Do you want to get time away from the busy city? Relax and take it easy in the beautiful nature of Muir Woods and the town Sausalito and sail around the impressive Alcatraz Island!
About the Tour and Boat Tour
The tour takes you across the Golden Gate Bridge and through the mountains of Marin County, where you have a wonderful view of the bay of San Francisco and the villages where the Miwok once lived. The first stop is at Muir Woods International Monument, where old Giant Redwoods trees tower above Redwood Creek. After this, you'll drive to the beautiful coastal town of Sausalito, a city with Mediterranean style and many shops, art galleries and waterfront restaurants.
Don't worry if you don't have tickets for Alcatraz Island, because the boat tour will simply take you around it! You get on board at Pier 39 and sail to the island while listening to interesting stories about the many prisoners who tried to escape the island. You sail twice around the island, so that you can see everything and enjoy the beautiful skyline. Keep an eye on the water, because you might see a porpoise swimming by!
