| My husband and I have a weekly date so we saw a review on this sunset tour in Sunset magazine and decided to do it. We had a great time and it was fairly affordable. You get two drink tickets each and snacks on the boat that were pretty good. It was a really nice to do something a little different then the usual out to dinner date. Wear lots of warm cloths including hat and gloves. They do have extra coats on the boat if need be. It was really fun going under the Golden Gate bridge and seeing the city light up as your heading home. |

| We strongly recommend this cruise. It is terrific! While we were sailing a wedding took place on board, which was very romantic. I remember the bride's name was 'Norma' and bride and groom were radiant and overjoyed!
Make sure to bring a jacket and gloves. We did both and it was helpful to have gloves to wear.
The India Pale Ale and the brie was a nice treat. Bathrooms were tidy and the cruise was well organized.
We have ridden muntain bikes over the Golden Gate bridge, which pales in comparision to the view of the Golden Gate bridge on the sail. |

| We traveled through the SF Bay on the sunset cruise. It was not too crowded and there was plenty of seating. The staff was very friendly. As soon as you walked on, there was a spread of some finger foods - cheese, crackers, carrots, broccoli, bread and a spinach artichoke spread. The good beer (Heineken and Becks) emptied out of the bar relatively quick, but they had some other domestic beers. They also had wine, but not a full bar. Dress warm because it was cooler on the water. I was wearing pants and a light coat and I was cold. They did have loaner jackets and hot chocolate for those of you like me who prefer to dress light. I would definitely recommend it. |

| Even though we live in San Francisco Bay Area and have been to this part of the bay a thousand times - this is the first time we took a boat ride and believe me, its a totally different experience. Seeing the city skyline before and after the sun-set, passing underneath the Golden Gate bridge just as the sun is setting, the cool breeze on the face giving you a warm feeling... all these need to be experienced and not written down, yet I am giving it a shot at trying to tell you how wonderful it is.
About the boat - I mean Catamaran - that was an adventure in itself and the crew was very friendly and courteous. Riding on the deck of the catamaran was real fun. And its perfectly safe for all - adults as well as kids. Just remember to dress up in warm clothes. In fact all the time, untill sunset, we all were on the deck and never came inside the cabin. But if you want to be nice a cozy and worm as the day unwinds, the Cabin too is a beautiful place to be.
Two little bits of suggestions to the operators.
Firstly, if you could have kids tickets at lower prices. We paid same price for my two kids and my 2 year old and 4 year old did not have wine or beer or even the appetizers:) and we just wasted our 4 coupons. Secondly if you could stock up some good foods - I dont mind paying for that on the bar.
All in all a wonderful experience and as the big boss of California says - "We'll be Back" with more friends this time :)
Keep it up Sailors. |

| The Sunset Cruise was low key, quiet and very enjoyable. The crew was personable and the boat was incredibly smooth through choppy waters, leading to everyone's enjoyment. A definite hightlight to our trip. |

| We were very lucky to do this cruise on a crystal clear day and we got to catch one of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen. The cruise boat is not very big, its not a ferry boat but a sail boat which I really loved. Its a very different type of boat with nets in the front and you can stand/sit on them with the water running just about 1 feet below.
One of the best things to do on a clear day in the bay area. They take you very near to the golden gate bridge, but not to the ocean but you gonna enjoy anyways. Have Fun ! |

| What a special way to see the Bay. My visitors from Canada were delighted, as was I. Plenty of room on Adventure Cat 2. The boat is steady, gets right up to the Golden Gate Bridge for sunset. Two generous glasses of wine. Hors d'oeuvres could have been better, but that is a really minor gripe. I would absolutely recommend it, and will definitely go again. |
