I really enjoyed the half day Muir Woods tour to Sausalito. Lars was a great guide, friendly and punctual and provided great commentary on the neighbourhoods we drove through, across the bridge and on to Muir Woods. Even though I've been to San Francisco quite a few times, I still learned lots of new things! Before we got to Muir Woods, Lars gave us lots of information about the area and when we got there we had almost a full 2 hours to walk around the woods on our own - note though, we each had to pay $10 admission to enter the woods, it's the new Muir rules. It was really beautiful. After the woods, he drove us back to Sausalito where you could get the ferry or drive back with Lars into the city. If we headed back into the city, we had about 45 minutes in Sausalito which was plenty of time for a quick bite or a stroll up and down the main street. Lars was kind enough to drop me off exactly where I wanted to go in Fisherman's Wharf which was much appreciated. The tour was exactly what I wanted with Muir Woods, a taste of Sausalito and a value added tour guide!

Marie was our tour driver. She provided great commentary. Tour was let down by inconsiderate passengers late for pick up and late back from the Muir Woods. We toured the Woods, Cline Vineyard in Sonoma, Sonoma itself and a vineyard in Napa. After crossing the Golden Gate Bridge we stopped near the Presidio for photos. Overall it was an excellent tour and we thank Marie for her professionalism in the face of some really inconsiderate & stupid tourists.
