I truly enjoyed my trip to Muir Woods. The bus was confortable, the sequoia forest was amazing. The timing was great, enough time to enjoy the visit. I was slightly reluctant to go for a tour bus at first, but it ended up being one of my best memories of San Francisco. Highlight of the day was probably the driver/guidé interesting and funny at the same time! I highly recommend

The pickup near Union Square worked very well. There was a second stop near Fishermans Warf to collect the other participants. We had a very nice guide who explained a lot. On the way there there was a short stop at the Golden Gate, which was not part of the program but was gladly accepted. The forest itself was incredibly impressive and beautiful. The time was just enough because we strolled around a bit. All in all a very nice and well organized excursion with a friendly and competent guide.

Very safe and pleasant trip to Muir Woods. I am traveling solo and felt very safe. Small group. The drop in Sausalito is definitely worth it. I highly recommend getting off the bus, strolling around in Sausalito and taking the ferry back. All in all a very good experience. Just not five stars because the office Person of tower tours recommended me to use the restroom across the street. This restroom actually belongs to a hotel. The hotel did let me use it, but made me aware that this was an exception. Tower tour should not send people there.
