What are all the ways I can get around in San Francisco?
In San Francisco, there are four main ways to get around the city. Those ways are by car, by public transit, by foot or by bikes and scooters. Because San Francisco has many public transportation and ride share options, many residents choose not to own a car. For public transportation, there are buses, trolleys, trains, subways and hybrid buses and trains called Munis. The subway in San Francisco is called Bart (Bay Area Rapid Transit), and it even goes under the San Francisco Bay to cities like Oakland. For getting around by foot, walking is a good option for many areas of San Francisco. Bikes and scooters will help cover longer distances. Shared ride services like taxis, Ubers and Lyft are available throughout the city. Many of those services offer rentals of bikes, scooters, mopeds and ebikes.
