Keith is awesome!

We had Keith as our tour guide and he was amazing. The trip included a trip to Muir woods which we had plenty of time in and then also saw three wineries and lunch! Then on the way back we got to stop and take some awesome pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge! Keith the whole time was awesome, funny and a local to San Francisco gave the BEST advice, tips and history! I HIGHLY recommend Keith and he made our tour even better!

Fabulous Fun

This tour was so much fun. Tara was an amazing guide with a lot of knowledge and great Dad jokes! After being on the big bus in the morning and then going on the Love Tour you really got to see some of the smaller streets and the fun side of San Francisco. Great introduction to the sights of San Francisco. Highly recommend this tour 🙂

Amazing experience! Would...

Amazing experience! Would definitely go again! Even though it was cloudy in the beginning, the clouds moved aside and we were able to see the most amazing sunset. There is room for inside or outside seating as well and some snacks and drinks offered. I loved it!

Fun way to learn all about the city

We had a BLAST on this tour. Learned so much about San Fran. Josh was our tour guide and he was the best. We are a family of five - wi he three kids aged 11, 13 and 15. Our 11 year old said this was “the best tour he’s ever done” thanks to Josh. He made it fun for the kids which was a huge plus. The van was adorable and was clean and felt safe. Highly recommend.

Great Sailing Boat Activity

This was the best sailing boat activity. We were so glad that we picked this company. The sailboat was clean, not too many people, and after getting launched we could sit up front. The ride was peaceful, beautiful, we sailed under the Golden Gate Bridge, the workers were kind and seemed to like their job. There wasn't too much noise which was refreshing - no loud music, etc. I would definitely recommend this activity.

Great experience with family seniors and kids alike

It was great. I had a really good time with my parents and my niece, and it was such a nice opportunity to spend quality time together, make memories, laugh, and simply enjoy each other’s company. If you want to experience the top of the boat, definitely bring layers because the wind is very strong, and something to tie your hair back!.

City Cruises San Francisco: Premier Brunch Cruise

Catherine_T, Jul 2026

Book this now!

We chose to book the bottomless mimosa brunch cruise one day on our girls trip - what a time we had! Well worth the money for such a great experience. The food was amazing , the glasses stayed full, and the staff were great! The captain even came around to introduce himself and took us up into the bridge for a tour. Highly recommend!

Muir Woods and Sausalito Tour (Return by Bus or Ferry)

Wonderful time on Muir Woods/Sausalito Tour

Wonderful trip to Muir Woods and Sausalito with our bus driver/ tour guide, George. George was a delight as he shared information and stories about the areas we drove through on our way to and from both locations. We learned so much about San Francisco and the bay area. My 84-year old mother and I decided to take the ferry option back to San Francisco and loved that as well.

2-Hour Sunset Sail on the San Francisco Bay

Foggy sunset sail cruise

Great experience. Just know for seniors, there is limited "normal" seating. Captain Dave was awesome, making sure we, as seniors, had the only bench seating. Dave and Mike were very friendly and open to questions. This is not a "guided" tour, so if you want to know something, ask! It was cold, windy and a little choppy, and we didn't see a sunset, but motored under the GG Bridge, then sailed back! Very enjoyable. Highly recommend!
