Alegro Private Tours

05/29/2007 Posted by atlcarly

My family used Alegro Tours for a day trip to Napa. Pep arranged for us to visit several unique wineries on our trip. One was by request, and the others were based on her gaining a knowledge of our preferences and interests. We were a group of 6, and it's hard to please everyone, but we really enjoyed all the venues. A highlight was a private tour of a wine cave. She also arranged for us to have lunch while in Napa at a local Italian restaurant. The food was delicious, and it was a perfect choice. Pep was very knowledgeable about the wine making process and the winery business. I recommend this tour company and would definitely use their services again in the future.

Our 3 hour tour with Pep was the highlight of our 3 day trip to beautiful San Francisco. My sister and mother and I always get together to celebrate our January birthdays. My sister and I have been to SF many times, but our mother had never been. Our mother was turning 71 and she has limited mobility and wouldn't be able to do much walking to see sites. Pep showed us a fantastic morning hitting all the highlights of the city in the cozy warm comfort of an immaculate vehicle. Pep is kind, intelligent , knowledgeable and has a good sense of humor. What we liked best about Pep's service is the ability to have a flexible tour. Pep picked us up at our hotel near Union Square promptly at the agreed time and at our request, ended the tour in Sausalito, where we decided to have lunch and shop. Thanks, Pep for helping to make our birthdays a wonderful celebration. I highly recommend Pep's quality services to anyone wanting to take a tour of the city. Why would anyone book a tour on a cold bus with 25 other people and see sites you may not have an interest in. For the same price you can have a tour that is customized, personal, friendly and comfortable!!

Pros: Friendly, comfortable, personal, accommodating, flexible, knowledgable.

Cons: Not one.

I contacted Pep to provide a private tour of the city for my family visiting from the east coast. We agreed on a rough outline of the various neighborhoods that I wanted them to see. Pep was knowledgable about the history, the architecture and the small tidbits of knowledge that I didn't know even after living here for a decade. As the day progressed and we were running out of time, Pep helped guide us in deciding which places were must sees and what could wait. I feel I know San Francisco in a completely new way, not the standard tourist presentation at all.

Four uf us arranged a private tour with Pep. This was done all the way from Trinidad & Tobago in the Caribbean and I wasn't sure what to expect. Pep was flexible and accomodating and really took our wishes and requests to heart in arranging this tour. She is well connected at the various wineries and this does allow special treatment! She also knows Napa, Sonoma, San Francisco and the surrounding areas so she is able to educate and advise you very well. I would highly recommend Pep and Allegro Private Tours and will be using them again when next we return to the area.

Pep was a fabulous tour guide and exposed our wine-inexperienced group to a variety of wineries that both taught and intrigued us. She is extremely knowledgable about the Napa and Sonoma Valley areas and has contacts at many of the wineries. I would defintitely recommend Allegro Private Tours to anyone.

Pros: affordable, convenient, comfortable

I arranged this all-day tour of SF, Muir Woods, Sausalito, etc. with Alegro Private Tours for my son and his family. Pep (the tour operator) consulted with me by phone and email beforehand to make sure it was just what they wanted. They came back from the trip last week and couldn't say enough about this tour. Pep "knew her stuff", was "kind and easy to listen to" and the tour van was "very comfortable". She picked them up at their hotel, took them to every imaginable corner of the city and its environs, seeing to it that they had an enjoyable lunch location with a magnificent city view. My credit card was charged efficiently and honestly. Everything was more than I expected. The level of service was outstanding. This was a private tour for just the three of them.

Pros: customized, reasonable price, go at your own pace

Cons: none

Pep provided the utmost comfort, professionalism, and knowledge about Napa Valley. She had contacts at most of the wineries we visited. She introduced us to some boutique wineries, off the beaten path, as we wanted. Overall great trip.

This was my second tour with Pep and she is the greatest guide ever. She allowed us lots of time for pictures and was so informative about everything. I will use her the next time we get to come to San Francisco!!! Mary Beth
