Reviews

[Naessens · Rating 4 out of 5]

Well-structured, concise, up-to-date information.
Of course, I have not had the time during my stay in San francisco to visit every location or eat at each restaurant suggested in this guide, but I was not disappointed with those I took a note of while reading this guide.
The only thing that could have been better in my opinion is more explanation on public transportation in San Francisco (how it works, which public transport to take to go to each location, etc...).

Just cold and dreary enough outside to inspire some summer travel research.
