This spectacularly designed day in San Francisco starts near the architecturally pristine Ferry Building, once the busiest port in the world.
After wandering through and seeing San Francisco's original port with views of Treasure Island and the Bay Bridge (Yep, that bridge that fell in the 1989 earthquake!), catch an iconic San Francisco Cable Car. Skip the lines and board without any of the crowds. As this moving piece of history climbs one of the many hills of San Francisco, the storefronts in the Financial District fade and the opulent homes of Nob Hill begin to appear.
Ding! Ding! At the top of Nob Hill learn about the industrial tycoons. Take in the small Tin How Temple, peek into a traditional Eastern pharmacy to see the various herbs and medicinal powders, and stop by the legendary Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory for insight into the art of fortune cookie making! Not only will you be able to try warm cookies just off the machine, but you will also take home a personalized treat just for you!
Later, climb a hill to see Lombard Street, the "Crookedest Street in the World". Then head down to Fisherman's Wharf for a full ‘behind-the-scenes’ tour. Plus, don’t forget your visit to Ghirardelli Square where you’ll sample some world-famous chocolate. A bay cruise and even more sights to see completes the memorable day.
