Discover the elegance of Northern California on a curated journey from San Francisco to the redwood forest, dramatic coastline, and the waterfront charm of Sausalito.

Our tour starts early so guests can enjoy the forest before crowds arrive. Wander beneath towering trees at your own pace, with time to find hidden trails. Unlike other companies, admission to the Woods is included in the ticket price.

Our journey continues to overlooks and secluded beaches that reveal the raw beauty of the Pacific and the Marin Headlands. These offer unparalleled views of San Francisco Bay from above and from the beach.

Your day ends in Sausalito, a bay side town known for its art galleries, waterfront dining, and relaxed sophistication. Enjoy time for lunch and exploration while taking in views of the city skyline across the bay.
