Teenager Joanna wants to shop.
Mom is interested in museums and history behind the city chosen for vacation.
With affordable accommodations, unique attractions, and an abundance of shops and restaurants, San Francisco can be the destination for a successful and enjoyable family vacation. Depending on personal interests and length of stay, family fun in the city could entail a bike ride through Golden Gate Park, a stroll along Fisherman's Wharf, or perhaps a boat ride to Alcatraz Island. Whatever the season, San Francisco is prepared to offer a delightful vacation for all family members. With 1,017 beautifully landscaped acres, Golden Gate Park can provide a full weekend's worth of activities for families. There are horse stables located in the park for horseback riding, a nine-hole golf course, and on Sundays, roads are closed to all vehicular traffic in the park to accommodate skaters and cyclists.
