San Francisco is one of the most visited cities on the planet, and it doesn’t take much to figure out why. Whether you’re interested in wandering North America’s oldest Chinatown, discovering the city’s history as a hub for the beatnik and counter-culture movements in the ‘50s and ‘60s, exploring beautiful urban parks, taking in the bustling activity at Fisherman’s Wharf, ferrying out to the famed former penitentiary at Alcatraz, biking across the Golden Gate Bridge or indulging in the abundant cultural and culinary offerings in this sophisticated city, San Francisco has something for virtually every traveler. There are many different ways to explore the city. Many companies offer bus tours of both the city itself and nearby destinations such as Sausalito, Yosemite and Muir Woods. Cycling and Segway tours are also popular ways to visit Fisherman’s Wharf, Golden Gate Park and other spots. Another option is to hop on a cruise of the bay itself, so you can take in the San Francisco skyline from the water. Some of San Francisco’s top destinations include the bustling Fisherman’s Wharf (home of the famed sea lions), Lombard Street (known as the “crookedest street in the world”), Haight Ashbury (ground zero for the hippie movement), Presidio and Golden Gate Parks, Chinatown and the cable cars that criss-cross the city.
