Detailed Itinerary

The journey, in full

Take time away from San Francisco on a half­ day trip to Muir Woods and Sausalito. Travel across the Golden Gate Bridge and through the rugged coastal mountains of Marin County. Experience the magnificent views of the San Francisco Bay and valleys where the Coastal Miwok once lived. Our first stop is Muir Woods National Monument, where ancient groves of Giant Redwoods (Sequoia Sempervirens) tower over Redwood Creek. Our tour allows you more time in Muir Woods than the amount of time offered by any tour company! Next, visit the beautiful coastal town of Sausalito, a gorgeous Mediterranean-style village with a quaint shop, art galleries, and waterfront restaurants. Back in San Francisco at Pier 39, embark on a 60-minute Bay Cruise past the famous Pier 39 sea lions and along San Francisco’s historic waterfront, revealing the city’s fascinating skyline. After you sail under the Golden Gate Bridge, you’ll circle Alcatraz Island and see every angle of this infamous prison island. Other attractions include Angel Island, the Ellis Island of the West, and the magnificent skyline of San Francisco. This comfortable Bay tour has both indoor and outdoor seating with full narration describing major landmarks as you sail by them. Keep an eye on the water. You may catch a glimpse of harbor porpoises swimming by. They have returned to the Bay!
