An interview with Geoff Klein, Holiday’s Marketing Director,who recently stayed at the San Francisco Worldmark timeshare resort.
What are some fun things to do in San Francisco that you recommend? Take a stroll through Chinatown and sample some dim sum. Hop on a cable car around sunset. Visit the historic Presidio. Climb up Coit Tower for a great city view. Walk along Chrissy Field for a good view of the Golden Gate bridge. Take a cab down Lombard street, the famous crooked steet. Swing by Fisherman’s Wharf and grab an Irish Coffee at the Buena Vista.
Any tips that might make this trip more enjoyable? San Francisco has a great public transportation system, take advantage of it. I also recommend taking the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) from the airports into San Francisco. Travel light, but come prepared, as you never know what to expect from this city’s weather. We started out on one end of the town and it was sunny and warm. By the time my wife and I wound up at the Presidio it was foggy and cool.
Any other recommendations? For a taste of old San Francisco, as well as a good drink, visit the Redwood Room at the Clift Hotel. Go to North Beach for great Italian food. The place is packed with excellent restaurants. We wound up at the US Restaurant. This area is also known for its Beatnik history, which includes City Lights books, San Francisco’s most famous literary landmark. The Andalu restaurant in the Mission district served great tapas, California style. And, for something different, try the Tonga Room, at the Fairmont Hotel, for a fun tiki-bar experience.
Last Word: The staff at the San Francisco Worldmark were fantastic – cheerful and helpful. And the location can’t be beat, right off of Union Square, in the center of the action. It’s a perfect home base from which to explore this magical town.
