Amazing experience - The trip was amazing. Vlad gave more information than I’d had on 2 previous tours. He played photographer for me since I traveled solo. The Muir Woods and Sausalito are a must see. The stop at Golden Gate Bridge had gorgeous views. The private pickups and drop off at hotel made trip even better. I highly recommend.

Joe was great! - Joe was great. He was extremely knowledgeable of the Muir Wood, Sausalito area. The tour of Muir woods and Sausalito was a great complement to the Alcatraz Tour.

Awesome tour guide yet some disappointments - I was in a van of 14 and joe (the tour guide) took us to Muir woods & Sausalito in the morning, which were amazing. Joe was really good, he had been giving very detailed descriptions to the places along of his drive to take us there. Really recommend him to all those who come to SF. And the Muir woods national park tickets were included, I had to pay $15 usd to get in. However, I was kinda expecting a tour to Alcatraz island too becos I paid like €168 euro for the whole day. And I had to pay for my own ticket to Muir woods, no lunch or water provided with this price. Also Unfortunately, I was only given a code to scan on my Alcatraz landing and never got to see anyone else. I was all on my own. It made me feel as if the amount I paid was just for the rides to Muir woods, Sausalito & a drop of at pier 33 to go on the ferry by myself. I mean, joe was amazing, he definitely worth the compliments n the tip I gave in the end. But the tour in general was a bit too expensive. I’d just recommend those travelling in SF to go on Muir woods & Sausalito in the morning with joe. But u can purchase ur own landing ticket to Alcatraz island which saves a lot more money than €168.

Don’t sign up for Taste of San Francisco tours! - (1) Michael tried his best to be informative, but some of the information he gave, although accurate, was only half the story. Sticking to facts and less opinions, especially political ones, would be best. (2) The van’s brakes made a lot of noise…there was no waste receptacle to throw trash in on the van (Michael sent me to trash receptacle 1/4 block away). (3) one hour in Sausalito for shopping and a bite to eat was not enough. Most tours have 1.5 to 2 hours. Michael said he had an afternoon tour to do so there wasn’t enough time for us. We felt rushed and it was hectic…. This was not a premier tour. (4). Paid $400 for my friend and I, both seniors, which was far too expensive, especially when we found out we would have to find our own way back to the hotel after Alcatraz, because of Michael’s schedule. Unbelievable! He dropped us off at Alcatraz too late to catch our ferry so we had to wait an hour+. This 1/2 day tour was very pricy ($400) for what we got. I still think we need a refund of $100 because the cost of getting into Alcatraz and Muir Woods is $130 for 2 seniors. Other tours offer more for less.

Bad experience - They offer the trip in Spanish and it's not like that, the alcatraz leave you in front and they don't tell you well what to do to collect your tickets
