Escape San Francisco for a walk beneath Muir Woods’ towering redwoods, then enjoy free time along Sausalito’s seaside waterfront.

About this tour

Trade San Francisco’s busy streets for the quiet grandeur of ancient redwoods and the breezy waterfront of Sausalito. This half-day outing makes it easy to visit Muir Woods, where dedicated paths lead beneath towering trees, with round-trip transportation aboard a luxury motorcoach.

Spend about 1.5 hours in Muir Woods National Park, taking in the forest at your own pace, then enjoy free time in seaside Sausalito. The guided journey from San Francisco offers a convenient way to reach the grove, where limited reserved parking can make independent visits more complicated. Bring a jacket, as the woods stay chilly year-round.

Depending on the option selected, your booking may also include a 24-hour hop-on hop-off sightseeing tour, multilingual onboard digital commentary, and a self-guided Chinatown walking tour. The Muir Woods and hop-on hop-off experiences can be taken on separate days. Choose the San Francisco Muir Woods and Sausalito Half-Day Tour for a refreshing escape from the city and a memorable walk among the redwoods.

How this score is calculated

This tour scores 4.61 on Viator and 4.54 on GetYourGuide. Ratings on these sites cluster near the top of the 5-star scale, so we compare each one with all other ratings on the same site before combining them.

How the score works and rating distribution in San Francisco
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 5.7.
