Has anyone done the sea plane tour?
Sea plane tour
Long time since you asked but yes, we did a seaplane trip in September 2005.
We went on the Champagne Sunset Trip, departing from Sausilito at 5.00pm. We were very lucky that we were the only ones booked on the trip so had the plane to ourselves.
The pilot was very friendly and chatted to us as we sipped our champagne. The flight was 45 mintues although due to weather, we weren%26#39;t able to fly over the GGB.
Back at base the girl who checked in took our picture in front of the plane as a momento. She was really good - it%26#39;s the best photo of the 2 of us I have ever seen! She even arranged for a taxi to be waiting for us.
Would definately reccommend - http://www.seaplane.com/

Thanks BERBIEGIRL, This was almost like hearing from Amelia Earhart. To late for our 2006 trip but will come in handy for 2007. If I can get my wife onboard. I will tie to the chair and make her read your post. Thanks again. SINBAD
I didn%26#39;t do the Seaplane flight but did the helicopter one last August and can%26#39;t describe how good it was. Picked up from the hotel and driven straight to the helicopter and dropped off back at the hotel again afterwards.
Pilot was pointing out places all the time, flew all over the city then under and over the GG bridge, along the coast a bit, back over Sausalito and around Alcatraz and then back to the airport flying down over the american football stadium and could see the cheerleaders on the pitch, very nice :)

Thanks Geryddd73, I guess flying over the pond makes you get in the mood to fly here in the States. I go to San Francisco by AMTRAK. Then again you guys have a lot farther to go ,to get to San Francisco. Always worth the trip though. I really like the idea of going under the GG. That may be the diciding factor in our plan. But frist the plan to get my wife in the chopper. Thanks again.
