This guided cycling tour traces a route from Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco to the town of Sausalito. The ride begins at Fisherman's Wharf near the Cable Car Turnaround. Riders follow a local guide along the waterfront, passing Fort Mason, the Marina Green park, and Crissy Field, with views of the San Francisco Bay throughout the journey. The route continues through the Presidio of San Francisco, a former military base turned national park with homes and businesses, including Lucas Films. The tour includes a stop inside the Warming Hut, a 1909 wood-frame building now serving as a cafe and gift shop. It also visits Fort Point National Historic Site, a mid-19th-century fort preserved beneath the Golden Gate Bridge. The highlight is cycling across the Golden Gate Bridge itself, offering views of the bay, Alcatraz Island, and the Pacific Ocean. The guided portion ends in Sausalito, a seaside town known for waterfront dining, galleries, and shops. Participants can choose between a traditional pedal bicycle or a pedal-assist electric bike. The guided trip lasts about three hours, but bike rental is valid for 24 hours, allowing riders to explore more of San Francisco on their own. A map and route suggestions are included. An optional ferry ticket to return to San Francisco is available separately.
