About San Francisco: Alcatraz, Muir Woods and Sausalito Day Tour Day Tours

Discover the best of the San Francisco Bay Area on this unforgettable day tour that combines three iconic destinations into one seamless adventure. From the legendary Alcatraz Island to the towering redwoods of Muir Woods and the charming waterfront village of Sausalito, experience the magic of Northern California with skip-the-line access and roundtrip hotel transportation included.

Local Legends & Stories

Alcatraz earned its infamous reputation as 'The Rock,' housing some of America's most notorious criminals from 1934 to 1963, including Al Capone and Robert Stroud, the 'Birdman of Alcatraz.' The prison's remote island location and supposedly inescapable reputation have spawned countless escape attempts and legends, with the most famous being the 1962 attempt by Frank Morris and the Anglin brothers, whose fate remains one of the FBI's unsolved mysteries.

The motorcoach typically departs from a designated central location such as Fisherman's Wharf, while the Alcatraz ferry departs separately from Pier 33 Alcatraz Landing.

The motorcoach and main Alcatraz cellhouse are wheelchair accessible via elevators, and Muir Woods has paved, accessible boardwalk trails near the visitor center, though some secondary dirt trails are not.

Large backpacks, hard-sided coolers, and luggage are not permitted on the ferry or the island, so guests must bring only small day bags or purses.

Alcatraz tickets are strictly non-refundable and non-transferable once booked, and the tour must be taken on the specific date and time selected during checkout.

About San Francisco: Alcatraz, Muir Woods and Sausalito Day Tour Day Tours

This full-day tour typically lasts approximately 8-9 hours from pickup to drop-off, allowing ample time to explore all three destinations without feeling rushed.

Visitors should wear comfortable walking shoes as the tour involves significant walking on uneven terrain and steep inclines at Alcatraz Island. Layered clothing is recommended to accommodate the varying microclimates between the windy bay, the shaded redwood forest of Muir Woods, and the sunny waterfront in Sausalito. Government-issued photo identification is required for all guests aged 18 and older to board the ferry to Alcatraz.

As a globally renowned single-span suspension bridge, Golden Gate Bridge is the symbol and landmark of San Francisco. The Bridge spans the entire San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate strait of the Pacific Ocean, making it an important transportation hub linking San Francisco and cities to the north. Many US movies and TV shows have been filmed here. The north of the Bridge is an ideal site to take a panoramic picture of the structure; and its bright orange arch seems shrouded in mystery in foggy days; the Bridge's southern side is more suitable for a close-up snapshot of the water and the body of the Bridge. If the schedule allows, you can rent a bicycle and experience a more unique view while riding the length of the Bridge.
