5. Fisherman's Wharf

6. Coit Tower
Coit Tower is a tower in the Telegraph Hill neighborhood of San Francisco, California, offering panoramic views over the city and the bay. The tower, in the city's Pioneer Park, was built between 1932 and 1933 using Lillie Hitchcock Coit's bequest to beautify the city of San Francisco.

The neighborhood is San Francisco's "Little Italy" and has historically been home to a large Italian American population, largely from Northern Italy.[5] It still has many Italian restaurants, though many other ethnic groups currently live in the neighborhood. It was also the historic center of the beatnik subculture and has become one of San Francisco's main nightlife districts as well as a residential neighborhood populated by a mix of young urban professionals, families, and Chinese immigrants.
10. Pier 39
Pier 39 is a shopping center and popular tourist attraction built on a pier in San Francisco, California. The family-oriented entertainment and presence of marine mammals make this a popular tourist location for families with kids.

From the pier one can see Angel Island, Alcatraz Island, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Bridge. Blue & Gold Fleet's bay cruises leave from Pier 39.[1]

Scam!! I booked the Alcatraz cruise with inside access for usd 97. Save your money and book directly with Alcatraz cruises for half the price. You can literally google it and see the official providore. Don’t get scammed by this company who’s charging twice the price

I bought " Alcatraz Inside and One Day Bike Rental". As it was a last minute purchase, I paid excessively for it which was totally NOT worth the price. I had significant issues with BIKE rental which is via Unlimited Biking. They issue the voucher to redeem for biking which has A LOT OF RESTRICTIONS. I wouldn't of course be able to use the full day biking on the day of Alcatraz tour, plus they have only ONE store where we can pick up those bikes.

I recommend re-thinking BEFORE buying them. REMEMBER the ticket has restrictions and might not work around your travel plans.

Nice tour. Bring some snacks. The cell block audio tour was spot on. I would like to see the audio tour expanded to the whole island.
