About the Tours

The "Spirit of the Town" (SPOT), is a mobile and walking tour experience that offers an up-close and intimate dive into the diverse communities and culture of Oakland and the Bay Area.

 

For 2-6 hours, attendees are educated on everything from neighborhood history and districts to landmarks and food. Along the way, we stop and network with local retailers and restaurateurs to hear their perspectives and stories.

There are plenty of moments to snap pictures of our journey and share a few laughs with the group and guides on the 32-passenger tour bus while learning a lot about our city.

There’s something for everyone whether you’re new, visiting, or you’ve lived here your whole life.

The tour is powered by staff at:

Exceptional Community Connections,LLC

  • Featured Bay Area Cuisine from local favorite dining establishments in and around the Town.

  • A “Hella” Connected Swag Bag with power snacks, bottled water and promo materials, and samples from local companies.

Each Tour Includes:

  • A Personal "Exceptional" Tour Guide, an Oakland/East Bay Area Native, that will provide unique insights into the community and key places and people.

  • Luxury Tour Transportation with a Personal Driver

    *Souvenir T-Shirts available for purchase
