A Premier I.V. Doc Location
 

If you're going to San Francisco…be sure to bookmark this page! It's your launching pad to of some of the city's greatest hits. It also keeps The I.V. Doc's info handy in case you climb one too many of SF's legendary hills, soak up too much warm California sun, or are depleted by overindulgence or illness.

 

 

 

 

Must-Sees

 
Fisherman's Wharf

 
Yes, Fisherman's Wharf is over-the-top touristy, but there are lots of good reasons why: savory chowders and steamed crabs; postcard views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and San Francisco Bay: Pier 39 shopping, restaurants and lounging sea lions; street performers, bay cruises, Segway rentals, Ghirardelli Square, and tons more!

 

Golden Gate Park

 

Take time to explore this lush three-mile expanse stretching eastward from Ocean Beach to the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. Notable stops: the Japanese Tea Garden, the fine arts DeYoung Museum, California Academy of Sciences, the 2,000 species of the Conservatory of Flowers, trails, picnic areas, and numerous playgrounds for the kids.

 

 
Cable Cars

 

No visit would be complete without claiming bragging rights to riding a classic San Francisco cable car. Hop aboard one of the three remaining lines, now a National Historic Landmark, and travel back in time to the days when the system spared horses from climbing the steep hills. Stop in at the Cable Car Museum to see the enormous wheels and underground cables that power the system.

 

 

Bars, Bites & Buys

 

Union Square

From San Francisco's earliest days, Union Square has been a public gathering place. Now, in the heart of downtown, it's the city's shopping epicenter, the third largest in the US, with upscale stores, hotels and dining options extending for blocks. The square features a park, plenty of places to sit and relax, and multiple historic monuments.  

 

Ferry Building Marketplace

 
Inside and out, this world famous Beaux Art emporium near the waterfront hosts legions of artisan food vendors, farmers markets, wine merchants and tastings, gourmet cafes, popular eateries, the Fort Point Beer Company, and lots more—a feast for the senses!
 

 

 

Arts & Nature
 

     Museum of Modern Art

 
Reopened in 2016 with nearly triple the space, it's now one of the largest museums of modern and contemporary art in the US, featuring collections from around the world. Includes 16 special exhibition galleries, a 30-ft. "living wall" and excellent eateries.     
 

      Muir Woods National Monument

 

Just 16 miles north of the city, revel in the jaw-dropping redwood trees up to 258 feet tall. Average age? From 600 to 800 years, dating back to the Middle Ages! Also offers six miles of relatively short hiking trails to fully take in the beauty and serenity.
