      The tour concludes at approximately 6:00 pm, so unfortunately, it would not be possible to make a flight departing at 18:45 from San Francisco Airport. We recommend booking your departure early the next day to allow sufficient time for transfer and check-in. Please note that in this case you will need to add a post night accommodation which is made by reaching out to the hotel directly.
