F Line Streetcar
With our three day MUNI passport we were covered not just for the cable cars but also for the streetcars and buses.
We used the F line of the streetcars to get quickly from Market Street to Fisherman’s Wharf and back . The Streetcars on this route commemorate streetcars from around the World and each one is different and tells its own story.
Mode: AROUND
Type: Bus
Cable Car
San Francisco is famous for its cable cars which go up and down the hills. They are great fun to travel on and is certainly a must do part of anybodies first time in the city. We certainly had a good time on them.
We bought a three day MUNI passport before we got on one of the cable cars as this saved us time, money and hassle in getting on and off.
If you want to get from A to B in a hurry then maybe there not the quickest, but for a fun way to save your legs on a short journey then they're great.
If you go to Powell Street or Hyde then you San watch as the drivers turn the cars around manually on the end line turntables. The queues to get onto the cars at these two terminals can be huge and you may have to wait for over an hour before finally getting a place.
Mode: AROUND
