Additional Information

Our day commences at Armstrong Woods, home to some of Earth’s oldest and tallest trees. This park showcases 1500-year-old, 300-foot Redwoods, providing an admirable walk through one of Northern California’s distinctive forests. We deliberately avoid the crowded Muir Woods, choosing instead Armstrong for its impressive older and taller trees and the secluded atmosphere it offers.

We then journey to a quaint logging town to buy lunch, and if it’s sunny, we continue on to have a beach picnic along the breathtaking Californian coastline.

Our day concludes in Sausalito, a charming town on the San Francisco Bay, offering stunning views of the city. You have the option to either return with us or take a scenic 30-minute ferry journey back to San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf.

  • Children must be accompanied by an adult
  • Please note that car seats are required for children 8 years and below. You must bring your own car seat as these will not be provided.

Breathtaking whirlwind of sights and experiences - Best Bay Area Tours? More like Best Bay Area day ever! Our experience was so much more than a tour. We have been on tours before and this was nothing like those. This was an up close, in-depth, and breathtaking whirlwind of incredible sights and experiences. The best part about the Best Area Bay Tours, besides the awe-inspiring locations and local flavor, was our guide, David. We are fortunate to have him as our guide for so many reasons! Truly, his friendly personality, his kind and considerate manner, and his knowledge of the area and its history made the whole trip like traveling with a best friend. David made us feel comfortable, at ease, and happy to be riding along with him. Never once, not through the entire trip, did he ever make it seem like he was going through the motions or had done it a hundred times. He was patient, helpful, and allowed us our space and time to have fun and explore. We are thankful and appreciative that we had David for our guide. If you are looking for a magical day with unforgettable memories of a lifetime, this is the “oh-so-much-more-than-a-tour” company for you! I highly recommend Best Bay Area Tours! (And we were picked up on time at the right location and received plenty of communication via texts about it)
