This native approves of this wonderful tour of my City!
Thanks for the tips! I've watched a lot of videos that made me feel like it's a bit unsafe to be visiting SF. What do you recommend for a solo traveller woman? Any thing to be cautious about?
I would just add grace cathedral and the Fairmont. Top of the mark.
Been going to SF since 1980 on vacations. One of the most spectacular places to visit which now has limited viewing days, is Point Bonita Lighthouse across the Golden Gate Bridge in the rec area.
We’ll be there in May. Your videos are so inspiring & definitely helping the excitement levels!! Thank you so much & hello from the UK
I do have a question is the city pass a good idea to do where u can go into a number of museums etc for up to 3 days .
This is amazing , we live in Fresno and took a trip to San Francisco one day we had alot of fun but was only there for one day and only seen the warf . I loved traveling to San Francisco when i was in my early 20s but we just winged it , I didn’t have a 8 year old and sleeping in the car at the beach was fine lol . Now we need a plan and knowledge. Thank you for making these
Alcatraz? You're erally recommending the prison? Ugh.
Such great suggestions for such a wonderful city. You're making us want to return to have a picnic sat opposite The Painted Ladies!

This is super helpful
I’ve been enjoying all your videos immensely. Thank you so much for putting them together. San Francisco is my favorite city in the world. One fun topic I would love for you to cover if at all possible is the mystical magical side of San Fran. Your gorgeous city has always felt quite magical… It’s hard to put it in words, but showing that side would be lovely. The temples and churches, the significant historical locations with strong energy, spiritual stores… Chinatown special places with history, meaning and other worldly feeling.
Maybe a little too cosmic, but I would dearly love it. Thank you again for your wonderful videos.
Thank you very much, great advice!
Don't miss looking down when stepping. You may get a stinky foot.
Wow. Excellent plan.
