There are many traditions to be celebrated in San Francisco. One of the most iconic is taking a ride on the city's cable cars. They were first put into use in 1873 as a means of offering transportation for citizens who needed a respite from walking up the steep hills in the city. The fact that the cable cars operate in exactly the same way (they grip underground loops of steel to move forward) says quite a lot about this mode of transportation that has survived over one hundred years and is now almost always associated with the city of San Francisco.

Super Sightseeing Tours live up to their name as they offer you an impressive value for your tourism dollar. Their signature double-decker buses set out on a variety of package tours, the most popular of which is the Alcatraz Tour, as well as the equally popular Hop On-Hop Off open trip of San Francisco and the Ultimate City Tour that hits all of the popular sites. This is truly the best way to see San Francisco and Northern California. Super Sightseeing has had the pleasure of showing 150,000 guests the sites in the past year, and your spot on the bus awaits!
