There is so much to see and do in San Francisco!
This amazing city and county is brimming with visitor attractions, entertainment, sports and activities and a whole lot more!
And if you’re looking to rent a holiday home during your holiday, you will find a great selection of self catering properties in San Francisco and the surrounding area.
During your stay, you will want to make the most of your visit to this popular American tourist destination.
Not surprisingly, there are many must-sees in San Francisco. For example, there’s the famous Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge, which is 1.7 miles long, is definitely worth a visit and you can walk, cycle or drive across it, whatever you fancy.
You should also visit Alcatraz Island, which once housed a maximum-security prison. Alcatraz Island is located in the middle of San Francisco Bay and you can access it by taking a boat from San Francisco.
Fisherman’s Wharf, meanwhile, is a great place to go during your stay in San Francisco. Whether you want to eat, drink, shop or be entertained, you will find it all here!
If you’re looking for an ideal attraction to take the family, be sure to check out the Aquarium of the Bay. Here you can walk through clear tunnels and see thousands of aquatic creatures. Also worth a visit is San Francisco Zoo, Northern California's largest zoological park.
However, if you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, you can always go to Golden Gate Park, which covers more than 1,000 acres. In the park there is the Dutch Windmill, San Francisco Botanical Garden at Strybing Arboretum, a Carousel, Conservatory of Flowers, Japanese Tea Garden, Shakespeare Garden and more! There are also barbeque pits and picnic areas for the public to use and you can hire a boat on Stow Lake.
Chinatown is another popular location in San Francisco and is worth seeing, if time during your trip allows. Here you can take a stroll, look around the shops and soak up the atmosphere.
If you want to make sure that you see the sights of San Francisco, you can take one of the many tours available in the city. There are tours by bus, bike, boat or even helicopter!
San Francisco is also an excellent city in which to dine out. You will be spoilt for choice by the number of restaurants here. There is something for everyone, whatever your taste, whether it's Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Vietnamese, Seafood, Vegetarian or American, of course!
But if all the sightseeing, touring and the eating is not enough, you can always check out the shops in San Francisco during your self catering holiday.
There’s a huge selection of shopping centres, malls and shops which will give you the chance to shop until you drop! Shopaholics beware!
And after some retail therapy, you then have the opportunity to check out San Francisco’s great nightlife. With its Karaoke bars, wine bars, nightclubs etc, you will have a fun time in San Francisco.
San Francisco clearly is a perfect holiday destination for all the family.
