Located in the beautiful California Bay Area, San Francisco is one of the largest, well-planned and most desirable cities in the world. San Francisco is a city famous for its Victorian styling, scenic drives, cultural ethnicity and diverse avenues just waiting to be explored. Moreover, the beautiful beaches and Fisherman’s Wharf are ideal picnic spots in the city. While it is not physically possible to be everywhere, see all the sights and do everything in the city, car rental services are recommended to make the most of all there is.
Housed in the lavish Golden Gate District, this iconic bridge is the face of San Francisco and is also considered a ‘Modern Day Wonder of the World’. The view from the Gate is amazing and gives you a glimpse of the spectacular skyline of the city. In close proximity to the Golden Gate Bridge is the Presidio, with the Palace of Fine Arts in its midst. Exploring the district and its plentiful shopping areas is so much easier with car hire services.
Considered a tourist trap by many, Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco remains one of the most sought after destinations in the city. You can watch sea lions, spend time in the museums – especially the Hyde Street Pier, stroll along the natural harbour and watch live street shows here. There are ferry services available to Alcatraz prison or Angel Island that offer beautiful sights. Plus, the food here is delicious and there are many restaurants to choose from.
The Twin Peaks are the highest points in San Francisco from where you get breathtaking views of the city and the Pacific Ocean. Bernal High Park in the financial district is another overlooked but beautiful place to go to. The various national sanctuaries and wildlife centres on the hills make for excellent one day trips from San Francisco. With reliable and low-cost car hire services, you can explore a variety of places close to the city.
The sun-kissed beaches at Ocean Beach in the North Beach district are a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. Locals and tourists frequent these areas for a leisurely stroll or sunbathing and take ferry trips to the islands nearby. Treasure Island, which is an artificially created island in California Bay offers great sightseeing and dining options.
San Francisco is a popular tourist destination and it would be a shame to miss out on the best parts of this beautiful city. Arranging car hire is easy and will save both time and money to help you to enjoy the holiday of a lifetime.
