About this experience

Leave Fisherman's Wharf for the Marina, Palace of Fine Arts and the open spaces of the Presidio. Your route brings you to Crissy Field and Fort Point for dramatic bridge views from below before turning back through Russian Hill and the city's famously crooked street. The experience gives you San Francisco's signature landmark from several angles without crossing the bridge. The route moves naturally from Palace of Fine Arts through Fort Point to Lombard Street, revealing a different side of San Francisco as the drive unfolds. It is a strong choice for guests who want the classic San Francisco sights, with GPS-guided stories and the freedom to pause for photos or explore at your own pace.
