On your way you will pass by The Palace of Fine Arts was built for Panama-Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco in 1915 to celebrate the completion of the Panama Canal, but it was widely seen in the city as an opportunity to showcase its recovery from the 1906 earthquake.

Golden Gate Bridge

Muir Woods National Monument

Enjoy the natural beauty of Coastal Sequoias! Muir Woods National Monument is a National Monument named after naturalist John Muir. It is located on Mount Tamalpais near the Pacific coast in SW Marin County and is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, just 12 miles (19 km) north of SF. It protects 554 acres (224 ha) of which 240 acres (97 ha) are old growth coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) forests, the tallest living objects on Earth. Due to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, the forest is regularly shrouded in a coastal marine layer fog. It remains cool and moist year-round with daytime temperatures averaging between 40 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit (4 to 21 °C). Millions of years ago ancestors of redwood and sequoia trees grew throughout North America. Today, the Sequoia sempervirens can be found only in a narrow, cool coastal belt from Monterey County, California, in the south to Oregon in the north.

Marin County

Ride from Muir Woods to Sausalito. Listen to the history of Sausalito on your way to this beautiful town just north of the Golden Gate Bridge!

Sausalito Boardwalk

Visit Sausalito! Amazing views of the bay, downtown, and Bay Bridge! Always on the top of the most beautiful little cities in America! Strategically located on Pacific Coast HW, it was home to Ferries, running to Hyde Str. Pier in SF. During WWII it was home to a major Marinship shipyard where the Liberty ships were built. In the late 1960s, the houseboat communities occupied the waterfront along and adjacent to Sausalito's shore. If you want to spend more time there, you can take the Ferry back to the city, it costs about $15 extra. Great Seafood Restaurants! Art Galleries!

This is one attraction that you should not pass up! Although the closer we got to Muir Woods, the scarier the road became (I'm not used to curvy roads) I would not have missed my visit to Muir Woods for anything. It was amazing and I was in awe of the beauty that I saw that day. Included in the trip was a visit with time for shopping or lunch in Salsilito. We opted to take the ferry back to the city instead of the tour van so we could explore more of Salsilito.
