From 1 to 85 years old, we all had a great time - We had a lovely time on this sailboat, celebrating dads 85th birthday on the Privateer with Captain Dave. They were so kind and easygoing, and helpful with dad. They gave us blankets and jackets, and it was such a thrill going under the golden gate bridge and seeing the sunset from the bay. Absolutely worth it!

Escape the Crowds: A Relaxing Sunset Sail in San Francisco with Gorgeous Views and Laid-Back Vibes - My husband and I wanted to take a sunset cruise while visiting San Francisco. While searching, we realized that most of the sunset cruises out there hold 75 - 300 people!! No thank you. Then we came across this experience and quickly realized it would be more enjoyable with a lot less people. Every aspec of it was amazing! No loud speakers blaring content, no random people in your pictures, plenty of space to move about, a bathroom on-board if you need it, drinks, good-vibes music, chill company and blankets if you get cold. The weather was absolutely perfect! The captain and first mate were very laid back and fun! They were very attentive, in a non-invasive way. :) There were occassional splashes...b/c it's a sailboat and there are waves. I'd suggest wearing a coat that keeps wind out, tall socks, and bringing a pair of sunglasses and/or a hat/ponytail holder - as it can be windy on the water. ...Oh yeah, a couple also got engaged on our trip! Such a fantastic way to propose!

Cruising Into the Sumset - Fantastic cruise. So glad we did this at the end of our trip! Captain and first mate were great. Scenery was wonderful. One of the few things in SF that wasn’t a disappointment.
