Take a walk around Alamo Square to witness the world-renowned Painted Ladies Victorian buildings, popularly known as "Postcard Row.". In Haigh Ashbury, you'll be transported back to the "Summer of Love," surrounded by bright murals and excellent art celebrating San Francisco's hippie lifestyle.
 
The trip across San Francisco's most famous landmark, the Golden Gate Bridge, is the tour's high point. Crossing the 1.7-mile span in an open-top bus provides spectacular views of the bridge, Alcatraz Island, and the gorgeous skyline.

You can visit all of San Francisco's key sights in 2 hours if you stay on the bus for the entire trip, but with your flexible 1-day ticket, you can explore the city at your own speed and jump on and off the bus as often as you please.
