On the evening of Christmas Day, step aboard your vessel at Pier 3 and be welcomed with a glass of Champagne. This cruise takes place on Hornblower’s flagship fleet, the California, a luxury 183-foot (56-meter) yacht with elegant dining rooms, spacious salons with brass and mahogany finishings, expansive promenade decks and a rooftop viewing area. Plus it's decked out with festive holiday decorations and live music to set the mood with your favorite Christmas songs.
From the outdoor deck or cozy indoor cabin, watch as the San Francisco skyline spreads out before you, the sun making its way toward the horizon. Sip cocktails and mingle with friends, family and your fellow cruise-goers as you glide along beautiful San Francisco Bay. Drift past iconic San Francisco landmarks including Alcatraz Island, Coit Tower, the Transamerica Pyramid, the Bay Bridge, the Palace of Fine Arts, Crissy Field and the Golden Gate Bridge glowing red in the evening light.
