As July comes to a close, we are surrounded by all the summer feels. Windows down, hair flowing in the occasional breeze and every type of food, drink and music festival you could imagine right at your fingertips. Summer has become a celebration of everything outdoors. The need for sunroofs, convertibles and room for friends becomes a necessity as you all pile into your vehicles. It's this time of year that brings out the campers, wanderers and of course, the illusive house guest.
Outside of being able to pick up and leave on road trips
each weekend, sometimes your city is the location being traveled to! While you
prepare for in town visitors and houseguests, let us help you line up an itinerary
that will make their Instagram photos likable and their pallets pleased.
All summer long, San Francisco is home to some of the elite
food and wine events across the continent.
Housing the Napa wineries and some of the top chefs across the world,
the bay area has become quite accustomed to the crème de la crème. This week,
the city is no exception.
From Marathon Fitness Expos, Free Ice Cream delivery from
Uber, Free harbor tours and even a late night food parties with, Off the Grid
Food trucks at Fort Mason or inside the California Academy of Science; there
are more things to do than there will be time to do them in.
San Francisco is home to a few of the greatest site seeing tours around, including a guided night tour of Alcatraz Prison. Rather than your standard day time drop off, where you are left at the docks to discover the hidden treasures on your own, the night tours walk you through the abandoned prison giving you tid bits of information that one might normally miss during self exploration. Also the in house art exhibit adds a bit of cool to the hauntingly somber surroundings, making it either the best first date you can take someone to, or a great way to scare off the in laws.
If the prison scene just isn't for you, take a drive on the Acatraz and GPS- guided GoCar Tour which lets you explore the city at your own pace and you can hop on and off to explore even further locations you so choose. What a fun way to get a feel for our city without paying for the parking!
Looking for a sit down experience for your friends or family? We have you covered! Even U.S. News recommends having lunch/dinner at the San Francisco Ferry Building. Between the live farmers market housed inside the building to the restaurants of fine seafood and liquors, you can enjoy the beautiful ocean views, unparalleled food and award winning wine all while basking in the best people watching locations in the city.
