A pleasant intimate sail.

5.00Viator did a good job keeping me apprised of this trip. We met the captain and mate of this 41’, two-masted sailboat near the end of Pier 39 in San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf area. The captain went over a few safety rules and offered a few beverage choices before we motored out to the Golden Gate Bridge. From there we sailed along the northern part of the Bay and around Alcatraz before heading back to the dock. The weather was mostly overcast with a few sprinkles and light winds. Apparently that is more common with the 10 a.m. trip and winds pick up by the 12 o’clock trip. We and a second couple enjoyed conversation with the crew plus we watched passing ships, porpoises, birds, and some guy swimming with an accompanying boat.. Overall a very relaxing morning well worth the trip.
Must do activity in San Francisco

4.00Nice relaxing sailing experience! The crew were friendly and accomodating. Beautiful day despite the chilly SF weather. Good timing since we were the only ones in board. Enjoyed the relaxing sail!
Boring, poor communication

2.00The winds were light, so we just motored around. The light winds are typical for the 10am cruise. The boat is not comfortable. Definitely not worth the price. :(
Cancelled 30 min before departure

5.00Very fun and nice tour, went under the golden gate bride, past Alcatraz, saw the skyline and came in. Just under two hours. The Captain and First Mate were great.

5.00This was a great event for one of our corporate team events. We had a small group of 7 which made moving around on the boat easy and the experience extremely enjoyable!
