Seward Street Slides
posted by qhice Needs a bit of planning as it's a little off the beaten track plus you need some sort of cardboard to sit on (we got ours the night before when shops put the rubbish out) but once you get there the fun can commence! The slides are cool as!! Shoe Garden
posted by jsullivan What I love about visiting San Francisco is that there is always the chance you'll spot something totally off-the-wall and this is the perfect example. It's a small garden with lots of lost or donated shoes planted with flowers into a beautiful and quirky offering! Camera Obscura
posted by xbeals Awesome place! Strangely, they have designed the building to look like a camera (which it sort-of does) which is a startling start, but power through! The camera obscura is an amazing piece of kit, I loved seeing it. Angel Island
posted by kmiller What an eye-opening tour on a beautiful island, compared to South Africa's Ellis Island for its dark history of imprisonment. Really worth doing, but probably not for kids. Roaring Camp Railroads
posted by vschuth I love city breaks but I always like to get into the countryside too and see the land, so this was ideal. We could see the huge redwoods which was a treat, and had a lovely day out. |
Although its 1960s heyday is a now just a fond memory, the liberal and multicultural ethos still thrives in San Francisco. Whilst tourists flock to see Alcatraz and hope that the mists lift to reveal the Golden Gate Bridge, the Bohemian lifestyle is still on offer away from the waterfront where bars and restaurants are filled with local characters. Experience some of the different cultures in the city by visiting for 2012/2013 events like the Cherry Blossom Festival the Columbus Day celebrations and Opera in the Park. A flight to San Francisco International Airport takes around 13 hours direct and expect the transfer after San Francisco flights to be around half an hour, depending on where your San Francisco hotel is. There is a good choice of direct flights with British airlines such as Virgin Atlantic and British Airways competing with the traditional US carriers. To get an even cheaper flight you might want to fly indirect through another US city. These type of flights can save you money but keep an eye out as the indirect flights can significantly increase your journey time. If you get very desperate and can't find any availability into SFO, then why not try Oakland airport on the other side of the bay. There are no direct flights from the UK but you can jump on the San Francisco metro to get into the city. Taxis are widely available and the cable car network is a sight in itself as well as a way to get around. You can also use car hire from San Francisco Airport to get around, but expect rush hour traffic to be bad. Also, please do not be tempted to drive like Steve McQueen in the film Bullet. There is no escaping that San Francisco is hilly but that does not stop it from being a city you can also walk around. There's plenty to see whether at the waterfront where bay trips, chowder and piers are top of the list or in the famous Haight-Ashbury district where musicians, poets and dropouts have congregated for decades. San Francisco flights can bring you capitalist delights as well as communal ideals, in this relaxed and vibrant city. You might also want to take a trip up to Coit Tower which gives you an unparalleled view of the bay and the city. Chinatown is worth a visit and if you want to eat somewhere different, try The Stinking Rose. Everything is garlic and you will smell of it afterwards! Flights to San Francisco
