Muir Woods and Sausalito + Ferry, Alcatraz Night Tour & Aquarium Access

Make the most of limited time and see the best the North Bay has to offer on this perfect combination tour of Muir Woods, the artsy town of Sausalito, the Aquarium, and a night tour of Alcatraz Prison

Make the most of limited time and see the best the North Bay has to offer on this perfect combination tour of Muir Woods, the artsy town of Sausalito, the Aquarium, and a night tour of Alcatraz Prison! In the morning, you'll head to Muir Woods and have over an hour to walk among the towering giant redwood trees. A quick drive through the headlands will take you into Sausalito for a chance to explore or grab some lunch. When you're ready to return, just take the ferry across the bay to Fisherman's Wharf, where you'll have time to check out the Aquarium of the Bay and learn about the life under the water. In the evening, the ferry to Alcatraz will afford you amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Angel Island, Alcatraz Island, and the San Francisco city skyline from the north. When you land on the island, you’ll get a short history of Alcatraz, and then head up into the prison. The night tour allows you access to areas not available on the day tour.

Q&A

Q: What's the best time of year to do this tour? I want to avoid the rain!

A: Honestly, the best time is probably late spring through early fall. You'll get nice, clear skies and warm weather, perfect for Muir Woods and Sausalito. I did this in June and the views were amazing! Just keep an eye on the forecast to avoid any unexpected rain.

Q: Are there age limits for this tour? Planning to bring my kids!

A: No strict age limits, but I’d say it’s good for kids who can walk a bit. Muir Woods has easy trails, and the Alcatraz night tour is super cool with the audio guide. Just make sure they can handle some walking and the late boat ride!

Q: Can you reschedule if something comes up? What’s the policy?

A: Yes, you can typically reschedule, but it’s best to do it at least a week in advance. Just check with Incredible Adventures directly. They’re pretty flexible, but calling ahead is always a good idea!

Just did the Muir Woods & Alcatraz night tour combo! Amazing!

I just got back from this tour and wow, it was incredible! Muir Woods was breathtaking and the air smelled so fresh among those gigantic redwoods. Sausalito was cute with great lunch options. The ferry ride back to Fisherman's Wharf was so picturesque, especially with the city skyline at sunset. The Alcatraz night tour was spine-chilling and so much more atmospheric at night. Highly recommend it!

Considering gifting this experience—thoughts?

Looking to get this Muir Woods + Alcatraz combo for my partner's birthday. She's never been to either, and I think it’d be a blast! Are the night tours really worth it? Hoping to surprise her! Any tips for making it special?
