Home of The Rock and Golden Gate Bridge, an iconic American city with a European twist.
This Californian city really does have everything. A dramatic setting, quirky neighbourhoods, vibrant culture, world-class museums, thriving galleries, diverse restaurants and beautiful countryside. No wonder it’s one of America’s top destinations!
The iconic San Francisco cable cars are a fantastic way to experience the city. Or jump aboard a boat and see the skyline from a different angle on a tour around the bay. Alongside the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz is the city’s most famous landmark. Now a fascinating museum, a trip to ‘The Rock’ is an absolute must see on any trip to San Francisco.
