San Francisco is simultaneously romantic, exciting, relaxing and intriguing. Rent a bike, walk, ride the trolley or drive to fascinating destinations. Tour San Francisco Bay by boat for unique views from beneath Golden Gate Bridge. Stop at Alcatraz Island its former inescapable prison became famous in the film *Birdman of Alcatraz*. At the bridge’s southern end is the Presidio, a former military base, now a large park with hiking trails, great bridge and shoreline views, Andy Goldsworthy sculptures, Baker Beach, the Walt Disney Family Museum and a life-size Yoda statue. Entering the Marina District, attend a performance at the Palace of Fine Arts Theatre. Travel east to the Fisherman’s Wharf neighbourhood for shopping and dining. Enjoy a chocolate sundae at Ghirardelli, a local favourite for over 150 years. Visit the San Francisco Maritime National Historic Park to see ships that sailed more than a century ago. Watch sea lions lounging on rafts near Pier 39. Continue on to the Embarcadero District. The Exploratorium at Pier 15 features interactive exhibits intertwining science, art and human perception. See the Giants play football at AT&T Park in South Beach. Inland, shop at Union Square, drive down the very crooked Lombard Street and photograph the Painted Ladies Victorian row houses. Stand at the Haight-Ashbury corner, in the neighbourhood where hippie counterculture developed in the 1960s. Enter the Golden Gate Park to visit de Young Museum, filled with art, costumes and textiles. Explore botanical gardens, play golf or tennis, photograph the Japanese Tea Garden and wade in the Pacific Ocean. Travel north to tall redwoods in Muir Woods, wineries in Napa and Sonoma and quaint shops in Sausalito. On a foggy day, stand atop Vista Point in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area at the bridge’s northern end and gaze south across the clouds to see Sutro Tower rising from Twin Peaks, with the rest of the city hidden. When the fog clears, San Francisco’s skyline is a gleaming gem at the end of the golden bridge. ### Where to stay in San Francisco ![Fisherman\'s Wharf featuring a bay or harbour](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res70/240000/240986-Fishermans-Wharf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=350&h=192&q=medium) ### Fisherman's Wharf 5/5(4 area reviews) Travellers love Fisherman's Wharf for its popular shops, and you can see more of San Francisco by jumping on the metro at Jones St and Beach St Stop or Jefferson St & Taylor St Stop.

LOVED MARINA AREA! AND NORTH SANFRANCISCO ### 2/5 - Disappointing Verified traveller The main tourist areas are good to see. We won’t return though. We saw a lot of drug taking on the streets (injecting heroine and crack pipes). Many groups of men hanging around on corners asking for money. Very frightening and intimidating. ### 4/5 - Good Verified traveller Nice - but lots of homeless people ## Cities near San Francisco ![Oakland](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res70/475000/475653-Bay-Area.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Oakland [](https://expedia.co.uk/Oakland.dx601762) ![Photo by Joshua Lefler](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/2/c862e3a81b202db9bc0569ff332e986e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Atherton [](https://expedia.co.uk/Atherton.dx5981) ![Coyote Point Park featuring a park](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res70/174000/174059-Coyote-Point-Park.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### San Mateo [](https://expedia.co.uk/San-Mateo.dx6653) ![Daly City](https://mediaim.expedia.com/destination/1/795036de7461ead3bcc19f09bc084de7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Daly City [](https://expedia.co.uk/Daly-City.dx6764) ### Other places like San Francisco - Cities near San Francisco - Places of interest [Oakland](https://expedia.co.uk/Oakland.dx601762)[Atherton](https://expedia.co.uk/Atherton.dx5981)[San Mateo](https://expedia.co.uk/San-Mateo.dx6653)[Daly City](https://expedia.co.uk/Daly-City.dx6764)[Burlingame](https://expedia.co.uk/Burlingame.dx7146)[Menlo Park](https://expedia.co.uk/Menlo-Park.dx7994)[Sausalito](https://expedia.co.uk/Sausalito.dx8106)[Millbrae](https://expedia.co.uk/Millbrae.dx8631)[Pacifica](https://expedia.co.uk/Pacifica.dx9065)[Redwood City](https://expedia.co.uk/Redwood-City.dx9465)[San Carlos](https://expedia.co.uk/San-Carlos.dx9918)[Brisbane](https://expedia.co.uk/Brisbane.dx602634) - [Golden Gate Park](https://expedia.co.uk/Golden-Gate-Park-Golden-Gate.d507464.Attraction) - [Pier 39](https://expedia.co.uk/Pier-39-Fishermans-Wharf.d502576.Attraction) - [Golden Gate Bridge](https://expedia.co.uk/Golden-Gate-Bridge-San-Francisco.d508803.Attraction) - [Oracle Park](https://expedia.co.uk/Oracle-Park-Downtown-San-Francisco.d6063199.Attraction) - [Chase Center](https://expedia.co.uk/Chase-Center-Downtown-San-Francisco.d553248635997928290.Attraction) - [Moscone Convention Center](https://expedia.co.uk/Moscone-Convention-Center-Downtown-San-Francisco.d502553.Attraction) - [Alcatraz Island](https://expedia.co.uk/Alcatraz-Island-San-Francisco.d502554.Attraction) - [Presidio of San Francisco](https://expedia.co.uk/Presidio-Of-San-Francisco-Presidio.d502558.Attraction) - [Lombard Street](https://expedia.co.uk/Lombard-Street-Russian-Hill.d502557.Attraction) - [Union Square](https://expedia.co.uk/Union-Square-Union-Square.d553248635974882755.Attraction) - [Ocean Beach](https://expedia.co.uk/Ocean-Beach-Sunset-District.d6063221.Attraction) - [Embarcadero Center](https://expedia.co.uk/Embarcadero-Center-Downtown-San-Francisco.d6199610.Attraction) - [San Francisco Zoo](https://expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Zoo-Lakeshore.d502587.Attraction) - [San Francisco Museum of Modern Art](https://expedia.co.uk/San-Francisco-Museum-Of-Modern-Art-Downtown-San-Francisco.d6063201.Attraction) - [Ghirardelli Square](https://expedia.co.uk/Ghirardelli-Square-Fishermans-Wharf.d6151545.Attraction) - [Palace of Fine Arts](https://expedia.co.uk/Palace-Of-Fine-Arts-Marina-District.d502564.Attraction) - [Walt Disney Family Museum](https://expedia.co.uk/Walt-Disney-Family-Museum-Presidio.d6155640.Attraction) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/mad-service/footer/bnaBanners/BEX_Footer.jpg) ## Go further with the Expedia app Save on select hotels when you book in the app. Our app deals help you to save on trips so you can travel more and manage it all on the go.
