About This Tour

City and Muir Woods Tour

Combining the City Tour and the Muir Woods/Sausalito Tour makes this “combo tour” a full day of fun.

City Tour

You will see The City in a custom touring Minivan with one of the best tour operators in the City. This is the only City tour that goes across the Golden Gate Bridge to the Marin Headlands.

Your guide will make the present and past come alive while showing you all San Francisco has to offer, including the following attractions:

Fisherman's Wharf - our most popular tourist destination.
Chinatown's unique and wonderful shops, both on the main streets and along the little alleys.
Nob Hill - where the railroad barons built their mansions

The Painted Ladies - beautiful Victorian Homes
North Beach - exotic cabarets, coffee houses where the beat generation met, and wonderful Italian food and pastries.
Haight Ashbury - the focal point of the Summer of Love
Barbary Coast - the heart of Gold Rush San Francisco.
Financial District - home of the Pacific Stock Exchange. Palace of Fine Arts - a striking Art Deco structure, the only remnant of the 1915 Pan American Exposition.
Pacific Heights - where millionaire's mansions gaze in haughty splendor to the Bay.
Golden Gate Park - one of America's largest urban parks. A gem complete with flora from around the world, lakes, museums, walking trails and more.

Plus… the Civic Center, the Presidio, Union Street, the Pacific Ocean, the Golden Gate Bridge and much more!

Muir Woods

Just outside San Francisco, two wonderful experiences await you. Muir Woods is a virgin stand of Coast Redwoods - among the oldest and tallest trees on earth. Nothing can compare with the sense of grandeur and majesty you will feel as you walk under the canopy of trees thousands of years old.

A short distance away, with a stunning view of San Francisco across the Bay is Sausalito - an artist colony whose waterfront and hillside homes may remind you of a village on the Italian Riviera.

Your experienced and friendly guide/driver will pick you up at your hotel in one of our mini vans customized for touring. We'll drive north over the Golden Gate Bridge through the beautiful rolling hills of Marin County. You will be amazed at the picturesque rural vistas so close to San Francisco.

Soon we'll arrive in Muir Woods.

You will have 45 minutes to relax and stroll through the redwoods, along the stream, perhaps seeing the Steller Blue Jays, Black Tailed Deer or Pacific Salmon . 

Take a deep breath! The air here is cool, clean and invigorating.

Next, it's on to Sausalito ! 

You'll have 30 minutes for browsing the delightful shops or grabbing a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants. 

You may walk along the shore and watch the multitude of sailboats gracefully swooping across the Bay. 

If you wish to spend more time in Sausalito, you can take the ferry back to either Fisherman's Wharf or the Ferry Terminal at the end of Market street. 

For those who don't stay, your guide will take you back across the Golden Gate Bridge and deliver you to your hotel - ready for more fun in this wonderful City by the Bay!
