Our tour guide was funny! - Visiting Muir Woods and Sausalito for half a day was nice! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny as well. The buses were roomie and the guide also made a pit stop after the Golden Gate Bridge to allow us to get some nice photos of the splendid views!

A Must! - It was a great experience! Muir Woods was incredible! Our tour guide was an Irish guy that had quite the gift of gab and knowledge of the area! Truly a great experience while you’re in San Francisco. Sausalito is so pretty!

Relaxing and stress free sightseeing - I loved being able to see the must-see spots in San Francisco without the stress of planning myself & having a knowledgeable, friendly guide to provide commentary along the way. Joe was wonderful

Muir Woods tour in November - A Nice tour. Beautiful walk through the woods especially since we were the only peoplein the park at 0900. I wished that Viator used only one avenue for communication. I found it a little confusing when they used email,text or whatsapp to send me messages. Our stop in Salsileto was to early, most places weren't serving lunch yet. A side trip to Muir beach might be a nice add on in the future.

Muir Woods Tour - There was static on the intercom in the back of the bus so could not understand the guide very well. Might have been combination of the static and his accent. Very informative though and nice and helpful. Also Viator sent too many emails and messages; some of these had no content.

Good tour, poor admin/ organisation - Solo traveller wanting to see Muir woods. I found the admin side of this company very strange- I was booked for the PM tour and they moved me to the AM tour instead which was fine. But I was then told 4 different pick up times and turns out the new tour wasn’t even with this company it was with their sister company ‘Greyhound’ (which they failed to tell me).
The tour with Greyhound was actually really good and I would highly recommend this tour- just don’t book through Extranomical- go straight to greyhound and you’ll have a great morning out.

Do the tour yourself cheaper!!! And without being cancelled on 👌 - They cancelled the tour the day before! No reason either. Of course all other companies were booked! Then took a while to refund money. Save yourself the hassle of a tour company bailing at the last minute- and save money!!- take the bus to pier 39 and then take the ferry over to Sausalito yourself and use the shuttle bus to Muir from there. Ferry is like $14 and shuttle is $4-5. Then you aren’t on a schedule either! You have to book a shuttle in advance but this way is waaaaay cheaper and they won’t cancel on you!
