Description

San Francisco: California Sunset Cruise (2-hours)

Our 2-hour California Sunset Cruise (San Francisco City Lights Cruise in the Winter) is a huge customer favorite and always gets rave reviews. We'll cruise slowly past Alcatraz, Angel Island and the Marin Headlands, then head directly for the bridge as the sun dips into the Pacific. On the way back up the waterfront the city skyline comes alive as day turns to night. Your photos of the Golden Gate Bridge at night will be amazing. Be sure to dress warmly to soak in the views from the outside decks. Our Sunset Cruise is a casual, relaxed affair, so feel free to come as you are, whether you're rocking sneakers and jeans or your favorite dressier attire. Our full cash bar is stocked with a wide variety of beer, wine and cocktails, and our snack bar features light bites to purchase. And, if you want to bring your own food, you're more than welcome to grab a delicious meal from one of the many nearby restaurants in Fisherman's Wharf.

It was a unique and magical experience: the scenery, the music, the wine, the cruise ship rocking gently with the waves, and of course the good company. It's a lovely memory of San Francisco.

The trip is nice however I expected something more. The pictures of the trip provider is showing something totally different than in reality. You don’t see golden bridge at night with a beautiful lights. Just during the day at the view that you can see from any other place. But later at night, you can see the coast by night

The trip was great and very comfortable despite rough seas. There were plenty of breaks to take photos. Unfortunately, the sunset wasn't quite as beautiful, but that's not the fault of the shipping company. I would do it again in the hope of a more beautiful sunset.
