Things to do in San Francisco

Things to Do in San Francisco in September

Bike across the Golden Gate Bridge

Bike across the Golden Gate Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge is an icon of San Francisco and the most photographed bridge in the world. However, why see it, when you can conquor the 1.7 miles of steel and asphalt by biking from one end to the other. Open from sunrise to sunset, you can stop by Golden Gate Bridge Bike Rentals near the bridge, where rentals start at $36 a day.

Go vintage shopping in Haight Ashbury

Go vintage shopping in Haight Ashbury
The Haight-Ashbury District was once central to the counterculture movement of the 1960s. Once the home to rock stars like Janis Joplin, Grace Slick, and Jimi Hendrix, Haight-Ashbury is a mix of the past and present. Murals and monuments dot the homes and vintage clothing stores that evoke the free spirit of the 1960s.
