The elevator pitch: From the hilly streets and delicious eats to fine art and boutiques, San Francisco has a nook for everyone. It’s truly a classic city with so much to explore. We have no doubt that its unique charm will win you over and make you want to come back for more time and time again!

When to go: Fall is a great time to visit as it offers some of the city’s warmest temps. However, SF is truly a city you can visit all year long.

Where to stay: San Francisco is home to some luxury spots. Although a little pricey, we’d suggest Hotel Vitale, the very trendy Hotel Zeta or Fairmont. On the boutique side of accommodations, be sure to check out Pali Hotel, San Francisco Proper or Hotel Zeppelin.

How to get around: On foot exploration is highly suggested to get around SF! Driving in the city can be challenging and parking fees add up - but fear not, you can always hop in a taxi or an Uber if your destination is out of walking distance!

Ferry to Sausalito

Ferry Ride
map | reserve

Historic & Pristine. Located in Marin County, Sausalito is a quaint seaside town known for its houseboats and golden gate views. In our opinion, you feel like you’re in a small mediterranean fishing village and it’s darling. Just a quick 30 minute ferry ride away and a number of spots to hit awaits! The ferry leaves from the San Francisco Ferry building, situated near a number of cool shops like Blue Bottle Coffee and Miette! One you get to Sausalito, be sure to check out the waterfront shops and poke around Fort Baker National Park.

Quaint & Beautiful. This traditional Italian restaurant, serves up some of the best classic Italian dishes in town. Not only do they throw in seasonal ingredients but they source them from local farms to support the community. This place is incredibly inviting and warm, with dim lights and great music.
