Small Group Redwoods, California Coast & Sausalito Day Trip from San Francisco

Small Group Redwoods, California Coast & Sausalito Day Trip from San Francisco

Overview

We begin the day at Armstrong Woods, where you will walk among the oldest and largest trees on the planet. The park has 1500 year old, 300-foot Redwoods beauties that offer an awe-inspiring stroll through one of the most unique forests in Northern California. We purposefully choose NOT to go to the more known Muir Woods, which is overrun with crowds and prevents our guests from fully enjoying the majesty of the Redwoods. Instead, we go to Armstrong, which has older and taller trees, and far less crowds for a more private experience.

We will travel to a small timber town where we will purchase lunch and, weather permitting, go picnic at the beach as we travel down the spectacular California coastline.

The day ends in Sausalito — a lovely town on the San Francisco Bay with magical views of the city. Then, you can decide if you want to return with us or take a 30-minute ferry ride back to San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf.

The Good: Despite the title of this review, Brian (tour guide) made this trip worthwhile and enjoyable with his energy and vast knowledge of the sights. We couldn't really check out the coastline due to the bad weather. So Brian called and audible gave us extra time to explore and have a longer lunch.. Now he may have dropped the ball on the food recommendations in Sausalito, but made up for it with his ability to take pictures (Still waiting for the group photo). This tour was so fun that me, my wife & another member of the tour almost got lost within the forest (LOL). The weather cleared up and it picture taking time. This tour was a blast and the van wasn't full so that was good. The Bad: If I recall correctly, the title states that we would be traveling in a "luxury" van. This van was far from any type of luxury van I've ridden in before and it was a little on the dirty side. The Ugly: Speaking of the van... Midway into the trip as the rain was coming down hard, the van started to leak pretty bad where my wife was sitting. Luckily there were empty seats in front of us and we moved up. Between the cleanliness, the leak and misrepresentation of the van I felt I need to take a away a point. Other than that I definitely recommend this tour and Brian as a guide.

The tour was amazing. We had a ton of fun and Steven was a great tourguide. He went above and beyond to give us a nice trip. We got some amazing pictures and saw some beautiful scenery. We went to the Armstrong forest and it was really amazing. It almost felt like we had the place to ourselves.

What a wonderful day we had - when they say small group, ours was only four people (I've had tours cancelled at the last minute with more people). Pick up at hotel at the time specified and a great day was had - with Phil providing an interesting commentary throughout. We had chosen this trip to see the redwoods without the clouds of Muir Woods - perfect, but were then treated to a pick-nick on an enchanted beach (the fog had not yet lifted and the photos are incredible). Highly recommend.
