Ground Transportation in the Washington, DC, Area

The MetroRail services both the Dulles and Regan airports, while the MetroBus serves Dulles only.

Fly to San Francisco

Visitors to the Californian city of San Francisco will find plenty to keep them occupied during their stay. San Francisco has more than its fair share of world famous tourist attractions, meaning that it is a popular destination for travellers from across the globe.

Flights to San Francisco International Airport mean easy access to the city centre which is located around 13 miles north of the airport, and you can travel from there to downtown San Francisco using the bus and train links. Car hire is also available from a selection of providers in the terminal buildings. Taxis and van shares are other options.

San Francisco has some truly iconic landmarks. One of the most well known is Golden Gate Bridge. The huge structure stretches across the water and is at its most majestic when the area is covered with fog, which frequently happens in the summer months. Alcatraz is another must-see tourist attraction that can be accessed either by ferry or helicopter. A ride on one of the famous cable cars is also essential for visitors, who can explore the city using the historic transport network.
