The Golden Gate Seaplane Tour will fly you directly out to the Pacific Coast, and south to the Golden Gate Bridge. After flying over the bridge, you will continue your flight over the Financial District and Downtown San Francisco, along the waterfront, Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39, then north to Alcatraz, around Angel Island, and along the picturesque towns of Tiburon, Belvedere and Sausalito.

The flight lasts approximately 25 minutes, and offers a great balance of sights from Marin to San Francisco.

The seaplanes are ideal for sightseeing and photography. Their high wings, large view windows and untinted glass present panoramic views and unrivaled photo opportunities. Experienced pilots will point out landmarks as you cruise by at a leisurely pace. Get set for a magical ride above some of the most spectacular scenery in the world.

Every seat booked is guaranteed a window seat.
