Fun trip under the bridges! - It was great! Super simple to make reservations, clear boarding instructions, fun trip! It was a bucket list item to go under the Golden Gate Bridge so super stoked to cross that off.

Scenic cruise of San Fran Bay - Stunning views, 90 mins about right duration, well organised, informative. Good way of seeing many landmarks. Saw a dolphin and some seals. Didn't try snacks/drinks and info was all pre-recorded. We had plenty of space on the top floor deck outside, it wasn't busy that day.

Poppi in SF - My Dads first trip to San Francisco. The boat tour was perfect for him… He was able to stand and hold the edge of the boat and not sit in his wheelchair…

Mid experience - Tour narration was hard to hear on the ferry because only one speaker was working and it sounded muffled. Clean bathrooms. Left late.
