Pocket Rough Guide San Francisco

Easy to carry and packed with information, the Pocket Rough Guide San Francisco covers everything you need to know about this welcoming, idiosyncratic city. Rough Guides' expert author gives you the low-down on how to find the perfect burrito, ride the hill-defying cable cars without queuing for hours, and find the best views of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge.

Itinerary ideas and the Best Of section give you a quick overview, while Places chapters go into more detail on context, sights and listings - all in Rough Guides' trademark tell-it-like-it-is style. The pick of the Bay Area and beyond is included too, covering intellectual Berkeley and down-to-earth Oakland, the wine meccas of Napa Valley and Sonoma, and the region's many protected nature reserves, parks and seashores.

All listings are included both on the chapters' clear, full-colour area maps and on the handy pull-out maps of San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland.

Whether you go for its stunning setting, mouth-watering variety of food or world-famous LGBT scene, the Pocket Rough Guide San Francisco will help you make the most of your trip.
