What travellers are saying
- Eva TUnited Kingdom4,422 contributionsVisit of Alcatraz was part of Dylan bus tour so our tickets were included in the price of the tour. We were told to take our passports with us and indeed, the lady at the ticket kiosk asked to show them. The ferry is going every half an hour - we went from Pier 33. It's amazing journey both ways, we chose benches at the back of the boat and enjoyed it. When we arrived to Alcatraz we bought a self-guiding information booklet for $1 - they are in several languages. We could wait a long row for audio tour but we decided we will not wait. If you have problem walking like I had (I used a walking stick) there is a free transport from dock to the cellhouse and it was great as it would take me a long time to get there. Everywhere are very good information displays which we appreciated. At the top was very windy which was surprising as when we came out from the ferry we hardly felt a bit of wind. Eating is not allowed on the island except at the dock area - they protect seabirds, and there is a lot of them . You can take water with you. At the dock area is also a small shop but it was already closed when we were on the way back to ferry after we spent over 4 hours there. We started our tour at the cellhouse, then saw the lighthouse from where is excellent view to the city and you also see how quickly is water running and swirling under. Warden house is now a ruin, next to it was garden with names of the plants on the labels. From there is also great view to the seabird population. Back to the cellhouse in different route inside and again out where are toilets. Going slowly down we saw more gardens with beautiful flowers next to the houses of the officers. You cannot visit all buildings at the island, at least during our visit there was no access to a few. We have been lucky to see this once feared place and we will remember everything.Written 11 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Live Happy 12324 contributionsWe visited San Francisco back in the 1990's and it was just as beautiful as it was back then! We drove over the bridge and parked to take more photos and enjoy the scenery. Love this iconic bridge!Written 7 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Vanessa PCalgary, Canada1,462 contributionsThe hills to get there are steep if you are walking, but the view is always worth the trouble in SF. However, I found it silly for the line of cars to just go down a curvy narrow street. We enjoyed going up and appreciating the houses and gardens just on the side of this street. Lots of people as it is very popular.Written 23 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Eva TUnited Kingdom4,422 contributionsYes, it's amazing! We did use it almost every day, we sit outside and inside, and every time we had smile on the face and enjoyed it. It was very exciting when we were travelling towards Fisherman's Wharf as the track is going sharply down hill. We did watch the drivers how they operate these cars; it was amazing how the driver and conductor (who is also stopping traffic at certain points) must collaborate. My husband spoke with one of the drivers and before they are allowed to drive these beautiful cable cars through the hilly Frisco they have to drive on the tram system for 5 years. And they must have a good power in the hands - you should see how hard and difficult is sometimes to move or release the brake lever and simultaneously work with the pedals. The ticket for one ride costs $8,you can pay the conductor but you should have the exact amount as they don't give change back. Alternatively you can pay via mobile or like us, we bought a Clipper prepaid card (valid on trams, metro and buses as well) at Walgreens shops where you can also top it up. You can stop the cable car also on their dedicated stops on the streets by raising the hand as they approach.Written 24 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Eva TUnited Kingdom4,422 contributionsIt was our first time in San Francisco and we took cable car from Downtown. The ride down the last steep hill - Hyde Street was amazing. When we arrived we walked mainly along Jefferson Street where are various restaurants, Maritime National Historical Park Visitor Center was worth to visit as well as a few gift shops and, of course, sea lions. We spotted Madame Tussauds Museum but we didn't enter, basically there are many good and less good places for tourists like us. But if you are in the city for the first time you should go there and you can make your own judgement.Written 5 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lynne CCarshalton, UK440 contributionsThe Palace of Fine Arts is definitely worth a visit. You can get the hop on hop off bus there. Spend time, walk around. It's beautiful architecture on a grand scale. It's peaceful and you'll recognise parts of it from certain movies like Venom or So I Married an Axe Murderer. There's not much around it as it's a residential area so we couldn't find a cafe or anywhere to grab a drink. Go round then jump back on a bus.Written 7 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- SonomaNutSonoma, CA1,116 contributionsHeading for BART, muni, ferry or Bus this is your place. Pickup your needs and head on out. Stop for coffee, wine, bread, cheese or many other items.
Check out farmers market on Saturday.
Many changes since pandemic.
No more Slanted Door. You have to go to Napa or San Ramon.
No longer Ferry to Sausalito.Written 1 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

If you are up for climbing stairs, it is certainly worth the energy and the entrance fee (10$). There is an elevator but it was out of order when we arrived there.Written 24 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Vanessa PCalgary, Canada1,462 contributionsIt was an old factory that was transformed into a commercial center. It hosts some businesses, but also, stores, and cafes and one of the biggest cafes is the Ghirardelli where you can buy chocolate at great prices. They also sell ice creamWritten 24 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Vanessa PCalgary, Canada1,462 contributionsOne of the most beautiful cities in the world. Very intriguing and with the weather that has its mind. As it can be foggy or super sunny in just 5 minutes. We found people to be very friendly, the city has its history and place in the American cultural and political scene. San Francisco is ahead of the time with its environmental technologies and community actions. In addition, SF architectural unique style is charming and captivating.
As any big city has its problems, but regardless is a place to be seen. Go Giants!Written 24 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ElvisAndrusArlington, TX912 contributionsI like urban parks, lots of and up and down. Good for people watching and listening now that people forget others are around when they are on their cellphone. I wouldn’t go just for the painted ladies, overhype.Written 24 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
