I will be in SF for the weekend, going to visit Alcatraz on Saturday morning. However I am looking for insights or any good ideas on sites to visit. Thanks

ghiradelli, rainforest cafe, boudin bakery, and pier 39 are all in the same area and walking distance. i usually try to check out at least 3 of those places whenever i go to sf. hopefully one of the sf guys can chime in

Head to Bi-right creamery if you like Ice cream. It's really good! Also Fisherman's wharf, unless thats just called pier 39

Look up twin peaks for your view. But if it's foggy you won't see anything lol

You can walk/bike accrooss the Golden Gate Bridge. It's a good view of the city from the other side.

BiRite ice cream is good. There is also Mitchell's ice cream. Both good.

Thanks Nos4You. ...Where is the best place to park to be able to walk over the G G bridge

Tony's Pizza Napoletana on Stockton St. Grub!
I always like to go across the GG to the Marin side, you hang a right as soon as you get off the bridge. The road wraps under the freeway and goes up to the old bunkers. Kinda cool to walk around. Has a great vista point view of the bridge and the city etc... you can follow that road along the coast as well. Lots of weird bunkers, turret towers etc along the way.

i recommend parking at the Sports Basement next to Crissy field, rent a bike and bike across the Golden Gate to Sausalito. then take the ferry to San Francisco Ferry Building and bike along the water front through Pier 39, Fisherman's Warf, Fort Mason and back to the Crissy Field to your car.
