Golden Gate Bridge
Tourist attraction
The Golden Gate Bridge is the longest suspension bridge in San Francisco, connecting the city to Marin County over the Golden Gate Strait. Known for its international orange color and art deco design, there are tons of activities to do like walking or biking across the bridge. Seeing the bridge towers up close gives spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay, the city skyline, and the Pacific Ocean. Don't forget to also stop by the Golden Gate Bridge Welcome Center or the gift shop to see exhibits and pick up cool souvenirs. With its rich history and awe-inspiring beauty, it’s no wonder the Golden Gate Bridge is a must-visit landmark in California.

This is a small aquarium. It is on the coast and easy to find. The washroom is very clear. You will need to spend an hour for the visit.

This pass is very useful, and I basically used all the perks there. So I encourage you to buy one as well.

The museum is close to the coast. So you will normally need to walk for 20 minutes to get there. It is normally not very crowded.

This is a big museum, although it looks like a tiny one from outside. The staff are very polite and helpful, and everything is clear organised.

The museum is a big one, and you will normally need to spend two hours for a visit. I enjoyed watching the short movie and the aquarium very much.

A must experience in San Francisco I enjoyed a lot! Just present your mobile voucher to any personnel of Red and White SFO Bay Cruises at the pier 43 1/2. Be there 15 mins before the scheduled time. It is 1-1.5 hour of self guided tour :) you may choose your prefered audio guide. The tour will commence from pier - Golden Gate Bridge - passby Alcatraz and back to pier 41 1/2. It was very educational tour highlighting the beautiful SFO. For future travelers, I highly recommend to include this tour in your itinerary but this will depend on your budget. Nonetheless, I enjoy the Golden Gate Bay Cruise in SFO and I hope, soon you too!
