| 1st time on the bay. cool to see the city from the water. love the sea lions. looped alcatraz and went under the ggb. it was great weather which probably made all the difference but they provide really warms coats on the boat. overall good time. great thing to do with in town guests, parents visiting etc. |

| If you are just dying to get out on the bay... then this will definitely suffice.
Upsides:
$32 per person for the 1 1/2 hour catamaran tour.
You're on the San Francisco Bay.
They do swing underneath the Golden Gate Bridge which was pretty neat.
Downsides:
You and 40 or 50 other people you don't know seeking space on the railing. (This was a gorgeous day, so perhaps there were more people than usual...)
This commercial vessel hardly makes you feel like you're sailing.
For the price, it was pretty good.
I grew up sailing however and this was just not the sailing / bay experience I was looking for... |

FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Sailing on the Adventure Cat is really a wonderful way to be out on the water, especially if you don't mind being on a smallish boat, a little choppiness, and usually some strong winds. My wife gave this to me as a birthday present, knowing that I would enjoy it. I did -- it was way too short!
We did the 3:00 sailing, which is a good time to go with the sun still up pretty high. I suspect the sunset sailings are quite a bit cooler as well as costing a lot more.
If I could I would give this event 4.5 stars rather than 5 because it's a little expensive. Still, it's well worth the splurge even if you watch your expenses carefully the way we do. |

| Our family had such a nice time on the Adventure Cat Bay Cruise. There were 9 people in our group, including a 10 month old baby, 8 year old, 17 year old teenager, and several adults and everyone loved it. It was a great way to see the bay in a very relaxed enjoyable atmosphere. |

| My friend and I enjoy going on "adventures" and that was another remarkable day in the city! We have seen the sites via land, but there is something about being on the bay looking back on the land that makes for a spectacular site! We will definetly be doing this again. |

| I was quite concerned that my 5 year old and 8 year old might not like this. Being from Denver, they've never been on a significant boat ride. Not only did they enjoy the trip, they've been talking about it ever since. The entire trip, although windy, was very stable, minimal splash (5 year old disappointed), the tacking of the sails was fun to watch, took lots of photos (8 year old: "Dad, take a picture, take a picture!") and the sail-driven, silent running was a joy, and without the constant narration of other tours. The kids even got to steer the boat going home. We will certainly do this again. |

| Loved the fact there were no loud speakers giving cheesy descriptions of views, but instead had relaxed, friendly but professional crew.
Felt more like a relaxing boat trip than a touristy tour |
