Jerry has an extensive knowledge of the history of the Bay Area and shares his expertise generously. He is friendly, kind, and quick to offer to take your group’s photo during a scenic stop! Highly recommend!

Micheal was a great host and I appreciated that I could be picked up at my hotel. The drive wasn’t too long and Micheal had lots of details about the local history. The Muir Woods was amazing but a bit colder than I anticipated so I ended up having to buy a sweatshirt up at the gift shop. Bring a good jacket. The redwoods were absolutely breathtaking. Saulsalito was a gorgeous little harbor town. We only had an hour in Saulsalito so if I had to do it again I would forgo the tourist shops and sit down at a nice restaurant instead. I highly recommend this half day tour and would definitely do it again.

Great trip, our tour guide, Michael was great. Very informative. Got us right into the park with no issues, gave us suggestions for trails. Also liked how it wasn’t a huge bus, it was a small tour so we didn’t really have to wait on a lot of people

Very nice tour. The information Michael gave very complete and interesting. If you wish to stay in Sausalito and took the afternoon tour make sure you take the last ferry to return because the last departures are early

Muir Woods and Sausalito are both fantastic destinations. Scheduling a tour reduces some of the logistics but you tour can be frustrating due to very slow driving speed and non-stop commentary from guide. Would have liked to have more effective transportation between stops allowing longer visit times. Next time I will rent a Turo.

Everything was great. Michael, our guide, was awesome. He was able to pick us up at our hotel right on time and had a lot of information about the San Francisco, Muir Woods, and Sausalito. He was also able to drop us off in Fisherman's Wharf so we could make our Alcatraz tour. Trip fee and time in Muir Woods and Sausalito is comparable to all of the other similar tours. Would book again.

Muir woods was an amazing experience. Michael was a wonderful tour guide. I just wish we could have spent more time at Muir Woods to explore.

This was an amazing trip. Muir Woods is always great. The host was very knowledgeable and provided lots of insight and had great stops along theway to show us other parts of San Francisco.

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Muir Woods is absolutely stunning and being able to walk among those giant redwood trees was something I will never forget. Pictures truly do not do it justice. It felt peaceful, quiet, and almost sacred walking through the forest. The entire experience was very well organized and easy. Our guide was friendly and shared interesting information along the way, which made the drive enjoyable too. Sausalito was such a fun stop. It is a beautiful little waterfront town with amazing views of the bay. We loved walking around, taking pictures, and just soaking it all in. If you are visiting San Francisco, I highly recommend this tour. It is a wonderful way to see the redwoods and experience a charming coastal town without having to worry about transportation or planning the trip yourself. It ended up being one of our favorite experiences.
