Overview

This small-group tour lasts about 7 to 8 hours and covers three main Bay Area attractions using a luxury Mercedes Sprinter van. The trip crosses the Golden Gate Bridge, offering views of the bridge and surrounding landmarks. The itinerary includes free time at Muir Woods National Monument, where visitors walk on an easy trail among 1,000-year-old Redwood trees. Next, the tour stops in Sausalito for about an hour, allowing time to explore the town, visit art galleries, have lunch, and shop for souvenirs. The final part of the tour is a visit to Alcatraz Island. Participants board a round-trip ferry from Pier 33 to the island and receive an admission ticket plus a headset for the award-winning Cellhouse Audio Tour, which narrates the prison’s history and escape attempts. Tour departure options affect the route and timing. The 8:30am departure from 488 Post Street begins with Muir Woods and Sausalito before Alcatraz. The 9:10am departure from Pier 33 starts with Alcatraz, then visits Muir Woods and Sausalito. The 12:50pm departure from Pier 33 visits Muir Woods and Sausalito first and then Alcatraz at night, which includes a sunset cruise, cell door demonstrations, and expert talks. Night tour participants receive additional narrated exhibits and demonstrations on the island.
