Great view of the San Francisco skyline, Alcatraz and of course the Golden Gate Bridge. Lovely sunset, despite poor weather during the day. Be aware that you need to wrap up warm if you like to be out on deck, although you can sit inside if you prefer. Very nice substantial buffet. Everything was very efficient. It's a great way to stand back and admire the view..

This was a great cruise, the boat was not crowded, it takes you aroiund the bay and under the golden gate bridge. Buffet food is sreved and they have live entertainment in the way of a guy with a guitar, who was pretty good. I would definately reccomend his trip, just make sure you have enough layers as although the day had been nice, it was quite breezy when i went, and i was rather cold and wish i had also taken my coat so that i could have spent more time outside.

We enjoyed our San Francisco Bay Sunset Cruise and it was good value for money. You get to see a lot of sights as the sun sets, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Angel Island and San Francisco itself. The evening we went was a bit disappointing as it was really cold so it wasn't much fun out on deck, but we got some amazing photographs of the sights so it was worth it. The Golden Gate Bridge looked amazing when it was lit up at night, as did Alcatraz. The buffet that was supplied wasn't great, there were sandwiches and freshly baked cookies, but you had to get in there quick as as soon as the food was put out people queued up and filled their plates and after about half an hour there wasn't much left!!
