The Muir Woods trip from Fisherman's Wharf was amazing. This half day escape to a national forest monument was easy, convenient, and an absolute bargain. Driving, obtaining a parking permit, and the park entrance fee are all covered. The best part was our professional, knowledgeable, and delightful driver Grady. Grady genuinely loves people and his job. I hope Tower Tours realizes what a precious gem they have in their employ. Thanks for a great experience Grady! Cheers.

It is the first time I’ve been to Muir Woods. The guide had a lot of interesting stories to tell during the trip. The trip was just the right amount of time

I think the tour is properly organized and structured well. I didn’t really appreciate the drivers boomer humor (ie. Making a small but tired trans joke in the first few minutes of the trip,m) and this is coming from a straight dude from the east coast who’s 30. He was a great tour guide, just old, and obviously has a different world view, so I think the tours culture is more fitting for older people. He definitely knew his historical facts of the city though.
If you’re a younger person I’d probably recommend a different tour, or just put headphones in. it was still good overall. Just want you to know what you’re getting yourself into when going

Lester the driver and tour guide was very informative and funny. Muir woods and Sausalito were well worth the visit. Beautiful weather as well.

This trip was a shuttle bus that left from near Fishermans Wharf, drove over GG bridge to Muir Woods. Our driver Lester was great, very entertaining. Lester recommended the path we should take to use our 1.5 hours of time in Muir Woods, we walked the paths, saw the beautiful trees, saw a ranger talk, hit the gift shop and then walked back to the shuttle. We then drove to Sausalito, where we only had maybe 45min to an hour. We grabbed ice cream at the local shop. Some people on bus opted to stay and take the ferry back to SF, we rode the shuttle back. Overall it was a nice trip, great way to see the Redwoods on a family trip to SF.
