Cross the Golden Gate Bridge and explore Muir Woods’ ancient redwoods, with optional San Francisco sightseeing add-ons.

About this tour

Leave the waterfront behind and cross the Golden Gate Bridge into a cool, quiet world of ancient redwoods. This San Francisco Muir Woods and Sausalito tour takes you from the cruise port area to the towering trees of Muir Woods National Monument, with time to explore at your own pace.

Travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with a professional guide, then wander among coastal redwoods that can reach 260 feet tall. The source describes trees up to 1,000 years old, rising above a peaceful canyon of moist, shaded forest. No additional park fees are listed for your free time in Muir Woods. Depending on the option selected, you can also add a 24-hour San Francisco hop-on hop-off tour and a one-hour self-guided Chinatown walk. The Chinatown walk departs from Stop #2 North Beach/Chinatown, and add-on tours may take place on separate days.

Choose a departure that fits your day and trade the city streets for a memorable walk beneath California’s giant redwoods.

How this score is calculated

This tour scores 4.50 on Viator and 4.45 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 5.0.
