Our bus driver and tour guide, Vince, was fantastic. Funny, informative and helpful. He recommended a few great restaurants for after the tour and was able to drop us off near the area on our way back. Great time!Laura P., United States, 10-2011
We had the most wonderful, knowlegeable guide. Unfortunately I forget his name. But it was October 15th in San Fran. for the 2:15 tour.He had a great personality and was full of information. Believe me he did Grey Line PROUD.Gloria S., United States, 10-2011
I loved Muir Wood but feel Sausaleto was a filler. Not much to do because you don`t have enough time to see any of the shops..Evelyn M., United States, 08-2011
Everyone involed with the tour was helpful and efficientKaren R., United States, 07-2011
We requested a pickup at our hotel which was the Holiday Inn Express on North Point Street. We saw the bus arrive at the Hyatt (across the street because that was the traffic pattern) and before we could cross the street to board, the driver took off. He did not look around to see where we were. We made a call to the local office and explained where we were and the agent said the driver will be right back. We then saw him to go the Holiday Inn up the street (not the Holiday Inn Express where we were) We made ANOTHER phone call to the agent and said where we were and finally the driver showed up and we boarded. Maybe he was not familiar with the difference between Holiday Inn Express and Holiday Inn?
The driver who did the actual tour of Muir/Sausalito was outstanding as far as driving and describing the sights.Andrea V., United States, 05-2011
the guide was fun, the trip was not too long so there was time to do something else when you got back to town. marian w., Australia, 03-2011

Igor the driver did an Excellent Job! ThanksJohn T., United States, 08-2010
The tour was well done and very informative. Our group included adults and teens and everyone enjoyed the trip. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Muir Woods.Kathy H., United States, 08-2010
This was a fun day. We liked that we could bring a coffee and breakfast on the bus with us. If you get motion sickness remember some medication for this. Bring snacks with you for the bus because there isn't a lot of time at the stops to buy food. If its not sunny and nice, rush through Sausalito, as its not worth sticking around and paying for the Ferry back. Teri Anne R., Canada, 12-2009

It was a great introduction to Muir Woods and Sausailito. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us well entertained with all kinds of information. He was very patient especially while waiting for late returners from Muir Woods.Judith G., United States, 06-2009

The Muir Woods part of the tour is very interesting and fascinating. The scenery on the trip was spectacular.Dennis J., United States, 01-2009
Peter our Driver was very informative & HelpfulPeter D., United States, 12-2008
A good, basic tour to Muir Woods and Sausalito. You don't get to spend much time in either location, though. Maybe 45 minutes to an hour. It's fine for an overview of the locations, but if you want relaxed free time, this is probably not the best way to do it. But very good for first time visitors or hands-off tourist types. Hotel pick-up/drop-off is a plus.Jennifer S., , 08-2008
good experienceMervyn O., New Zealand, 08-2008
Muir Woods is beautiful, definitely worth seeing, Sausalito was OK, not great --- but there were some problems with the tour.
First, when we showed up at the wharf and inquired of a Gray Lines person as to where we would board the bus, she joked that the pick-up spot was "five miles away." We quickly realized she was kidding but I thought her behavior was not professional.
Second, and most annoying, the tour started late. The bus left about 25 minutes after the 2:15 p.m. posted time, apparently to sell more tickets as people kept boarding during the time delay. If the bus had left on time, we would have had more time at Muir Woods.
Third, we were not told the bus would be stopping at various hotels at the end of the tour to drop people off before returning to the main pick-up/drop-off point, and this nearly made us late for a dinner commitment. Some advance notice on this would have been appreciated.
Fourth, at Sausalito, the bus driver did not explain how we could take the ferry back to San Francisco if we wished to do that (the printed information received in advance had mentioned taking the ferry as an option, instead of riding the bus back to the city.) The driver just told us to spend a certain amount of time looking around and then re-board the bus to return to San Francisco.

The bus trip was excellent. The driver provided additional information regarding other areas of the city. The tour through the woods was left up to the discretion of guests. My preference would have been a guided tour through the woods. The length of time to walk through the woods could be longer.Evelyn M., United States, 08-2008
Excellent trip, highly recommended. Muir woods was fantastic. Our coach driver was brilliant and very funny. After the tour he let us get off at the golden gate bridge, this saved us a long bus ride back across San Francisco to see it at a later date... many thanks.stephen p., United Kingdom, 03-2008
