Explore the ancient groves of coastal redwoods in Muir Woods National Monument alongside an expert guide on a half-day tour. Then discover the charming streets of Downtown Sausalito on a relaxed half-day tour.
After a pick-up from a central San Francisco hotel, head north over the bridge and into the Marin Headlands. If the fog is clear, you might get a chance to stop and take some pictures of the bridge up close.
When you arrive in Muir Woods, take an hour and a half to roam through this ‘living museum’ where you can glimpse the towering trees that used to dominate the west coast from Santa Barbara to Washington.
Following your exploration of Muir Woods, hop back in the coach for a quick ride over to Sausalito. Enjoy a 15-20 minute, narrated in-coach tour through the beautiful seaside Mediterranean-style town, and then some free time to walk around.
After about 45 minutes in Sausalito, hop back in the coach for a trip back across the Golden Gate Bridge, or opt for a ferry ride back to San Francisco. You'll be dropped back off at your pick-up point.
This half-day tour is a great way to see all the highlights of the northern San Francisco Bay in a limited amount of time.Â

Timing, transportation, activity, perfect! Lovely and very professional driver.
Good combination of the individual stations.
Muir Woods is an absolute must-see! I recommend that the tour organizers extend the visit to Sausalito by an hour, as one hour is not enough time to grab a coffee, browse a couple of shops, and take a leisurely stroll.
Tour was fantastic! Lawton was an excellent guide who shared so much history and interesting details of San Francisco and Muir Woods
Great tour. The guide was super knowledgeable and friendly. He gave great recommendations of places to visit. Learned a lot about the history of California. Muir Woods was beautiful and Sausalito was picturesque and stunning.
The tour guide, Lawton, was great! He was super knowledgeable and was extremely helpful throughout the process. He did everything he could to make us comfortable throughout the trip. There wasn't enough time to see everything without feeling rushed. The first stop was the GGB vista point. We only got 15 minutes there. It's only enough to take a couple of pictures because you have to wait in line as others are taking pictures. At Muir woods, we only got 1 hour to go through everything. The tour information on GYG said we would have 90 minutes, but we only got 1 hour at the Muir Woods, so everything felt rushed once we arrived. Then we went to Sausalito and we had enough time to roam around and get ice cream. I wish the tour was just a little bit longer; perhaps an additional 30-45 minutes. That way, there's enough time to roam around the Muir Woods and the GGB Vista Point.
Really good trip, got to see a lot in a short amount of time. Lawton was our guide. Had great history of the San Francisco area and was a chill guy. Gave some local food recommendations. Very accommodating.
Lawton was an amazing guide ! This activity is a great way to discover Muir Woods and Sausalito in a half day. Completely worth it.
Guide was the best guide I ever had in decades of traveling.
