Best of San Francisco

The famous red Golden Gate Bridge is San Francisco’s most recognisable sight. Visit Union Square for historic architecture, drive a car down the notoriously steep and twisting Lombard Street, and stroll along the atmospheric Pier 39. Fishermen’s Wharf is a great place for families, with its resident sea lions basking in the sunshine, delicious seafood, and fun museums. Ascend to the top of Coit Tower or ride the famous cable car for panoramic vistas. Experience the area’s diversity in Chinatown and the peaceful Japanese Gardens, and take a boat ride to the infamous island of Alcatraz.

Tips for Visiting San Francisco

Walking is a great way to take in the city’s ambiance, but be prepared for very hilly terrain. San Francisco has one of the best public transportation systems in the US, with the MUNI network of trams, buses, streetcars, trolleys, cable cars, and metro connecting almost all parts of the city centre. Travel well when you choose Cathay Pacific for your San Francisco flights.
