Alcatraz, Muir Woods, SF city tour, Golden Gate - First off, the communication from the tour agency was exceptional(we had a hiccup with ticket scheduling for our ferry ride to Alcatraz, and the agency handled that issue for us day of). Our tour guide, Per, was very punctual, knowledgeable, and very inviting with our group. Would 10/10 recommend the tour, we hit almost all of San Francisco in 4 hours!!! Great pricing as well!!! Thank you Per!!!

Muir Wods and Sausalito - Even through rain, the Muir Woods is majestic and amazing! We also had a great city tour and learned a lot about San Francisco and the cultural parts of the city. We chose to get off and spend time in Sausalito-which was fabulous. We spent time visiting with a couple who had lost their home in Palisade a year ago. It was a day to remember!

Only one day to see the city? This tour is for you. - We only had one day to see San Francisco. Our tour guide Per packed so much into this one-day tour, from the GG Bridge, to a hike in Muir Woods, to lunch in Sausalito overlooking the bay. Incredibly, we had a clear sunny day in February and our views were stunning. The tour drops you at the pier, where we caught the ferry to Alcatraz. Per was a teacher in a past life and his commentary was both informative and entertaining. He also provided great San Francisco movie trivia along with terrific music. I highly recommend this tour.
