See San Francisco, Muir Woods, Sausalito, and Alcatraz in one busy day with a local guide, small group, and comfortable minibus.
“We enjoyed the tour but we were not informed of Muir Woods being closed until we boarded for the tour. Instead, our driver, who was great, drove us around to ransom spots (one of which we visited on our own the previous day) and a creepy alley was part of the tour (graffiti). He did his best but too bad they didn’t just take us all to Alcatraz or a place more interesting than all of the little odd places.”

Review of San Francisco’s 4-hour Grand City Tour, with Golden Gate Bridge stops, Twin Peaks views, guide tips, costs, upgrades, and practical advice.
“We enjoyed this bus tour which was a good overall view of a larger part of the city. We wish we could have arranged this tour for earlier in our stay because it did give us ideas of where to come back to in order to stay longer. We covered a lot of area on the bus so the stops were short and a bit rushed. Our guide, Michele, was knowledgeable and made the trip a very nice tour.”

Review the San Francisco Super Saver, a full-day coach tour covering city landmarks, Muir Woods redwoods, and Sausalito for $155.
“The tour itself was good you get to see a lot of the city and Muir Woods is amazing but I found the organization of the tour to be very poor compared to other tours I have taken throughout the USA and Europe. We were told we would be picked up from our hotel at 8 am - the bus was 20 mins late I understand that it happens sometimes but a call or text would have been nice as we waited outside in the cold for 30 mins and were beginning to think we were going to miss our tour and the bus was completely different colours from what…”

See San Francisco’s top sights by coach, then take the ferry to Alcatraz for its famous cellhouse audio tour and skyline views.
“City tour was good as they took us to places we properly would not have seen on our own. Alcatraz was great interesting and an experience but only that we needed to wait 1.5 hours for the ferry over as our city tour finished at 12 and the ferry to Alcatraz was at 1.30. We had no way of getting there earlier. Our ticket stated 1.30 and we were not allowed to get the next ferry. It was a cold day, so standing around was not fun!!! If it was in summer or other seasons of the year maybe but in winter not such a great idea.”
