Traveler reviews
Absolutely worth the time and cost
I had a wonderful experience. The cruise ship was clean and every person working the ship was friendly and knowledgeable. The narration of the bay was informative. The scenes of San Francisco from the bay were spectacular. I got a great photo of the fog rolling up on the Golden Gate Bridge. I might go again before I go home because the trip was so peaceful.
