SAN FRANCISCO
proper occupies just 48 hilly square miles at the tip of a slender peninsula, almost perfectly centered along the California coast. Arguably the most beautiful, certainly the most liberal city in the US, it remains true to itself: a funky, individualistic, surprisingly small city whose people pride themselves on being the cultured counterparts to their cousins in LA the last bastion of civilization on the lunatic fringe of America. It's a compact and approachable place, where downtown streets rise on impossible gradients to reveal stunning views of the city, the bay and beyond, and blanket fogs roll in unexpectedly to envelop the city in mist. This is not the California of mono-tonous blue skies and slothful warmth the temperatures rarely exceed the seventies, and even during summer can drop much lower.
Arrival And Information :
All international and most domestic flights arrive at
San Francisco International Airport
(SFO), inconveniently located about fifteen miles south of the city. San Mateo County Transit (SamTrans)
buses
leave every half-hour from the lower level of the airport; the #KX express ($3) takes around 30 minutes to reach the Transbay Terminal downtown, while the slower #292 ($1.10) stops everywhere and takes nearly an hour. On the #KX, you're allowed only one carry-on bag; on the #292, you can bring as much as you want provided you can carry it onto the bus yourself. The SFO Airporter bus ($12) picks up outside each baggage claim area every fifteen minutes and travels to Union Square and the Financial District. The blue
SuperShuttle, American Airporter Shuttle
and
Bay Shuttle
minibuses depart every five minutes from the lower level of the circular road and take passengers to any city-center destination for around $14 a head. Be ruthless - competition for these and the several other companies running shuttle service is fierce and queues nonexistent.
Taxis
from the airport cost $30-35 (plus tip) for any downtown location, more for East Bay and Marin County - definitely worth it if there is more than one of you. If you're planning to drive, the usual
car rental
agencies operate free shuttle buses to their depots, leaving every 15 minutes from the upper level, but you have to load and unload your bags yourself. The car rental depot is located north of SFO and is too far to walk to. A shuttle train, now under construction, will alleviate this inconvenient system. More San Francisco information...
