<p>You got a lot of great suggestions in town. If you have 5 days I’d also suggest you get out of town a little bit. I’d rent a car and take a day trip to Carmel/Monteray and drive the shore drive … and in one direction stop in Santa Cruz … it is absolutely beautiful!</p>
<p>I highly recomment the Alcatraz tour … it is much-much more interesting than I expected (rent Escape from Alcatraz when you get home!). There is a ferry ride to Alcatraz and I’d suggest making the return trip at night … the ferry provides a breathtaking nightime view of the skyline!</p>
<p>I’m not sure if anyone mentioned this … but please walk/drive Lombard Street (<a href=“http://www.reliablerides.com/images/lombard%20street.jpeg[/url]”>http://www.reliablerides.com/images/lombard%20street.jpeg</a>) … and riding the cable cars is a must (the cable car museum is pretty good also).</p>

<p>PS - San Franciscio is my absolute favorite city to visit in the US … I live in Boston and would travel to SF for a day visit at any time!</p>
