Everything you need to know to plan a trip to the San Francisco Bay Area in California. In this detailed guide I’ll be providing tips on where to stay, what to do, what to eat, and of course what to do when you’re done visiting the city of San Francisco and want to venture out further including Napa, Silicon Valley, Santa Cruz, and Monterey.

Grew up in the Bay Area but would never live there now and from my last visit to SF, it's just sad.
💜💜💜😍
GREAT INFORMATION THANKS
You pointed to the Alameda Naval Base, not Oakland International Airport…
We are going on a cruise. We need to leave our car for 12 days. Do you have any suggestions on where to leave our car. Also, where to stay while we are there and possibly may let you park your car there for the length of time you need for the cruise. We would like to be close to where the Cruise ships leave and arrive. First time cruise for us. We have saved a long time for this. I am on a walker also. Any suggestions that you have will be so appreciated.
My son wants to visit the various tv houses throughout San Francisco. Great video!
My son got lost in the redwood area of that roaring trains area for about 15 minutes. He was obsessed with trees with holes at the base of them, because he wanted to explore them like Alice in Wonderland! Scary, but an adventure!
Hello some questions here
Can I take the bike on the ferry?
If the ferry expensive?
Very good video with so many good points. Thank you.
Steinhart aquarium and the academy of sciences in Golden Gate Park is awesome.
One great museum to visit in the Golden Gate Park, especially with kids, is the Academy of Science. Also nearby, the Japanese Tea Garden and the Botanical garden.
Hey Chris, thoughts on walking around china town area at night?
How many days do you recommend to stay at San Francisco? I’m planning a trip to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday and she is waiting for this.
Is it safe for people of color?
I’m so upset you didn’t mention more about all there is to see / do enjoy in Marin County. Sausalitio got a slight mention. Bummer. It’s the best!
I live in Redwood City. If you don't want to take a long trip to Monterey there's also Aquarium of the Bay at Pier 39. I also loved the San Francisco Dungeon (next to Madame Tussauds). And don't count out Gilroy if you have kids, Gilroy Gardens is a garlic themed amusement park 😂 It's most fun in the summer as they have a huge water park. On the Peninsula Filoli is a beautiful old property you can visit which has a lovely short hike where you're bound to see deer and other wildlife. The Children's Discovery Museum in San Jose is great, highly recommend the Disney Family Museum in the Presidio and California Academy of Sciences. All close to the city.
You didn’t point to the right area of Oakland international airport it’s further down 880 it’s by the Oakland arena you can take Bart and connect to the airport train there to the airport.
31:37 Sarah Winchester sought a psychic who said that the people who were killed by the Winchester rifle were angry and to appease them she needed to build a big house. She moved from the east coast to San Jose bought a farmhouse that was six rooms and turned it into a mansion the work was around the clock so the spirits wouldn’t get angry at her or harm her.
One new neat restaurant in Ghirardelli Square is called Square Pie Guys 🙂 Very yummy and they have trivia nights once in a while.
Oakland airport is a bit farther south than where you pointed (you pointed to the old Alameda Naval Air Station). Also, the lone tree on the 17 mile drive is a cypress, not a pine. Love your videos- thank you! 🙂
Didn’t watch the live, but between SF and Napa is the Six Flags in Vallejo, and in Vacaville where my mom lives, there’s the Jelly Belly factory.
That wasn't Oakland airport haha
Buddy, this video was the best video ive ever see on SFA guide. you have answered all of my questions. Legend.
