Meet the Captains!

Duck Rogers

Duck Rogers is our newest Duck Captain. Known for his parrot and bubble gun, Duck Rogers' tours are sure to impress. Expect to dance the Macarena and quack along to a variety of songs while learning San Francisco's colorful history. Roger has traveled all over the world and has a 70-pound rescue German Shepherd named Rocky, who is a therapy dog. You wont see Rocky on the Duck though, all dogs (unless they're service animals).

Did You Know?

The country's first Chinese immigrants came to San Francisco in 1848. In an act typical of San Francisco's mixing of cultures, the Japanese Hagiwara family invented "Chinese" fortune cookies at Chinatown's Ross Alley fortune cookie factory, a Rube Goldberg-like contraption turns them out by the dozens. Don't miss Ross Alley on your Ride the Ducks tour. It's a small street, but a very important one!

Restaurant Review - Hard Rock Cafe

From the Grateful Dead to Sly and the Family Stone, you can uncover San Francisco's legendary musical lineage while enjoying a filling meal at the Hard Rock Cafe San Francisco. In the 1960s, political protests, the infamous "summer of love" and of course, the ground-breaking music scene all marked San Francisco as an important and pivotal locale for culture. And take it from us—this city with a past still makes the scene, now. Whether we're talking foot-stomping live music or another 6.5 on the Richter, San Francisco truly rocks! Back in the day hippies used to congregate at Haight-Ashbury, but these days the rockinest spot is the HRC San Francisco.

Where else can you eat the tastiest burger in town, trippin' out on groovy rock artifacts and treasures, while jamming to the most outta sight tunes? Our mind-blowing memorabilia collection featuring great locals is far out, man! Grateful Dead, Faith No More, Jefferson Airplane, Journey, Santana, Sly and the Family Stone, Vince Guaraldi these are just a few of the local bands that made it big. Now you can get in on big action yourself with the Cafe that's rocking San Francisco! Here at Pier 39 we've got fab views of Alcatraz, the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, the San Francisco Bay, and the City skyline.

Crabby is a kind, hilarious, informative tour guide who can be spotted wearing glittery Quackers designed by his granddaughter. Don't miss his tour before he migrates to Mexico again!
