All of our tour guides are Bay Area Natives, which will help you understand what it’s like to grow up in SF and now live here as grown ups with our own families. You will enjoy an introduction to San Francisco on this 5 to 6 hour tour that includes Neighborhoods like Chinatown, North Beach, Pacific Heights and a trip across the Golden Gate Bridge to Muir Woods National Monument. You'll be driven around the city to see its diverse neighborhoods and geography, stopping several times for photo ops. At Muir Woods, admire the towering redwood trees, and visit the waterfront town of Sausalito for lunch (own expense). Works great for people coming from cruise ships.

4.00The fee should have been lower for what I got because lunch nor Muir Woods admission were included. There was not enough time to eat lunch and shop--it was one or the other. The tour guide, Sully, was very knowledgeable and made the trip fun.
OUTSTANDING tour of SF and John Muir Woods

5.00We had 2 tour guides, BOTH were OUTSTANDING. They were friendly, courteous, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. We saw all the sights in SF and then the Golden Gate Bridge from the fort at its base, the breathtaking Redwood forest in John Muir Woods, and had a pleasant lunch overlooking the harbor in Sausalito. I would definitely recommend it.
Excellent start to finish

4.00Our guide was knowledgeable & nice. It was hard to hear in the back of the bus. Felt rushed in Sausalito. You are responsible for your own transportation after Alcatraz.

4.00Great day travelling, our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Found the pick up spot easily. Great stops and photo opportunities along the way. If you’re going to Alcatraz BRING YOUR ID for everyone on the ticket. I ordered tickets for my wife and I and they weren’t going to let her on without it which was back at the hotel. Had to do unnecessary arguing and stress to get on the boat. The necessity of the ID was not stated on the ticket instructions.
