Editorial Review for San Francisco Sightseeing/Gray Line – by Ryan Sommer

Overview
Cloaked in the traditional looks of the Powell and California Street Cable Car lines, the open-ended Trolley Hop gives tourists the option to explore on foot, then relax as the driver tackles those famous San Francisco hills. Bench seating faces the sidewalk on either side for terrific photo opportunities, but hop off and it may be standing room only when you return.

Facts
With frequent daily departures from Piers 39 and 43 ½, visitors can drive through many of San Francisco's most scenic neighborhoods, such as Fisherman's Wharf, North Beach, Nob Hill, downtown and Chinatown. Tours last about an hour and come complete with a narrator who will share insights about the history of each neighborhood.

The Extras
