San Francisco
The city by the sea, San Francisco is a sunny, open-air European-style metropolis built on 43 hills, whose undulating contours are home to wholefood restaurants, bo-ho boutiques, wi-fi cafes and thrilling late night clubs. Its waterfront reveals a succession of spruced-up piers and warehouses, now transformed into gift shops, bars and bistros, and its suburbs blend into rugged national parks, breezy coastal walks and, everywhere, stunning views across to that bridge.

Sunny California
California has always been America’s fortunate state, with pleasant year round temperatures, a laid-back, cosmopolitan vibe, and a healthy, can-do attitude: and if any city sums up this live and let live philosophy, it’s San Francisco. Once the seat of flower power, hippy artists’ communes and alternative lifestyles, there’s still something of the renegade and rebellious youth in San Francisco’s DNA. It’s just that, these days, the city’s developed into a well-rounded, mature and stately backdrop to enjoy it all in!
Something for everyone
In other words, should you seek all night parties, world class culture, or mouth-wateringly inventive fusion cuisine, all within a compact and historic city core, there are few places where it all comes together quite so seductively - and it’s really not compulsory to wear flowers in your hair. Mind you, if you did, no-one would stop and stare. San Francisco’s that sort of place.
