Muir Woods & Sausalito Half-Day Tour (Return by Bus or Ferry from Sausalito)

Overview

Take time out from San Francisco on a half-day trip to Muir Woods National Park and Sausalito.

This enthralling half-day trip takes you across the Golden Gate Bridge to the Bay Area's most popular National Park Monument to experience the magnificent views of the Giant redwoods during a 90' stop (entrance fee included).

Next, visit the beautiful coastal town of Sausalito, a gorgeous Mediterranean-style village with quaint shops and waterfront restaurants. If a one-hour stop in Sausalito isn't enough for you, you can extend your stay by upgrading your tour to include the Sausalito ferry back to San Francisco.

If you decide to come back by bus and are looking for possibilities to complete your other half-day, we offer you an upgraded option to save money, which includes a 4h Bike rental package from our partner Unlimited Biking (757 Beach Street, San Francisco, CA 94109).

Muir Woods National Monument

Muir Woods lies in the middle of the redwood's latitudinal region. The incredible diversity of flora and fauna can be daunting at times. Redwoods, Stellar’s jay, ladybugs, ancient horsetail ferns, and the banana slug are all a part of the hiking experience. We offer the maximum time allowed at Muir Woods for any tour operator (90'). We would love to offer more time at this beautiful National Park, but every tour operator has a limited parking time at the Park to allow access to all visitors.

Sausalito

A gorgeous Mediterranean-style village with quaint shops, art galleries, and waterfront restaurants. We will stop for 60 minutes. If you plan to extend your stay in Sausalito for more than one hour, we recommend booking the tour option "return by Ferry" so you can decide when to come back to San Francisco at your own pace. The Ferry docks at Pier 41, in the heart of Fisherman’s Wharf. If you book any of the Return by Bus options, you will be driven back to San Francisco and dropped off at the same locations you've been picked up: 478 Post. St or 2800 Leavenworth.

Tour was easy to find and started at 9:30 so we had plenty of time to have breakfast before it started. There are a number of places to eat in the area. We toured some highlights of the city and then crossed the Golden Gate Bridge for lunch in Sausolito, which is a quant little town. The restaurants are busy but very accommodating to tours. We finished the afternoon in Muir Woods with a short hike . It was incredible. Our tour guide was great and gave us a lot of information pertaining to what we were seeing.

We were recently on a Pacific coast cruise with a port stop in San Francisco. As we've been to SF many times, we wanted to do something different. We booked a Muir Woods/Sausalito tour with GrayLine. After a rough crossing from Santa Barbara to San Francisco, our ship arrived later than planned, which made us miss our tour. We took an Uber to the GrayLine office and was able to contact the bus driver for his location. We planned to meet Antonio at the Muir Woods parking lot to catch up with the tour. We actually beat him there! We weren't 100% after our rocky boat ride and my daughter noticed some wheelchairs behind the gift shop. We borrowed one (no charge) and headed down the path. If you go to the right, there are benches and places to sit along the way. Better path for mobility challenges. There's a cafe and gift shop a bit down the path but we didn't have time to check it out. The paths can be a tad bit bumpy in a wheelchair, which didn't help our still rocking stomachs. But we did go quite a ways down the paths to see the tall trees (tallest tree is 276 feet tall!) It's damp in the woods, as very little sunshine can make it through the tree canopy so dress accordingly and wear comfortable walking shoes. All too soon it was time to head back to the bus and over to Sausalito. We decided to forego the ferry, as we needed more 'land time' before returning to our ship. We sat by the water and enjoyed a quick sandwich from nearby before returning to SF. Our driver was just awesome. His bus was even decorated for the holidays!

Dear Diane R, Thank you for taking the time to post a review on your experience with us. Although I regret your cruise arrived late, I am happy to know you could finally join our tour! Is is a pleasure to know you had such a great time in Muir Woods through its majesty of the redwoods and also to know you enjoyed the charm of Sausalito village before taking the ferry back to the city. We hope to be your first choice every time you visit the area and to welcome you again soon. Kind regards, Manager at Gray Line of San Francisco
