5.00Our tour guide (Robert) was on time to the pick up spot and was very funny and informative. The tour itself was great! Wish we had a little more time at Muir Woods but I understand that you have to allot time to the other activities. Overall 10/10 and would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the SF area.

5.00This is the perfect day tour to do in the Bay Area! We did the Alcatraz, Muir Woods and Sausalito tour with Dustin as our tour guide and I cannot recommend it enough! Dustin was a very funny and knowledgeable guide, who gave us some great recommendations for what to do in and around the Bay Area for the remainder of our trip. We were given plenty of time to fully enjoy each stop, and each location was truly beautiful.
Ideal Experience from Cruise Ship

5.00Ben was a great tour guide. He had great background info about the areas we drove through and what to expect/how far to go in Muir Woods. The tour was time sensitive and he managed the timing perfectly. Alcatraz also worked out just the way it was supposed to. We wouldn’t change a thing if we had it to do all over again. This was ideal for us being in port for a day from our cruise ship.
