San Francisco - die bunte Stadt der Liebe, der Fahrzeuge (egal ob uralte Cabelcars, alte Lovetour-VW-Busse für die genialsten Stadtbesichtigungen ever, bunte Straßenbahnen oder ultramoderne, autonom fahrende Taxis), des bunten Nationalitätenmixes und der Fortune Cookies (die angeblich hier erfunden wurden und sooo gut auf Micha - oben - und mich passen ☺️). Einfach eine Stadt zum Wohlfühlen! 🥰☺️#reisen #sanfrancisco #sflovetours #einestadtzumverlieben❤️

🎶 If you′re going to San Francisco... 🎶
Es ist immer wieder schwer, sich zu entscheiden, was man als erstes in dieser pulsierenden Metropole macht...
📸 Ganz gleich aus welcher Perspektive - die Golden Gate Bridge ist einfach immer ein beeindruckender Anblick! 🌉
📸 Am Fisherman`s Wharf kann man die Aussicht auf Alcatraz genießen und die Seelöwen beobachten, die sich am Pier 39 sonnen. 🦭
📸 Bunt, aufregend und voller Überraschungen - in Haight-Ashbury gibt es einiges zu entdecken. Noch heute spürt man den Spirit des "Summer of Love". Ein Highlight für die Musikfans unter uns: die Wohnhäuser von Jimi Hendrix und Janis Joplin. ☮️
📸 Das älteste und größte Chinatown in Nordamerika. 🇨🇳
Mit sflovetours haben wir übrigens eine ganz besondere Stadtrundfahrt fernab der Touristenmassen gemacht...in einem alten VW Bus aus den 70ern und dem weltbesten Guide überhaupt. Solltet ihr bei eurem Besuch auch unbedingt machen!
San Francisco ist immer wieder einen Besuch wert! 😍

A MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER
I simply can’t imagine a better way of experiencing going up and down the hills of San Francisco than in a VW-hippie bus. The allure of these adorable V-Dubs are only matched by the marvelous sights and stories encapsulated by this ever-changing city. People wanting to ride in a VW bus are kindred spirits who appreciate a small, family-like experience with guides that love storytelling as much as they love living in this city. These are genuine experiences, befriending authentic people, making extraordinaire memories. ~ Allan
