How difficult is the Muir Woods hike?

I’m traveling with a child; do I need to bring a child seat?

For your child’s safety, all vehicle tours require child safety seats or a booster for every child under eight (8) years of age or 4′ 9″ in height. If you need assistance arranging for a safety seat, please leave a comment in the “Have Special Needs?” section when booking your reservation.

Are meals included and should I bring my own?

No, meals are not included, and picnics are not allowed in Muir Woods. There is a small café just inside the entry gate, but best to have a meal before the tour so you’ll spend more of your time on the tour.

Where do we stop for lunch/dinner and how long is the stop?

Sausalito is a picture-perfect spot for lunch/dinner and has several restaurant options on the bay’s shore during the hour-long stop.
