A full day which allowed us to experience many of the things we wanted to see and do without having to deal with driving, parking or getting admission tickets. Small bus was comfortable with great driver and interesting companions. Highly recommend

Great day out. Our driver Charles was very informative and entertaining. I think 60 mins in Muir Woods would have been enough - we had 90 mins. We only had 60 mins in Sausalito, 90 mins would have been better as we had to have lunch which left little time to explore. We were then dropped off at Pier 33 for the Alcatraz trip. The organisation for this part of the trip was a shambles. We had not been provided tickets or instructions so we queued for ages to collect our tickets. They didn’t recognise the vouchers we had been furnished with! Finally we got our tickets but were then told we had to wait 90 mins for our ferry despite the ferry going every 30 mins! Once the trip started it was excellent! So overall a really good trip however had we been given the ferry tickets on the bus it would have been an excellent trip.

Absolutely loved going to Muir Woods was one of my trip highlights. Sausalito was overhyped. Tour guide was good.
