Immerse yourself in history: Take a walk through the historic Mission District, ride a vintage cable car, explore Chinatown, admire the Golden Gate Bridge, and tour Alcatraz Island.
Ride the ferry to Alcatraz Island; formerly a maximum security prison and today a historical landmark in the middle of San Francisco Bay. The famous prisons are not all there is to explore; step outside and enjoy the natural rock pool formations and the seabird colony, as well as the great view of the bay.
Gaze in awe upon ‘The Mission’, the oldest-standing building in San Francisco. You can enjoy over two hundred magnificent murals that reflect the Mission District’ Hispanic heritage, and also take a guided cultural tour with artists from the Precita Eyes Mural Arts Center.
Ride up the city’s slopes in one of San Francisco’s iconic cable cars. There are three lines, beginning from Union Square and California Street, and traversing Chinatown, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, and Fisherman’s Wharf.
The San Francisco Chinatown is the oldest of its kind in North America and also the second-largest Chinese community outside Asia. It remains true to its heritage to this day, giving you the chance to explore the unique culture and community of the Chinese immigrants there.
The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the seven wonders of the modern world. One of the longest suspension bridges in the world, it is also one of the most photographed. Be sure to pack a camera!
