Your seaplane tour takes off from Sausalito, a waterfront town just 4 miles (6.4 km) north of the Golden Gate Bridge. While you sip two glasses of Mumm Napa, a California champagne made in the traditional French method, enjoy a gorgeous, leisurely flight over San Francisco Bay before the sun sets. Relax during this magical time when the city and water are beautifully illuminated by the indirect light of the sun.
Head out to the open Pacific Ocean and then south to the Golden Gate Bridge, soaring over the iconic red towers as you make your way toward downtown San Francisco. Fly past Fisherman’s Wharf, Pier 39 and the skyscrapers of the Financial District, and then zoom up to Alcatraz and Angel Island.
Loop back to Sausalito via the picturesque bayside towns of Belvedere and Tiburon. During the 40-minute flight, watch for landmarks that your pilot will point out and snap photos through the large windows. Your 2-passenger seaplane features high wings that don’t obstruct your view, making it ideal for sightseeing.
Your tour ends when you land in Sausalito. From here, perhaps enjoy a romantic dinner at one of the town’s cozy restaurants or return to San Francisco by ferry (own expense; your pilot can provide info about ferry times).
