Muir Woods, Sausalito and Tiburon Day Trip from San Francisco

Upon pickup from your San Francisco hotel or the airport, let your guide know of any personal interests or preferences in order to customize your private, half-day itinerary. Set out across the Golden Gate Bridge for Muir Woods National Monument, named in honor of the late conservationist John Muir, who purchased the land to preserve it in perpetuity.

On arrival at this tree-lovers enclave just 30 minutes north of the city, spend your time meandering the footpaths frequented by upwards of one million visitors per year. Marvel at the tranquil beauty of old-growth coastal redwoods while you learn about the natural history.

Up next is the charming hillside town of Sausalito, known for its waterfront views, restaurants, and boutiques — perfect for strolling past or browsing. The neighboring town of Tiburon also features unique shops and eateries along Ark Row, all converted from boat houses at the turn of the century. Visit well-preserved Main Street, view Angel Island and Belvedere, and discover the history of this former railroad town. 

Afterward, relax on the return drive to San Francisco.
