Overview

Take time out from San Francisco on a half-day trip to Muir Woods National Park and Sausalito.

This enthralling half-day trip takes you across the Golden Gate Bridge to the Bay Area's most popular National Park Monument to experience the magnificent views of the Giant redwoods during a 90' stop (entrance fee included).

Next, visit the beautiful coastal town of Sausalito, a gorgeous Mediterranean-style village with quaint shops and waterfront restaurants. If a one-hour stop in Sausalito isn't enough for you, you can extend your stay by upgrading your tour to include the Sausalito ferry back to San Francisco.

If you decide to come back by bus and are looking for possibilities to complete your other half-day, we offer you an upgraded option to save money, which includes a 4h Bike rental package from our partner Unlimited Biking (757 Beach Street, San Francisco, CA 94109). Fall in love with all San Francisco has to offer as you pedal around and explore the area at your own pace.

Highlights

  • Choice of morning or afternoon departure
  • Tour is wheelchair accessible

Nice and easy half day trip. Our driver Tony was very entertaining and helpful with tips about SF. The woods were peaceful and worth the drive.

This was a good getaway from the city that didn’t eat up the whole day. Really entertaining and informative driver. The woods were very beautiful and peaceful.

Woods are beautiful! Bus was an easy way to get there and we liked the option to return by ferry giving us more time in Sausalito. Definitely recommend!

Really enjoyed this trip as we were in the smaller minibus so stopped on the San Francisco side of the Golden Gate Bridge which afforded much better views and photos.Muir woods was beautiful, but could have done with more time there to fully explore all the trails.Couple of hours in Sausalito was just right for a bit to eat and a wander around.Took the ferry back to San Francisco which was great.

Our driver was excellent! Provided fun and interesting information during the tour. Was super friendly and offered an unscheduled stop that added to our tour! The entire experience was amazing!

I cannot recommend this tour enough!! Tony was our driver/guide and he was awesome! He is so knowledgeable and friendly. He truly made this an exceptional experience. Muir Woods is a must see if you’re in the area. The walking path is mostly flat and either a widen walking path or a paved path. There are more difficult, off the beaten path trails if that’s more your thing. This tour would be absolutely doable if you had a wheelchair. There is a small gift shop with coffee, pastries and of course gifts. There are bathrooms at the gift shop as well. The tour also stopped at the Golden Gate Bridge and allowed opportunity to get off the bus to take pictures. Sausalito was a cute little town for lunch. We opted to take the ferry back to SF which was perfect. This was a great tour!

I loved the Muir Woods and we had plenty of time to explore the place. There were few routes we could take but if you are like me and like to stop and take a lot of pictures, taking the short or mid-range route is better. I must have taken hundreds of pictures, amazing nature. Our tour guide John was also really knowledgeable and on time. Sausalito was also really cute.
