The night cruise was fantastic! It really gives you a full tour of the Bay. Passing underneath the Golden Gate was amazing and the views were unmatched! Be mindful of when you go and prepare accordingly: the weather was cool and fog can roll in quickly, so definitely bring a jacket and a hat (even in June). Overall booking was great, the staff were friendly, and it was a great tour. I would definitely do this again when back in SF!

This sunset cruise was my absolute favorite part of my vacation to San Francisco. It offers gorgeous views of the city, bridges and so much more! I strongly encourage any travelers to share this experience.

We missed the Twilight Cruise by 10 minutes but were able to return the following morning for the one hour cruise before flying back to England in the afternoon. All staff were very helpful and friendly. The only criticism we have is the fact that the recorded commentary was not always loud enough to be heard over the music and engine noise. We realised too late that we could have had headphones but hadn’t been told this. Apart from this, a very enjoyable trip.

Asia (bar tender) was probably the nicest person we’ve met in a long time. Also the young woman taking our ticket before boarding. She was professional, genuine and enthusiastic. The ship capt was knowledgeable, energetic and friendly. It was a truly enjoyable experience, thank you. Staff too.

I loved it! The views were amazing! Loved how they had snacks and hot drinks on deck because it very much was needed.

We were looking for something to do as a family as a first time visit to San Francisco. The cruise takes you to the Golden Gate Bridge and around Alcatraz and there are beautiful views of the city.
