We had a fabulous family day trip with Derek as our guide and driver. We loved every minute of the trip.

Perfect Weather Tour
Our tour guide Trevor was absolutely amazing! Connected with all the people in the group and was very knowledgeable about everything I asked.

Goat Rock Beach, GORGEOUS for our lunch and photo ops, Bodega Bat quick stop for chowder and taffy, Sausalito stop BEAUTIFUL town for shopping and a quick ice cream plus best pics at the Golden Gate Bridge without the fog.
One of the highlights of our holiday
This was honestly one of the best tours we did all holiday. Our tour guide was Trevor and he picked us up from our hotel (RUI) in Fisherman’s Wharf. It was a small group tour with only 7 of us. The Redwood experience was really incredible and a definite highlight. Then we went on to Duncan’s Mills which was such a cute little mining village and a lovely place to buy lunch. We then took our picnic lunch to Goat Rock Beach which was a really stunning location and a real highlight. Sausalito was a very pretty town with lots of restaurants and shops we had the option to stay there longer which was very tempting and get the ferry back, or go back with the tour to be dropped back at our hotel. We chose to go back with Trevor as he also took us to a great view point of the bridge, looking back to the city and Alcatraz. Trevor was super helpful, flexible, knowledgeable and fun to be with. We had the best day. Such a great tour to do. We saw and learnt so much.
A must do trip!
We had the most amazing day with our tour guide, Trevor, at Best Bay Area Tours on our small group trip to Armstrong Woods and coastal tour. There were just 7 in the tour, the bus was very clean and comfortable, with plenty of water offered throughout the trip. We were picked up from our hotel in Fisherman’s Wharf for a full day tour. We arrived at Armstrong Woods very early, and it felt like we had the woods all to ourselves. Trevor was very knowledgeable and the woods were breathtaking. Then we went on to visit Duncan’s Mills which was a really cute place to grab some lunch before setting off for a picnic at Goat Rock beach which was just stunning. We took a wall along the beach which was really beautiful and completely deserted. We continued on to Sausalito via a short stop off to see the sea lions. Sausalito is such a pretty coastal town with lots of shops and restaurants. We were given the option of staying longer and making our own way back to Fisherman’s Wharf via the ferry which was tempting but Trevor promised us a very special view of the San Francisco Bridge on the way back and again, he didn’t disappoint! Trevor was such an amazing guide, so friendly with great energy. He was very flexible with the itinerary and super helpful. Oh and he also had a great play list of songs on route that our son George, was a particular fan of! This trip was one of the highlights of our holiday, we got to see so much more than the San Francisco central areas and we would definitely recommend this tour, especially if you only get to spend a few days in the San Francisco area. It’s a full day tour and great value for money. Huge thanks to Trevor for such a great day!
