Travel across the Golden Gate Bridge to Muir Woods and the spooky Winchester Mystery House on a full-day excursion from San Francisco. You'll enjoy magnificent views of San Francisco Bay and the lush valleys where the coastal Miwok Indians once lived.
Your first stop on this enthralling day trip is the Bay Area's popular Muir Woods. Take the opportunity to roam through an ancient forest of giant redwood trees on your 75-minute visit of Muir Woods – the longest visit offered by any tour.
The tour then takes you to Sausalito, a quaint Mediterranean-style seaside village with quaint shops, art galleries and waterfront restaurants. You can stop for an hour in Sausalito, or extend your visit and return to San Francisco by ferry (ferry cost not included).
The final highlight is a visit to the Winchester Mystery House, home of the rifle heiress Sarah Winchester where many unexplained oddities have come to pass. For 38 years, until the day she died, Sarah Winchester kept carpenters working 24 hours a day, building non-stop. The house has an endlessly confusing floor plan, with doors and staircases leading nowhere.
You'll take a guided tour of the mysterious building, surrounded by beautiful gardens and containing several museums. Highlights include the largest Winchester rifle collections on the West Coast, and the rare collection of antiques manufactured by the Winchester Products Company.
