San Francisco Bay Adventures

Fantastic experience: Explore the city!

Fantastic experience: Rey Zegri and Pier 39 Boat Rides offer one of the premier boating experiences in the Bay Area. Known for their professionalism, hospitality, and family-friendly atmosphere, they provide unforgettable excursions—from scenic sunset cruises to Alcatraz tours and special events like the Fourth of July celebration, which we personally enjoyed. Don’t be misled by less reputable operations—trust Rey and his team for a safe, enjoyable, and truly memorable experience on the water.

Negative experience: Needed help navigating all the web pages to obtain my tickets.

Negative experience: We had a very scary experience on this boat tour. My gf & I decided to do the $20 small water taxi tour. We were told the water was perfect that day for the tour. When we got on the boat, it was just us & a family; a mom, dad & 2 little girls around 3/4 years old. No safety instructions were given. The driver didn’t say a word but started going out. I was surprised because usually there’s a little safety speech during one of these tours. It started out fine, we got a little wet so we moved to the front of the boat. The waves started to get intense, way too intense to the point where i actually was afraid the boat was going to tip over. The little girls were crying, we were trying to stay calm for them. The driver didn’t say anything. I tried to tell myself since he was older he probably had a lot of experience so I shouldn’t panic, but the boat was literally completely tipped over. It was so unsafe, especially for the little girls. I started to seek out where the life jackets were because at one point I actually thought we were going to tip over. I couldn’t wait for the tour to be over. We literally went around the corner & saw the sea lions & then turned back around. He could have talked to us or stayed put until the waves calmed down but it was the same thing on the way back. I was violently ill the rest of the day because of how rough the boat was. The video attached was of my gf before it got so rough, I had to put my phone away. Worst experience we’ve had in SF.

Fantastic experience: Had a ball!!!!

Fantastic experience: Nice

Fantastic experience: Fantastique un énorme merci à Charles qui nous a fait découvrir la baie de San Francisco de manière si personnalisée, si sûre, si amusante, si gentille et si professionnelle. Nous avons fait le cruise le plus long 90 minutes en famille (2 parents & 2 ados de 14 & 16 ans) hier après-midi et nous ne regrettons pas notre choix de dernière minute en nous baladant sur le Pier 39. Du début à la fin, nous nous sommes amusés grâce à Charles qui nous a, en plus, appris énormément de choses (funs ou historiques) sur San Francisco et sa baie. Et nous a emmenés dans des endroits que nous n'aurions jamais pu voir sans son bateau semi-rigide hyper rapide. Encore merci pour ce moment inoubliable. Nous recommandons vivement SFBOATRIDES.

Fantastic experience: The tour around the bay was amazing....great adventure.....wonderful family business!

Fantastic experience: Rey has a great set of adventures on the bay, leaving from Pier 39. We did the 90-minute sail. It's just the perfect trip! Don't worry if you're not dressed warm enough. The crew provides blankets and jackets to keep you and your crew warm. As you may guess, you sail around the bay and around Alcatraz Island. The crew gives plenty of stories, history, and interesting facts during the cruise. Beers and wine are also served by the crew. But the best part is adventure is that you get to see the sites in a relatively private way and without having to fight for viewing space with throngs of other people. You get to experience San Francisco Bay in a relaxing way! We can't recommend this tour enough! A+++!

Positive experience: Rất tiện ích với người du lịch khi đến tham quan tại đây.

Fantastic experience: Great experience!

Fantastic experience: We booked this last minute as a surprise and it was such a great experience. Such a lively driver and fun way to see the Golden Gate Bridge in a whole new light. Would definitely come again to show family or friends.

Fantastic experience: I was browsing through here looking for things to do in San Francisco for a decent price. I stumbled across this pass where you can attend 3 attractions for only $85. IT WAS THE BEST THING I EVER DID! I went to the wax museum, San Francisco zoo, and the ferry ride to the Golden gate bridge I had an amazing time, and I had something to do every day.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing piece of history

Fantastic experience: 만족합니다.. 날씨가 환상적이어서 더욱 좋았어요..

Fantastic experience: Excelente lugar

Fantastic experience: Beautiful city, loved the boat tours, next time spot for sure.

Positive experience: Short ride but was nice.

Fantastic experience: Very fun exciting rides around the bay.

Positive experience: Over crowded tour and audio was very hard to hear. Very choppy waves made for a rough ride. Beautiful views besides that

Positive experience: Croisière sous le Golden Gate et autour d'Alcatraz, très appréciable par beau temps ! Dommage que les explications ne soient qu'en anglais uniquement, tout notre groupe ne pouvait pas forcément comprendre !

