'Mode': AROUND
Category: Subway/Metro
Getting TO/AROUND: Unlike most of the cities in the US I have been to or lived in, San Francisco imo has decent mass transportation.
.
I honestly could stay here indefinitely without a car, and never miss a thing
(I can de-plane at SFO, hop on Bart, and be at my hotel in about 40 minutes for about $5.00 .....
try that in Colorado, TX, or LA...) The muni, walking, and affordable & reliable cabs get me all over town safely, quickly and relatively hassle-free.
BART gets you almost anywhere in the Bay Area.
Here are the BART
Fares & Schedules to download in PDF format.
Ferrry Service gets you over the water to Marin County.
Lots of my friends commute into the City via BART regularly & painlessly from Walnut Creek, Oakland, etc.
I have found the MUNI to be safe, clean, and somewhat reliable whenever I have used it (
disclaimer... but I'm just a tourist, I don't depend on it everyday at rush hour....)
My favorite time-saving MUNI run is downtown metro (
under Market St.) from Castro to Embarcadero.
