Heather was our driver and tour guide. She was knowledgeable and friendly! The Muir Woods were amazing…. A beautiful, peaceful and tranquil walk in the Redwood forest. Then off to Sausalito for a nice little walk along the water’s edge and of course a stop for an ice cream before taking the ferry back to fisherman’s wharf. A great day experience!
