Our Story

Born in San Francisco. Only in San Francisco.

18 years ago, we started as a small company that loved showing off Yosemite Valley, Muir Woods, and the wine country just a short drive away. From behind the wheel of a single van in 2002, we would ask hotel and hostel guests, “Who wants to go explore?”

One 5-star tour at a time, Extranomical Tours built a respectable reputation as the best small tour operator in San Francisco. Today, we are bigger but Extranomical’s “travelling with friends” vibe is still flourishing.

Why Extranomical Tours?

More attractions. We host guests to more San Francisco attractions and with more guaranteed departures than anyone.

More exclusive. To each tour, our guides add exclusive attractions and unique photo opportunities skipped by run-of-the-mill tours.

More personal. We make it easy to customize your experience with foreign language audios, child seats, bike rentals, ferry tickets, and more.

More convenient. In most cases, daily departures that fit your schedule and pick-ups at the front door of most San Francisco hotels.

More flexible. Schedule changes? Our local travel consultants are ready to jump on your chat, email, or phone call so your vacation stays on track.

More memories. By providing a relaxed, traveling-with friends-atmosphere, we have proudly earned more 5-star reviews than anyone.

Guaranteed Satisfaction.  We’ve got your back. If there is anything about your tour that fails to meet expectations, we’ll make good on our promise.

Our People

We are teachers, comedians, memory-makers, crowd pleasers and travel consultants eager to help you to see more and do more while in San Francisco.

Our Guests

We serve people who aspire to go where other tour companies don’t, like the Tuolumne Grove of Giant Sequoias; who want to customize their tour, perhaps with a gourmet lunch in the wine country; who want an unscripted experience to the diverse districts of our 49-square mile city; who want to be pampered with a hotel pickup; and who are open to striking up a friendship with someone from another part of the world.
