What are some typical tourist stuff that I could do in San Francisco?

I'm going out to San Francisco and will be staying in a hostel out there, and I'm going for a week. What are some things for me to do? And I'm going on my own.



Thanks!What are some typical tourist stuff that I could do in San Francisco?
Eyewitness Travel - is the best travel book..



*_~ So glad that you're considering SF for a travel !



I grow up here, always wanted to leave Bay Area However after my travel for the last 7 years to Seattle, LA, San Diego, LAs VEgas, Florida, New Orlean, HK, China, Japan, Hawaii, Thailand and Europe.. I can tell you that there's no place like the Bay Area!!



I just love the weather and the diverse culture here!! Traffic can be hectic but still bearable. Public transport is great! You can always take Bart, ferries, bus, taxi or cable car etc. However, if you don鈥檛 have much time or want to travel beyond the city 鈥?I think a car would help a lot. Yes, you have to pay for parking, but save you time to go more places faster..



Embarcadero is wicked nice, and it's not THAT far, so you could really just walk down it to the Ferry Building. On Saturdays they do a nice farmer's market and you can get lots of good stuff. Walk down to Pier 39.





GET THE San Franciso POPOUT Maps鈥?

I loves these POPOUT map- you get to see where you are-

Looks like you have a lot of questions about several locations. Why not get a book from your library or bookstore that describes what to see in each city?



Or, go to on-line guidebook websites [e.g. Fodor's, Frommer's, Lonely Planet, Budget Travel, etc].



TripAdvisor.com has destination guides, too. And you may want to check out CityPass.com, which has combination tickets for tourist sights in various cities that can save you some money.



Each of your destinations also would have an official tourism website. If you do a search on " [city] tourism" you'd probably get lots of info.What are some typical tourist stuff that I could do in San Francisco?
