Get ready for an adventure through beautiful San Francisco on this two-day Hop-On Hop-Off City Tour. Explore San Francisco at your leisure, hopping on and off as often as you like while enjoying outstanding views from an open-top Double Decker bus. Your ticket also includes the Painted Ladies Tour and the San Francisco Night Tour. Begin your adventure at Fisherman's Wharf, one of San Francisco's most lively and popular destinations. Explore the attractions at Pier 39, watch the famous colony of sea lions, and take in the many sights along the waterfront. From the open-top bus, enjoy views of the Barbary Coast, Embarcadero, Ferry Building, Union Square, City Hall, North Beach, the Palace of Fine Arts, Marina District, and much more. Capture a memorable photo in Chinatown, enjoy its renowned cuisine, or shop at the upscale stores of Union Square. Continue to Nob Hill, where the historic California Street cable car line passes elegant landmark hotels and beautiful city streets. One of the highlights of the tour is crossing San Francisco's most famous landmark, the Golden Gate Bridge. As you travel across the 1.7-mile span aboard an open-top bus, you'll enjoy spectacular views of the bridge, Alcatraz Island, and the city's impressive skyline. Choose to hop off at South Vista Point beside the bridge, continue to North Vista Point for panoramic views, or take a walk across the bridge. Along the route, enjoy views of City Hall, the Opera House, and Symphony Hall. You may also stop at the Palace of Fine Arts or hop off in the Marina District to stroll along Crissy Field and take in sweeping views of the bay. Your ticket also includes the Painted Ladies Tour, which loops from Union Square through Alamo Square and the famous "Postcard Row" Painted Ladies, Haight-Ashbury, and Golden Gate Park before returning through Chinatown. Hop on and off along the route to explore these iconic neighborhoods and attractions at your own pace. Night owls who love scenery and bright city lights can enjoy the San Francisco Night Tour. Departing from Fisherman's Wharf, the live-narrated tour travels through Nob Hill, Chinatown, and the Financial District before crossing the Bay Bridge.
