California · A connected planning guide

San Francisco without a car

Make sense of airport connections, transit tickets and the last leg to the places you want to visit.

Plan the journey, then the day.

San Francisco is served by several transport systems, with different routes, tickets and coverage. Start by identifying your arrival point and where you are staying, then work out the last leg to each attraction. A payment card and a travel pass serve different purposes.

For current service and fares, begin with SFMTA’s Muni guide and BART’s SFO guide. Check the date and service notices before relying on a connection.
