San Francisco - city tours suggestions

My husband has a bad knee (that is bothering him right now) and we've already done a lot of walking so we'd like a city tour recommendation that is not a walking one. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Duck Tour would be one. I have done it and it is very enjoyable except for the Quackers...

Our niece told us about a tour where you rent smart cars and the GPS guides you around town. Sorry, I don't have any other info.

We see those little gocars all over town - I personally think they're nuts, but the people driving them seem to be having fun!

We were in San Francisco in March and went on Dylan's City tour with Muir Woods. The tour starts at 10am and we finished about 3:30pm. This was our favorite day in San Francisco. There were about 12 people in our van-a small group is nice. We saw lot of the city that we would have never seen on our own and we loved Muir Woods. The trail there is paved and we stayed there a little over an hour. If your husband's knee is bothering him there you could just look around a little and have a snack in the cafe. There were several photo ops at Golden Gate Bridge and Twin Peaks. You can check out their website. The cost was about $65 each.

I'm sorry we didn't see your post nlg until this morning after returning. We didn't have access to our computer after my last post. That would have been a great tour. But, we did have a nice tour on the Hop On & Off tour bus.
