Alcatraz, has plenty of walking so wear comfy shoes. So interesting, Amazing how we are even interested in seeing a federal prison. Sausalito was fair. Muir Woods should not be missed. Our driver — Pear , was fantastic.

I'm so glad that we did this trip...it gave me a great overview of San Francisco and many of the interesting parts of the city. Our driver/ guide: Barry was a San Francisco native and gave us an insiders guide to the area. The weather was rainy but we still had a great day

It was overall good. Muir woods and sausalito was cool, but there's not enough time to really enjoy either one. In sausolito, it's best if you grab something you can eat on the go, rather than sitting at a restaurant. Otherwise you won't have time to see anything. There wasn't much of a city tour; it was pretty much the golden gate and the fine arts palace. So, doing the hop on hop off bus is definitely better. And it's definitely better to get alcatraz Island ticket on your own. Otherwise you'll be running trying to catch the ferry. It's really not part of the "tour", you simply pay for it through the tour.

The tour was amazing, it's helps with being familiar with the city, see the beautiful woodland area outside the city, and explore multiple areas in a short amount of town. Our tour guide was Patrick and he was fantastic. He knows the city and the history. Love the tunes.

We enjoyed the whole tour. Patrick our guide was fun, knowledgeable, and approachable. Only suggestion to make it even better is to make time in Sausalito a bit longer. I would have loved to shop a little.

We loved the tour around San Francisco. It was nice to be able to see many things without having to try to drive and park. Alcatraz was interesting. We would have liked more time in Sausalito. Lunch was rushed and there was no time to look in shops. Muir Woods could have been a bit shorter. I know we did the tour backwards, but I would have liked to be told that the gift shop would close at 4. They actually closed it before 4.

This tour was one of my favorite experiences ever. I’m very particular about traveling and this tour took a lot of stress off of us. It was amazing to see a lot of San Francisco and its neighborhoods and sights. Alcatraz was amazing and definitely worth it. Thank you Patrick, at Dylan’s Tours. It was a blast and tell Tom Brady to come play a season with the 9ers.
