Getting Around

Less then 10 min walk to Bart station that is closest to SF, and all trains make a stop here that makes awfully convenient. Also easy to get to Downtown Oak, Oak Airport, SFO, Berkeley, and all of SF along Bart lines. Never need to rent a car!

Favorite tourist attraction in SF. Recommend ordering your tickets in advance if visiting in summers or Sept/Oct. Also night tours are awesome, but very seasonal.
