| Seeing the Bay from the Adventure Cat was wonderful. No motor, no annoying announcements....just the beautiful sight of San Francisco and surroundings. Sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge was thrilling. We thoroughly enjoyed it, as did our son who lives in SF. Highly recommended for tourists and locals. Next time we are in SF we'll try the Sunset Cruise. |

| Although the catamaran was a lovely way to see the bay, it would have been nice to have some kind of commentary of what we were looking at. Most of the passengers had no idea about anything except the Golden Gate bridge and Alcatraz. We live in Southern CA and the trip was highly recommended and luckily we knew what we were seeing. |

| We visit SFO frequently as our daughter lives and works in the city - this is the first time we noticed this trip was available - it was beautiful warm weather and a great cruise around the bay, under the bridge and back - would highly recommend it to others - the price is perfect and made our weekend exceptional - |

| THE most wonderful way to see what a beautiful region the Bay Area truly is!
Best time of year would be late August, September and October. But, always a great experience - one not to be missed when visiting in the San Francisco Bay area. |

| Our ages ranged from 9 to 65 and everyone of us had a great time! No one even had a tinge of sea sickness. We're already planning on booking a time for next summer. |

The BEST way to see San Francisco Bay, period!

| My wife and I have been on Adventure Cat several times now (and they recognize me every time, probably because I bother them so much about sailing stuff!), and we will continue sailing with them. Why? They love to sail, period! Once I showed up with a friend and no reservations on a cold, cloudy day. I asked how many passengers they needed to go out sailing, and they responded "One -- we love to sail!". (That was a great day on the Bay as well, maybe even because of the weather.) Another time we encountered a major sailboat race involving many different classes of boats, from individual ones up to huge high-tech behemoths with what looked like a crew of 20 or so. And we were sailing right in the middle of them -- way seriously cool!
Oh, don't be worried if you are a bit apprehensive of high-performance sailing, because Adventure Cat is a catamaran,meaning it sails completely level, without heeling. Sure it gets a bit exciting some times, simply because that's the nature of sailing, but you never feel unsafe. Nor uncomfortable, since there is ample room inside out of the weather, and they even provide parkas! And did I mention the great bar they have, with amazingly reasonable prices?
Anyway, I sound like a shill, but I'm not. Just a very satisfied customer who loves being on a good sailboat as much as these guys enjoy sailing one. Try it -- you'll love it!

| The wind was a-blowin 20-25 mph and made for an exciting sail around Alcatraz, across the bay and under the Golden Gate Bridge. The large catamaran was stable and made for a relatively smooth ride. My wife, a non swimmer, was comfortable in the large cockpit taking pictures while my granddaughter and I were on the netting in the bow area.
The crew was friendly, knowledgeable and ready to answer the hundreds of questions from the guests.
I'd recommend the trip to all visitors to San Francisco. |

| This was a much smaller group than on the larger Bay Cruise ships. Being on a sail boat was much more exciting, especially when we were under the bridge and on the same level with the wind surfers.
The only down side was that there was no commentary. It would have been nice to have an oral program. |
