Getting Around San Francisco

  • Hop-On Hop-Off

    The Big Bus is a fantastic way to get around San Francisco. Get a little history as you ride, and hop off to explore major landmarks, knowing there’s another bus in just 15-30 minutes (depending on traffic). It’s safe, clean, efficient — and there’s no better way to get views from the Golden Gate bridge than the top deck of the Big Bus!

  • Ride a Cable Car

    The classic image of San Francisco always includes a cable car, and everybody should ride it once! Walk to the turnaround at Beach and Hyde and take the Cable Car over the hill to the famous curves of Lombard Street. If you’ve got the stamina, walk down Lombard and back up to catch the next Cable Car to Union Square. Tickets here.

    See more info about cable car routes here.

  • Take the Muni!

    Travel like a local and see the City by MUNI. Download the MUNI App to buy tickets, trip planners and maps. It’s economical and relatively easy to figure out. Pro tip: Leave plenty of room in your itinerary if you’re taking the MUNI.

    You can take the MUNI to a ball game, concert at Chase Center or to the beach. Visit the SFMuni site for the whole map.

  • The SF Water Taxi

    There’s a water taxi stop along Fisherman’s Wharf — and it goes along the waterfront, all the way to Chase Center! You can hop on and hop off for dinner, a Giants or Warriors game, or just for fun! It’s cheap and a lot less hassle than parking!

    Learn More on the San Francisco Water Taxi page. (You might want to call them to confirm your reservation.)

  • Rent a Car for Day Trips

    Can we just say it? Cars are a giant pain in the City. Parking garages are expensive and street parking is hard to find. But, if you’re venturing outside the City — rent a car, put the windows down, and hug the curves along the coast to LA or along Route 66 to Vegas.

    We highly recommend the Fisherman’s Wharf Enterprise - our friends there will take good care of you, whether you rent from their exotic car collection (top down!), from their Electric Luxury SUV Car Class (check out the Rivian R1S SUV), or even a traditional sedan. Enter “Angela Benedict’ in the concierge field so they know we sent you!

  • Private City Tour

    If you’re not into crowds, hopping on or off busses, hill-climbing or hangry backseat drivers (did we say parking in San Francisco is a challenge?)… Let’s set you up with a private City Tour.

    Our private drivers can take you on a custom sightseeing adventure - hitting all the highlights of the City and any of your personal must-sees — all in the comfort of a spacious, luxury class SUV.
