

• Grand City Tour: These daily excursions stop at some of the city's most renowned landmarks, from Chinatown to Presidio National Park, and also offer photo opportunities at Golden Gate Bridge, the Civic Center, and Twin Peaks, weather permitting.
• Muir Woods Tour: The coaches cruise over the Golden Gate Bridge and into a canyon filled with 1,000-year-old redwoods towering 260 feet above the forest floor. Afterwards, the buses head to Sausalito, a Mediterranean-esque village across the Bay.
• Napa & Sonoma Wine Country Tour: Two of the country's most renowned wine-producing regions unfold before the motor coaches, as the tours provide estate tours and tastings at Maddona Estate, Sutter Home Winery, and Sebastiani Vineyards.