Fantastic experience: Loved this place.

Positive experience: Leisurely 1 hour cruise from Pier39, under the Golden Gate, pass Alcatraz.

Fantastic experience: Amazing place with perfect cool weather even on summer time you still enjoy a fantastic fog view over the bridge!!

Fantastic experience: Really nice experience. Lovely place and people.

Fantastic experience: We took the sunset Wine Therapy tour and it was amazing. Such a thrill to be under the Golden Gate with a glass of Napa Valley cabernet, watching the sunset on the pacific ocean. Something everyone should try once in their life. The fellas at the booth were super courteous and knowledgeable, they even had great advice on where to get dinner after our trip!

Fantastic experience: We love getting out on the water when we visit SF. We took the Bay Voyager speedy boat with Captain Charles. He is a funny and knowledgeable and the boat really goes fast. Super fun.

Fantastic experience: Got to sail a freaking racing yacht from the Americas Cup!!! Such an incredible experience, so glad I checked this booth out!

Fantastic experience: This trip was so much fun!! At the booth they booked us on a great mini adventure. There were lots of tours to choose from which and the attendant helpful. We chose the Emerald lady for a beautiful ride around the bay with stunning views of Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge. Seeing the city from the water is magical. I highly recommend this booth as your first stop to pier 39.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been on a few tours through this little booth, I go every time I’m in SF with time to kill, and they always have a cool trip for me- The night tour on the Catamaran was my absolute favorite (great idea for a date)!!

Negative experience: poor value.

Fantastic experience: Good whale watching.

Fantastic experience: Amazing place

Fantastic experience: Had a good adventure. I'd do it again

Positive experience: Ok

Fantastic experience: Eine tolle Erfahrung, kann ich nur jedem weiter empfehlen. Eine Bootstour zur Golden Gate Bridge an Alcatraz vorbei und wieder zurück. Man hat sehr viel gesehen und konnte die schöne Meeres frische genießen. Ein Highlight war hierbei, das ich zum ersten mal in meinem Leben Delfine gesehen habe. Ich glaube jedenfalls das es Delfine waren. Ich war völlig erstaunt. Ich wusste nicht einmal das es die in San Francisco gibt. Einfach tolle Tiere und eine echt schöne Bootstour.

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing experience!!!! If you are coming to San Francisco this place is to visit ! Takes you to a nice tour and the staff is amazing !

Fantastic experience: We took the evening tour on the blue and gold fleet on a chilly day and were so very happy that we did! While we didn't see any wildlife in the bay itself, we got to see the seals at the warf! The sunset was absolutely phenomenal and the captain did a wonderful job placing the boat in the locations around the bay area for the best views! We got nice and close to Alcatraz as well! Everyone was very nice and the recorded tour was informative and educational, if a bit dry.

Fantastic experience: It's close due to covid, but amazing experience 100% recommend it.

Fantastic experience: This was PERFECT.

Negative experience: Horrible. We couldn't hear a thing the loud speaker was saying. We paid $99 for the family pass for 4 of us. Rode for an hour on an over crowded boat. We have ridden on other tour boats before and had an actual person presenting the tour and it wasn't as crowded. This was a total waste of money. We ended up driving out on the golden gate, went on Alcatraz and did a tour there and had a great time. Don't waste your money on this cruise.

Positive experience: The cruise itself was great. However, the audio tour, while informative had terrible reception and kept cutting out...it wasn’t just mine, everyone in our group was having that problem. We walked right on and enjoyed the cruise and it was really informative.

Negative experience: We waited 1,5 hour to get on the boat. On the boat we could not see anything, because it was too over crowded and everybody was standing up. We could not hear what the guide was saying, because of too many people talking and a guy listening to loud music. It could probably have been a nice trip, if there was less people on the boat, or a person that told people to sit down.

Positive experience: Great tour of Alcatraz and surrounding Pier area. Good deal through Goldstar.

Fantastic experience: A w e s o m e !!

Negative experience: Packed in like sardines - over sold so had to wait over an hour for the next cruise. No apologies from staff they just keep selling tickets - disgusting customer service

Fantastic experience: I did the right seeing cruise and the jet boat ride. I really liked them both. The jet boat gets closer to the Bay bridge and the Sight Seeing Cruise goes underneath the golden gate bridge. Get a city pass for great prices. You will be sure to get awesome pics.

Fantastic experience: Nice ride
