| It had been a rainy day but about 30 minutes before our sunset cruise the sky cleared and it was a beautiful evening. My husband and I ended up being the only 2 customers who showed up! The captain and his helper were professional and cordial. They took us on our own private cruise! We enjoyed the beauty, the atmosphere---everything! It was definitely a memorable evening! | ||||||

| THIS WAS AN EXCELLENT TOUR. A GREAT WAY TO SEE THE SITES OF SAN FRANCISCO-- THE SKYLINE, ALCATRAZ, SAUSALITO AND THE GREAT GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE. MY HUSBAND AND I MET SOME REALLY NICE PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND TOOK SOME BEAUTIFUL PICTURES. THE CAPTAIN AND HIS CREW WERE GREAT. THE FOOD AND DRINK WAS A VERY NICE TOUCH. DEFINITELY A MUST!! | ||||||

| I found a recommendation for this sail in an online "avoid the tourist trap" article. After reading other reviews, I decided it was worth the time and money to give it a try - and I was not disappointed. Before we left the dock we were given a safety talk by the captain. Then, throughout the sail, he and the deck hands were very friendly and helpful, answering questions, pointing out good places to position yourself, taking pictures of groups, etc. When we left Pier 39 it was gray, cloudy, windy and cool, yet the 'cat cut through the choppy water quite nicely, simply porpoising up and down as it neatly moved ahead. First we went around Alcatraz Island, slowing to take it all in, then picked up speed and headed for the Golden Gate Bridge. Again the cat slowed for the bridge, then passed under the span to get very close to a beach on the marine highlands, where there were rocks active with pelicans and cormorants flying around and diving for food, and campers in the woods an on the shoreline. I got some great pictures. Coming back under the bridge the sun broke through and the winds eased, giving great views of various city skyline highlights, the Fisherman's Wharf piers and the Oakland Bay Bridge off in the distance. Along the way we encountered sail and kite surfers, sea lions, other small boats, large container ships, etc. I thought it was a perfect way to see the Bay Area, and would definitely do it again. At the last minute a friend came with me; she lives outside of San Francisco but had never taken this tour before - she is now recommending it to her friends and family. Definitely worthwhile, especially if you like being on the water - just do it! | ||||||

| The Adventure Cat experience was my absolute favorite of my whole trip. You have the option of the Day Cruise or the Sunset Cruise. My advice is to spend the extra $15 for the Sunset Cruise. It is WORTH it. Me and my boyfriend went in the middle of October, which I heard is the best time of year for San Francisco weather. The staff and captain are very friendly and interactive. And there's a BAR! I prefer the Catamaran to any fancy Yacht cruise any day. It is more intimate and quiet and you can hear the ocean as well as see it beneath your feet. The ocean wasn't too choppy and the sunset was so beautiful, everyone could not stop starring at all the colors. I got some awesome photos. It was the best 1 1/2 hrs I had in SF and totally worth it. I would say that it is fun for everyone, not just couples (families, friends, groups, etc.). Would definitely book it again when we are back in town. It is truly a hidden gem that I'm glad I found. | ||||||

| This is the third time I have taken an out of towner on the adventure cat and It is a great and affordable way to get out on the bay! The crew this time seemed a bit too cool for school. Previously the guides talked to us a little about sites we where about to embarc upon. These guys said as little as possiable and the behaved down right crabby? I wanted to say -Dude try sitting in an office all day pointing and clicking your life away Why such much attitude? how can they not like their jobs? None of the guests even knew there drinks available until they saw mine. I really felt like a tourist annoying the locals. This was a far different experience from the the previous 2 x's I took my out of town guests. The rest of the passengers probably did not notice their aloofness, because they sail ride it self is so beautiful. The blonde guy with the full beard was happy and personable.

| The cruise was wonderful. I went on the 1pm cruise and the fog burned off as we were approaching the Golden Gate Bridge. It was smooth but windy. Probably should bring a jacket, though the jackets provided were sufficient. The crew was friendly and helpful. | ||||||

| Well it was rather foggy when we went out so I was a bit disappointed. However it didn't matter - no sunset but it was so lovely and quiet out on the water. Only 4 people showed up for the cruise that day so we had the boat to ourselves pretty much! Good views of Alcatraz, Sausalito, Angel Island and of course under the Golden Gate was cool! Drinks were OK and food - chips, salsa, nuts, bread, artichoke dip, veggie tray were OK also. A lovely experience - I love sailing! | ||||||

Nice smooth sunset cruise, easy with a 6 year old

| A friend of mine and I took my 6 year old for a sunset cruise last weekend and had a great time! Yes, it was windy, foggy and chilly, but nothing that a heap of microfleece, a thick jacket, and a tight hat (windy) can't overcome, and it was still beautiful. I agree with a previous writer that it is nice to take in the sights, relax, have a beer, and watch your kid roll around on the big nets at the front of the cat (sorry, no nautical lingo to dazzle you with). Just be an attentive parent, and everyone will have fun. Also--I very much enjoyed the smooth ride of the catamaran! I usually take sailing tours which leave me a little queasy, but the cat pretty much skims the surface, so no seasickness. There is a big inside area to hide in if you find the open bay is too much action for you, conveniently, that's where the bar is! Definately worth the 45 dollars. Have fun! | ||||||

| I highly recommend this boating adventure. My visit to SF was just me and my BF and we were looking to take a boat ride that was not overcrowded. This was perfect. We sailed around Alcatraz and under the Golden Gate Bridge. It was cold so be prepared... The crew was friendly, knowledgable and entertaining... Best part of my vacation! | ||||||

| My brother and I enjoyed this trip so much more than a standard bay cruise. It was a sailboat, pontoon, small and intimate and also served delicious appetizers and wine. What more could you ask? The scenery was glorious and we passed Alcatraz and under the Golden Gate returning at sundown to the lights of San Francisco. A definite must to anyone coming. LOVED IT !!!! | ||||||

| Our family has very little experience with sailing or being on the ocean, but Adventure Cat made this an easy and fun way to explore the water. We thoroughly enjoyed the magnificent views from the boat and the delicious hors d’oeuvres that were provided. The rest of the group in the tour were very friendly. We had time to visit but also had time to ourselves on the boat just enjoying the end of the day with a glorious sunset. Highly recommend taking time to explore the Pier 39 shops afterward and have a late dinner at Louis Italian restaurant. | ||||||

| If you decide to make this your way of experiencing the sights of San Francisco Bay, you are making the right choice. My daughter and I both loved the feel of the wind in the sails and enjoyed the movement of the boat over probably bigger waves than usual - that just added to the fun of the sail. Fisherman's Wharf is easy to find, but we could not find any sign to Adventure Cat. However, you will find it if you go down to the docks on the RIGHT side of the wharf. You cannot miss the barking seals. Standing in front of the seals, just walk to the LEFT and you will find the modest sign for Adventure Cat. Be patient if someone does not come to the gate at 2:30 when you are asked to arrive for the 3:00 sail. One of the mates arrived at 2:40 and we boarded easily on time. The hour and a half sail on the Bay was an incredible adventure! It was a windy day and the waves had small white caps, The catamaran glided along silently and quickly, letting us all on the boat enjoy the sights of the Bay, Alcatraz, the beautiful islands, the little communities along the shores and of course, The Golden Gate Bridge!! Spray in our faces as we leaned a bit into the wind, sights of wind surfers gliding undaunted over the waves! A great trip! A great memory of San Francisco! This must be the best way to be in San Francisco Bay! Really recommend this Adventure Cat experience!!!!! (And there is no motor rumbling in your ears, no one on a microphone explaining the obvious. It is just a quiet adventure!) | ||||||
