Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been cruising since 2000 I actually worked on cruise ships for 5 years

the street cars were a disappointment we waited over an hour in the sun to get on the street car

something I didn't do but would love to do on a future trip is visit the m Woods National Forest

Don't stay on the ship when your cruise stops in San Francisco
Use the Hop On Hop Off bus to see the city highlights when you only have a day
Take photos of the street cars and use the bus to see the sites instead of riding them
Finish the bus tour at Fisherman's Wharf for views and seafood
