Muir woods, sausalito, and alcatraz were all beautiful. I appreciate the fun facts of the tour guide and the trivias. had fun listening to him. 1hr in sausalito was quick. wish we couldve spent at least 2hrs but overall the tour was nice. suggestion would be to put in the itinerary details the pick up spot

It was a very good trip, almost on time. I booked the night before and was able to join the tour without any problems. (The audio guide was only available in Chinese or Korean, and you had to change the app language before purchasing to download it. I forgot to change it, so I missed out on the download 😅). The weather forecast for the day was "Mostly Sunny," but it was a bit cloudy in the first half and then cleared up in the second half, so we got to see some beautiful scenery. Regarding the transfer, the pickup location was very convenient, which was great, but I was surprised when the car suddenly ran out of gas on the freeway on the way back, leaving us stranded 😂. We were almost ready to hitchhike, but luckily, someone lived nearby and shared some gas with us, allowing us to get to a gas station. I think this also made for a good memory! The tour guide seemed a bit rushed, but they provided excellent guidance! You have to pay an additional 100 yuan for the entrance fee, so it's a bit pricey, but it was a great experience, and I highly recommend it!

Tour was good since it takes you around the city but some stops are a bit far from touristy spots. We had to walk a lot uphill just to see Lombard. Aquarium suddenly wasn’t part of the tour on the day we joined so we didn’t get the tickets that were supposed to be included. Sunset tour was worth it though.

Our guide Alberto from Extranomical Tours is such a legend! The bus has USB ports where you can recharge your phone. Just make sure to bring your own cords or adapters. We were lucky enough to see the sequoia trees! Overall, highly recommended and kudos to Extranomical Tours

This is an excellent itinerary for those who don't want to spend too much time traveling. The 10 AM meeting time is very convenient, making it perfect for business travelers or those looking for a half-day trip. Our guide, Joe, has extensive experience and shared fascinating anecdotes about San Francisco's history, Muir Woods, and Sausalito along the way. Muir Woods is fantastic, a forest full of positive energy and phytoncides. The trails are very accessible; for those who exercise regularly or enjoy hiking, it's just a leisurely forest walk, also suitable for seniors and children. You have the option to take a ferry back to San Francisco from Sausalito for an additional fee. We highly recommend taking the ferry back, as it offers stunning views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. Remember to choose the right side of the deck on the return trip for the best scenery! Upon arrival at the Ferry Building, you'll find a clean and beautiful indoor food court where you can relax and refresh.

safety: All smooth. The tour was trully an experience worth remembering both Alcatraz and the cruise. itinerary: Expect more walking, wear your comfortable shoes. Prepare your QR codes and be 30 minutes ahead on time. attractions on route: For Alcatraz, Self guided tour is extraordinary. For the cruise better be early to choose best seats in the boat. service: Very good. value for money: Worth it. Free photos after the tour of the cruise.

Want to see the Golden Gate bridge up close? You will on this cruise! Audio has lots of good information on the bay, sites nearby, Alcatraz, and of course, the Golden Gate bridge. 1 hour cruise was worth the time and price. Lots of photo opportunities, it can get chilly, so be prepared. Drinks and snacks are available, and lots of indoor seating. Of course the best views are on the deck!

Starting with a stunning photo op under the majestic blue skies of the Golden Gate Bridge, we ventured deep into the heart of Sonoma and Napa. Amidst the cellars and vineyards of Madonna Estate, Roche Winery, and BR Cohn Winery, we didn't just taste the freshest seasonal red and white wines; we evolved from simply 'drinking' to 'appreciating' wine, mastering the professional paradigm of observing color, smelling aromas, and discerning flavors. Watching the grapevines sprout in the spring, then strolling through the rustic charm of Sonoma town, we savored a sense of leisurely escape from the hustle and bustle. This enriching experience, from visual beauty to in-depth palate education, perfectly encapsulated California's sunshine, history, and lifestyle all into one perfect day.
