This experience begins with a single, approachable surf stop in Pacifica, then opens into a thoughtfully paced journey along the Northern California coast. Rather than following a rigid checklist, the day unfolds based on conditions, timing, and the natural rhythm of the coastline. Guests experience dramatic headlands, coastal wetlands, historic landmarks, and relaxed food and drink pauses along the way. Select stops are optional and curated. These may include a visit to a working goat farm in Pescadero, where guests can meet the animals and purchase locally made goat cheese and honey. The emphasis is not on covering as much ground as possible, but on experiencing the coast as locals do—unhurried, immersive, and grounded in place.

Start your day with a beginner-friendly morning surf session.

Big Sur Day Trip From San Francisco

We had a fun time on the Big Sur/Monterey/Carmel from San Francisco tour. Our guide’s name was Trevor and he was very personable and did a great job making sure we were able get enough time at all the stops. I definitely think this tour is worth booking since it’s a convenient way to see the amazing coastline outside of San Francisco without worrying about the driving!

My wife and I were in San...

My wife and I were in San Francisco for a short trip and booked this tour and had a fantastic time. Eric was great and very knowledgeable about SF. He was very patient and had some great conversations with him. It was a Tuesday and so it ended up being just my wife and I. Thanks again, Eric! Would certainly recommend!

Alcatraz Prison Tour and Golden Gate Bridge Bay Cruise

Dave_R, Jun 2026

Well worth doing

A bit confusing but that might be me this is run by 2 different tour operators one on pier 33 the other on 39 only a short walk between the 2 to be fair. Overall very good Alcatraz very much self guided and the Bay cruise commentary is very informative and you see a couple of sides of the golden gate bridge close up that are hard to see from land.

8hr Private Sonoma and Napa Wine Tour from San Francisco.XL SUV

Yaritza_S, Jun 2026

Excepcional

To be honest, the driver was just that a driver but he was polite; he would open the door for me whenever we stopped. I selected four wineries, and I believe they were truly the best choices. The tour was scheduled for eight hours, but we were charged for two extra hours a fee that included the driver's overtime pay. I didn't mind, as it really was an incredible experience, but I wanted to let others know that extra charges can apply. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this personalized tour because you get to choose the vineyards yourself, and you spend about an hour and a half at each location. I chose Domaine Carneros, Artesa, Sterling, and Castello di Amorosa... definitely don't miss the gondola experience at Sterling, and whitout a doubt the best wine is at Castello di Amorosa!!!

Fantastic tour of San Francisco area

Fantastic tour of San Francisco city. Our tour guide Randy was very knowledgeable and friendly. We feel that we’ve really seen the city and all the districts, learned the history and had a real San Francisco experience. The Alcatraz tour topped off the experience. We’ve had such an amazing day and highly recommended this trip.

A great tour of all of San Francisco! Our guide Anthony was very friendly and knowledgeable which made it a wonderful experience. Loved learning all about the city. The TukTuk was a fun experience, even in the rain, the heated seats and blankets made it enjoyable (though the seats are firm and it definitely can be a bumpy ride, but that's part of the quirky fun).

Awesanova!

Alcatraz was terrific. We were a little concerned we wouldnt make the ferry in time and they said no problem that they would honor our tickets on the next ferry trip. We also upgraded to the E bikes for the day and had an outstanding time going over the Golden Gate Bridge, and into Sausalito for a wonderful meal at Soma and returned our bikes about 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

Shhh! Sacred Sanctuary and the Mighty Redwoods Trees!!!

It was a very hectic but magical Sunday in August 2025! Just landed and had an early check-in at my hotel. Did a quick change in wardrobe and off to my adventure in Muir Woods and Sausalito! Peter, our guide was prompt and respectful to all. A jovial, precise on details, and a pleasant guide. Our tour were friendly and tour went smoothly. Muir Woods turned out to be a delight! I was a little worried if I would lost in the forest, but it was calm, serene and the map and signs were easy to understand. It felt magical when inside this wondrous natural sanctuary. I felt at peace and the redwoods are strong, sturdy, reddish in vigour and vitality. Very unique, luscious and magnificent! I felt something within... The Redwoods may have a healing effect... I also enjoyed a briefing from the forest ranger. She was insightful about redwood trees. I left Muir Woods, feeling like I had uncovered the mystery and secrets within. Yes, this is a truly soul defining experience for me. Thank you! ❤️😘

Alcatraz Ticket + Ferry with North Beach Walking Tour + Options

Wharf, Alcatraz, bay cruise

Our wharf tour guide was late and did not have a sign letting us know who he was. In fact he was not easy to locate at all. One lady from our tour was running around everywhere frantically looking for him because she was afraid she missed him. The only way I knew who he was, was because as he took his jacket off I saw the words experience on his jacket sleeve. He was very knowledgeable and he took us to a lot of places, however, u could not ask questions. When my husband tried the guide was very snappy and rude. He told us how to get our Alcatraz tickets, but he was wrong. So that was an ordeal to get them. But, once we got them, Alcatraz was great. My only complaint about the Alcatraz tour was the headphones section was a little bit confusing. It was still beautiful there, the park guides were funny and knowledgeable. We loved the bay tour. That was great. Lots to learn, beautiful views, it was great!
