1日目：ベイエリアを象徴する観光スポットの楽しみ方
Alcatraz. Fisherman’s Wharf. Muir Woods. With so many renowned attractions in the region, you have to be strategic in your planning and make sure you leave yourself enough time to appreciate the adventure. An ideal way to begin the day is on the open water with a 30-40 minute ferry ride from Fisherman’s Wharf or Union Square heading to Muir Woods and Sausalito. This journey will showcase exquisite views of the Golden Gate Bridge, and once you reach your destination, beautiful redwoods abound. Nothing beats getting up close to the world’s tallest trees, so it’s no surprise that President Teddy Roosevelt declared them a national monument in 1908. Coupled with this exhilarating excursion is the opportunity to check out the nearby seaside town of Sausalito, hailed for its views, dining, shopping, and art galleries, which hit all the sweet spots for visitors to the area. The tour will take you around five hours, after which you can jump on the ferry back to San Francisco.
For late afternoon and evening, no trip would be complete without a visit to Alcatraz. Not only will you get to see the many faces of the island, but the sunset over the Golden Gate Bridge and Bay Area can’t be beaten. If you’re captivated by the lore of Alcatraz (and there are plenty of intriguing facts to learn), a tour of the island and prison—complete with the popular cell house audio guide—will provide all the details you’re keen to discover. In fact, Bay Area Moms lists this tour as part of their “Bay Area Fall Bucket List” for 2023!
Of course, all of this institutional education may make you hungry for other things too—like comfort foods, which happily, you have the freedom to devour. Fisherman’s Wharf is a fitting location for foodies to savor delicious foods. Even amateur bakers who perfected their recipes during the pandemic will appreciate a bite of the goods at Boudin Bakery. Add to that a stroll through Ghirardelli Square or by Pier 39 to walk off the carbs, and you’ve made the most of daytime and evening during your first 24 hours.
2日目：文化とグルメを満喫する方法
サンフランシスコを訪れたら、世界的な美術館を訪れないわけにはいかない。たくさんの文化的オプションから選べるのだから、少なくとも地元の人気スポットをチェックしない手はない。まずはカリフォルニア科学アカデミー。世界最大級の自然史博物館（研究機関も兼ねている）で、世界中から集められた4600万点以上の標本が展示されている。これだけの数があるのだから、すべてを吸収するには、少なくとも3～4時間は余裕を持って見学する必要がある。CASの開館時間は月曜から土曜が午前9時30分から午後5時まで、日曜が午前11時から午後5時まで（最終入館は午後4時まで）なので、それに合わせて計画を立てよう。
You will discover exciting and diverse cuisine in unique family-run food establishments and discover the story of San Francisco through its food and iconic neighborhood while exploring North Beach, Chinatown, and Downtown, dipping in and out of delis, bakeries, taquerias, dim sum hot spots, and more while strolling through the city.
For art lovers, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art—one of the US’s largest museums for contemporary and modern art—features a host of global artists. From Ellsworth Kelly and Andy Warhol to Gerhard Richter and Andreas Gursky, the permanent collection—coupled with limited special exhibitions—serves enough eye candy to satisfy every viewer. As the first West Coast museum dedicated exclusively to 20th-century works, SFMOMA does not disappoint. Spend at least two to three hours to capture it all from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Friday to Tuesday, or 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Thursday.
To top off the day, fix your gaze on the water with a Premier Dinner Cruise. After all, isn’t that what the Bay Area is known for? It’s as easy as an ocean breeze to plan a date night that delivers fab food and picturesque views of the San Francisco skyline. A plated experience makes some lasting memories. Departing from Pier 3 on the Embarcadero on Washington Street (South Gate), cruises set sail from 7:00 pm -9:30 pm on Sunday & Thursday (boarding at 6:30 pm) and 7:30 pm-10:30 pm on Friday and Saturday (boarding at 7:00 pm).
ライブ・エンターテイメントが、海上の忘れられない夜のムードを盛り上げる。
3日目：大自然を探検する方法
One of the best things about the West Coast is the weather. With moderate temperatures year-round, the desire to be outdoors can be overwhelming when you visit, but that’s easy to wrangle through exhilarating activities such as biking, hiking, and walking. Starting near Ghiradelli Square, riders get on the National Bike Path to travel along the waterfront and over the bridge. During the 3-hour outing (10:00 am to 1:00 pm, they’ll be surrounded by spectacular views (and for sunsets, there are quite a few!) and have a chance to snap pics for the Gram at select stopping points.
Speaking of fab photo ops, Golden Gate Park is flush with them, including the alluring oasis of the San Francisco Botanical Garden with its lush greenery and gorgeous flowers. A walk through this respite from civilization will take about two to three hours (7:30 am to 5:00 pm with final entry at 4:00 pm). Alternatively, the serene setting and majestic architecture of the Japanese Tea Garden is an hour well spent to revitalize the soul (9:00 am to 5:00 or 6:00 pm—depending on the season—with the last entry 30 minutes before closing time).
Wrap up your final day with an evening walk through San Francisco’s iconic neighborhoods and areas. From Chinatown and the Embarcadero to Fisherman’s Wharf and Ghirardelli Square, there’s excitement around every corner—plus a range of diverse, delectable spots for dining. Looking for more? The Matador Network endorses City Experiences for five must-do San Francisco tours that include riding the iconic cable car, a trip to Chinatown, Alcatraz, Musée Mécanique, and a spectacular dinner cruise. Looks like only one question remains: How fast can you pack?
