Golden Gate Bridge Muir Woods Sausalito with Optional Alcatraz

Tina_G, Oct 2026

Fabulous from start to finish!

Brandon was the absolute best guide! We were running late to the meeting point & he was gracious enough to wait for us. He was very funny & extremely knowledgeable about San Fancisco history. He made our day trip so much fun! We would recommend this tour to everyone who wants to visit multiple sites all in one excursion, and not just because the sites are amazingly beautiful, but because SF Excursions was fabulous from start to finish! FYI - opt for the Alcatraz Tour add-on...totally worth it! ❤️ New Mexico Guests

Muir Woods and Sausalito Small Group Tour

Michelle_H, Oct 2026

Interesting!

The Woods were magical! Our tour guide, Ben, gave us good information about the areas we’re traveling through along the way. The stops at the Bridge were great photo opts! The length of time spent in each area was just enough. Ben gave recommendations in Sausalito. He was helpful and fun, despite having some interesting characters in our group. 😉 Thanks Ben for a good experience!

Napa and Sonoma Wine Country Full-Day Tour from San Francisco

Alexis_C, Oct 2026

10/10! Had the best time!

We went for the day tour for my mom’s 60th and it was perfect. The driver George was hilarious and so informative. All of the wineries were so different from 4 generations family ran to new and modern. The lunch stop in sanoma was also amazing. It’s nice with so many options in Napa to have a driver just drop you off and pick you up at quality wineries. We had a spectacular time!

San Francisco Bay Cruise

Le_C, Oct 2026

Amazing staff

Our boat cruise experience was amazing! The staff were so helpful, kind and accommodating, especially since we had our elderly mother with us on a wheelchair. They went above and beyond to help wheel her on and off the boat. Making sure she was comfortable and safe throughout the experience. We are truly grateful to the staff for their kindness and excellent service. Highly recommended!

San Francisco Love Tour

The Levy Family San Francisco Tour

My family including my husband, daughter and 88 year old mother and I thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour tour of the San Francisco area. The tour was in an intimate retro VW van. Our tour guide Cyrus was very friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable about the San Francisco history and neighborhoods. We highly recommend this tour and tour guide.

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

colleen_o, Oct 2026

Wonderful Memory

The tour was excellent, narrated history and other details along the way. Excellent overall. Just be aware if you elected ferry return, the Blue and gold ferry is only operating only two trips a day a very restricted schedule. While the other ferry does get you back to SF, it returns to I believe pier 1.

Napa and Sonoma Premium Small Group Wine Tour from San Francisco

Diane_S, Oct 2026

Great tour and guide!

We had a wonderful day touring Sonoma and Napa Valley with our driver, Ron, along with 10 other passengers. Ron went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a comfortable and enjoyable experience. He texted us the night before the tour to give us a heads-up about the weather and confirm the pickup plan, which was greatly appreciated. Throughout the day, Ron was extremely knowledgeable—not only about the area and its many highlights, but also about the winemaking process. He shared interesting information as we traveled to and from Sonoma and Napa, making the drive just as enjoyable as the tour itself. Ron was professional, personable, and attentive to everyone in the group. We truly enjoyed our day and would highly recommend Ron to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and thoughtful guide for a Sonoma and Napa Valley tour.

San Francisco Golden Gate Bay Cruise

Bridgette_A, Sept 2026

We travelled from NY just to experience SF Bay

We parked in pier 39 parking garage a few hours before our cruise and enjoyed the area. Lots of things for families with pre teen age kiddos to enjoy prior to departure. We boarded our boat and received a wonderful naration of the local area landscape from the bays point of view.

San Francisco City Lights Cruise

Richard_O, Sept 2026

A must do. Plan for the...

A must do. Plan for the weather. Don’t let a little chill keep you from seeing the most beautiful sunset and the coastline….and of course the city lights. Layer up as needed. I would do this again on the next trip. Get your beverage first because the line gets long and you don’t want to miss the view.
