Our tips for San Francisco

  • Get stepping. A walking city, the slog up San Francisco’s steep hills is worth it, with climbers rewarded epic views of the city, bay and Golden Gate Bridge below. Hikes around the Land’s End national park offer particularly spectacular sights, so be sure to take the time out for this San Francisco day trip.
  • Explore the alleys of Chinatown. Famous as the largest Chinese enclave this side of the Pacific, Chinatown in this city is best explored through the side streets, just off the town’s main tourist track, Grant Street. Many San Francisco day tours explore Chinatown’s alleys, and are ideal for those seeking a more in-depth look at this city’s unique and diverse culture.
  • Keep under wraps. From summer to winter and everything in between, layers are your best friend when you’re exploring San Francisco attractions. Always keep a cardigan handy, the city’s temperamental weather darts between rain and shine and back again, and is famous for its foggy mornings.
  • Weird is wonderful. This city of innovators thrives off individuality, so don’t be scared to be you on your San Francisco sightseeing days.
