Review of Doc Miles’ private San Francisco sunset photo tour, with Golden Gate views, hotel pickup, expert guidance, pricing, and tips.
“The party Loupe Brothers Photo Adventures L.L.C. dba Doc Miles Photography Tours did not show up and the photography work shop I have booked and paid did not happen. I am expecting a full refund ASAP. In fact, I have wasted two days in San Francisco plus hotel expenses and taxi between airport/hotel; worst, I lost an opportunity that I wanted to photo the golden gate when I purposely stopover in San Francisco.”
