Plan

Menu: sf_sights.md. Items below are agreed; everything else is still on the menu.

  • ~8:30 AM Drive south to Silicon Valley (~45 min)
  • 9 AM Apple Park Visitor Center, Cupertino — rooftop terrace over the ring, AR campus model, store
  • Late morning Google Visitor Experience, Mountain View (15 min) — optional Stanford campus walk after
  • ~1–2 PM Drive back north on I-280; stops below are optional, in route order
  • Optional: Twin Peaks — city panorama, 15-min stop, right off I-280. Navigate to Christmas Tree Point
  • Optional: Painted Ladies — 10 min north-east; short stop at Alamo Square
  • Optional: Lands End — 20 min west via Geary; Sutro Baths ruins + coastal trail (~45 min short version), Ocean Beach next door. Park at Lands End Lookout
  • ~5:45 PM Drive over the Golden Gate Bridge to Marin (20–25 min from Lands End in commute traffic)
  • Sunset (~7:08 PM) Marin Headlands / Battery Spencer — Golden Gate Bridge panorama (car). Navigate to the parking lot, 3-min walk up. Small lot: arrive by ~6:15 PM. Stay for blue hour. Windy and cold — jackets

Notes

  • Alcatraz — ferry from Pier 33, ~2.5–3 hrs, no car needed. Sells out weeks ahead — reserve early if wanted
  • Monday: some museums (incl. the de Young, Computer History Museum) are closed
  • Verify Apple / Google visitor center hours before going
  • Bridge toll is electronic, southbound only (on the way back). SIXT bills it with a fee unless a toll pass is added at pickup
  • If the Battery Spencer lot is full: shoulder parking up Conzelman Rd, or Hawk Hill 5 min further
