    What To Expect

    Your tour begins in the morning at Fisherman's Wharf, where you meet your guide for a drive around San Francisco. Over the course of the day, you get a look at the city's diverse neighborhoods and geography, stopping at several locations where you can hop off the bus to take photos and look around a bit.

    After your city tour, enjoy a walk through the massive redwood trees in Muir Woods.

    Then, head to the quaint town of Sausalito for lunch (own expense).

    Back in the city, you have the option to purchase your own Alcatraz ticket and board a ferry from Pier 33 for the ride across the bay to Alcatraz Island, home to the former prison of the same name.

    San Francisco small group tour, Muir Woods, Saulsalito and Alcatraz
    Diana_K, Apr 2024
    We were planning excursion to Yosemite but due to weather at last minute we decided to go on this tour instead and we were not disappointed. Our tour guide Sully was very engaging, helpful, knowledgeable in all aspects of the tour. He educated us on the history and present day of San Francisco. When we ventured out into Muir Woods he was passionate about the environment and how that area came to be preserved for future generations. What a beautiful national park. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour and San Francisco.

    Palace of Fine Arts, Muir Woods, Alcatraz were highlights. Having a smaller size group made it enjoyable, too. Joseph M. was great!

    Karen_T, Apr 2024
    Had an excellent day tour with Sully. Golden gate photo opportunities, John Muir Woods, so beautiful and peaceful, lunch in saulsalito , Alcatraz. Drove thru pacific heights, north beach, covered a lot of the city. Very knowledgeable and interesting. Would highly recommend this tour.
    Take the tour!!💯🤙🏽💝💝💝💝

    Our tour guide Mark was highly entertaining. He kept the tour rolling with so many stories, history and facts about the bay area that you wouldn't have known. Every stop was filled with adventure. The trips to the Golden gate bridge, Alcatraz, and Muir woods were amazing. Telling us the history of the Bay area was very informative as well as the tour thru some of the historic neighborhoods. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Bay area.
    Great value!
    Patty_H, Apr 2024
    Crossing and stopping at the Golden Gate Bridge (which is actually international orange) and learning fun facts about the bridge, lunch and shopping in Sausilito, Redwood trees in Muir Woods were amazing, the ferry ride and visit to Alcatraz was fantastic!
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    We are so happy you see the value in seeing San Francisco, Muir Woods, Sausalito and Alcatraz all in one day!
    Great experience

    Jake was very knowledgeable about San Francisco and kept us well informed. Made great suggestions on where to eat for lunch and dinner. Totally worth the money especially if you don't want to drive yourself around the town

    This was a great trip. Our guide, Per was incredibly knowledgeable and took us to spots we would never have found on our own. It was a cool, rainy day but he made the most of it and we had a great time. We highly recommend this tour.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thanks for booking with Dylan's Tours. We are so happy you had a good time with Per.
    Great tour as a solo traveller. Great guide, lovely small group.
    martins56, Apr 2024
    This was a really great tour, with a lovely and knowledgeable, passionate guide. Sully catered for all the group, kept us on time and gave me a great experience as a first time solo traveller. Thanks Sully.
    Mark made the tour!
    Priscilla_M, Apr 2024
    This day tour was amazing! I had the Muir Woods with Alcatraz add on day trip. Mark was the best guide. He was so knowledgeable and you could tell he really loves his job and sharing about all the great places we visited. When we asked questions that were off script, he had tons more information to share. Do this tour, and request Mark! Would highly recommend to anyone who has a day to spend in the city.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thank you for such a high recommendation of our tour Priscilla! Nice to hear you had an amazing time on the tour with Mark. Enjoy the rest of your travels, Dylan's Tours

    Great tour
    Brent_Z, Apr 2024
    Per, our guide was great. We were even able to hit some bonus stops because our group timely and the traffic was light
    Great experience!
    Jimmie_P, Apr 2024
    This tour was awesome. Mark, our tour guide, was so fun and full of amazing San Fransico history. Book it. You won’t regret. The intro guide to the neighborhoods, Muir Woods and lunch in Sausalito was great. Opt for Alcatraz because you will dropped off right at the Pier.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thanks for going on our tour Jimmie. Great to hear how awesome it was. Sounds like Mark was top notch as always. See you on your next trip, Dylan's Tours
    San Fran must see!

    AWESOME EXPERIENCE
    David_K, Apr 2024
    1st time in San Fran (Califonia actually) and what a TOTALLY awesome Tour experience. We had a tour guide (Mark) who went way, WAY out of his way to make it such a great experience. Very informative, good sence of humor and totally interactive with everyone on the bus. To have someone in today's world who enjoys what they are doing for work - be "your" tour guide was incredible. Thank you Mark for the wonderful tour. Booking this tour (via viator) is a MUST for anyone visiting San Fran. Cant say enough
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thank you very much for providing this wonderful feedback, David! It sounds like you had an awesome time and Mark really made your first trip to San Francisco memorable. We look forward to seeing you on your 2nd trip in the future. Best regards, Dylan's Tours
