A brief introduction to San Francisco

Known for its rolling hills and eclectic architecture, the coastal Californian city of San Francisco is as quintessentially quirky as it is perfectly picturesque.

Take a ride through San Francisco’s Victorian history in one of the city’s iconic cable cars. During your ride, you will see famous architecture such as the Painted Ladies, the intricately designed houses of Haight-Ashbury, and the winding, postcard-worthy Lombard Street.

With the most restaurants and farmers’ markets per capita in North America, San Francisco is also a paradise for foodies. Be sure to visit Pier 39 at Fisherman’s Wharf, where you can dine while overlooking California sea lions relaxing in the sun. While there, look out across the bay and you’ll see the notorious island of Alcatraz – a former prison that was considered escape-proof due to the powerful water currents of San Francisco Bay.

From the piers, travellers can take a light hike or bike ride on the Coastal Trail to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Here, you can marvel at the Pacific Ocean and get an enviable view of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge.
