Great tour to see both GG and Bay Bridges along with a pass by of Alcatraz. Beautiful weather. Staff were accommodating of my mom’s disability. Highly recommend for a nice day tour to view the beauty of San Fran from the water

Great tour of the SF Bay and the tour audio was the icing on the cake. We enjoyed seeing the Golden Gate Bridge and received a bonus viewing all the kite e-surfers!!

The trip was well worth the time and cost. The crew was friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were the roomiest and cleanest I’ve ever encountered in a ship of this size. We were not able to climb the stairs to sit on top that day. The downstairs seating was comfortable, and the views outside good. I would recommend being sure to request the listening devices to hear the narration. We did not see them when we boarded and only noticed them when the upstairs passengers came down and returned theirs. There was a loudspeaker on the lower deck and we could hear most of the time, but sometimes the engines were too loud to hear over them. We have a good experience and were very glad we went.

This cruise is really worthwhile doing. From my perspective using a cane and not being able to walk far this cruise was perfect. Saw everything we needed and commentary was perfect. The staff were so kind and friendly

The tour was amazing. We had so much fun touring the Bay Area. My only complaint was the top floor of the boat was infested with flies and they were very bothersome. Tried our best to not let them ruin the amazing experience
