On this private tour, experience Muir Woods National Monument, the giant coastal redwood forest nearest to San Francisco, on your schedule. After boarding the tour vehicle at a Bay Area location chosen by your group, this fully guided tour includes a photo stop at the northern span of the Golden Gate Bridge so you can get the perfect photo.
After your private group arrives at Muir Woods, you’ll spend 90 minutes of free time exploring the national monument set aside by President Theodore Roosevelt and which hosts a monument honoring President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. You’ll find plenty of park rangers happy to answer your questions about these 250-foot-tall trees.
Although the redwoods are the stars of the show, if you lower your gaze you’ll find that Muir Woods is home to 13 species of ferns. Look for lady, maidenhair, and goldback species. Your private group can hang together and walk the park’s trails, our favorite follows shadowy Redwood Creek where the tallest trees are located. Be on the lookout for raccoons, deer, and the rare northern spotted owl.
When you finished with the private Muir Woods tour, we’ll re-board the vehicle and head off to the Sausalito Tour.

There, you’ll have time to browse its charming shops or enjoy a quick meal at a waterfront table.
