5.00Had a wonderful time on the bus with a very knowledgeable tour guide (thanks Doug!). Areas taken were very interesting and excellent photo views.
Tour was fine but guide seemed cranky

3.00Muir Woods is gorgeous and was worth the tour itself. Sausalito was nice for the views but it was so crowded there. And we really only had enough time to grab a quick bite (Copita is very good food). The bus AC seemed to be out so it got hot later in the day. The guide seemed annoyed with questions and didn’t let us on the bus after Muir Woods until he was ready to go, even though there was a large crowd of people waiting.
Amazing adventure going...

3.00This tour served its purpose. I was in town with my 14 year old son. We wanted an activity that allowed us to sleep in. Muir Woods was pretty. Sausalito was very charming. Don was our driver and he talked too much for my liking. I don’t like tour guides to be on the mic the whole time. I do like there are a few time options
