A must- do SF Adventure! - I’ve taken my east coast family on AdventureCat at least 20 times over the past 25 years that I’ve lived in San Francisco and it’s always their favorite memory of the trip. Captain Chad and crew, esp Freddy, are charming, funny and love what they do. A must SF tourist attraction!

Sun, wind and sails up! - We were blessed with a small group of travellers. Got to chat to our operators, have great photos taken and really enjoy the experience of the wind in our hair and no engine noise sailing under the famous Golden Gate Bridge.

Halloween sail! - in San Francisco for a quick trip to meet a friend we always try to do a sailing trip. It was the end of October and I wasn’t sure about the weather, but it was absolutely amazing. There were only four of us on this fantastic day. Captain and crew were amazing Friendly and I’m so glad we went! I always use Viator to book they never disappoint!

Wonderful trip! - EXCELLENT. Would highly recommend. Great crew, very friendly and helpful. Just a great view of the bay and out past Golden Gate Bridge. 1 1/2 hours actually perfect. Look forward to doing this trip in future visit. Worth every penny.

Can’t get a better Bay trip - Absolutely amazing trip. Crew were extremely knowledgeable and capable sailors. So peaceful a trip away from the hustle and bustle of the front. Less people means clearer views as well Highly recommend

Lovely afternoon out with a great sailing team - Had a great time yesterday, thanks to Michael and his team. Great weather out. We sailed under the Golden Gate Bridge and close to Alcatraz for great views.

A lovely afternoon. - The skipper and her crew were friendly and professional. The outing ran exactly to schedule. There was no narrated tour guide spiel - only the sound of the wind and the waves. The engine was used during docking and occasionally at sea but some time was spent purely under sail. And with the sun shining and a good breeze blowing, this was a lovely outing.

Well done but relaxing, chilled music should have been chosen, not the Jackson 5. - All parts of the trip were great except the music. Music was 70's music of the Jackson 5. This did not match the demographic.
