What happened to Rushtix? It use to be focused on event planning. Before covid, this was the…read morecoolest service to get to go to all the fun events in San Francisco and throughout the Bay Area. I was hoping it would be like that again after the epidemic. the focus appears to be now online interactive event services and it is far different then it once was. Apparently, there are those people who love the way it is now as according to recent reviews on their website but I miss the chance of actually going to events. I do not want to participate on virtual events online, I want to actually go to events. If I recall, there was another event planning service called Up & Out that has long gone but they had some major problems that led to apparently permanently closing the business from what I remember but cannot find any information about it anymore on the Internet.

I've only used RushTix once so far, but the experience was super easy and really great overall…read more RushTix lets you see events for cheaper than entry (or even free, by using their token system). I went to see a ballet for free the other night. All I had to do was print something out online. My tickets were already arranged and I had great seats, without any worry about whether or not my tickets would work (like some other companies...). All in all, I would definitely recommend RushTix to the average person looking for discounts on great events in their area.

Being a jaded local, no way am I going to brave the crowds & traffic jams at Pier 39. And then I…read morewas given a paid assignment to document the event. Instant motivation. Thinking myself super clever, I drove over there at 7pm. I'm an idiot. You need to park somewhere close at noon, & spend the day walking around, eating, & shopping. Otherwise, total traffic jam. Forget Uber, it's still a car, & you'll still be stuck in traffic. Best bet is MUNI, but even then you'll be walking a bit. If you want any chance of a seated viewing spot, again, arrive early, or prepare to stand in place & look up. Luckily, everyone has the same view. 2023 was magic, as the first time in a while Carl the Fog failed to appear. 90% of the people I met didn't have a clue how lucky they were this year because they didn't live here. I met folks from Fresno, Illinois, Columbia, Panama, Scotland, much etc. They were tourists who heard this was the place to be. And it was. Everyone I spoke to was happy they came here, not one complained about our San Francisco "Doom Spiral".

This is one of the many attractions at Pier 39. They have the flyer ride, they have a "7D…read moreexperience" which is like a "shooter" game on a giant screen, and then they also have two "escape rooms." Everybody here was very friendly. I did the flyer ride. It is about a seven or eight minute ride, It was a lot of fun. It's one of those where you sit in the seats, and then the floor drops out from under you, and it is like you are flying over the city. The wind blows in your face, and when you were going over the water, you feel just a little bit of a spray. I don't want to give anything away, but it does take you all over the city. It was really a lot of fun. The only reason I'm taking off a star, is because the flyer ride is a bit expensive. It's $14 per person, adult or child. That wasn't too bad for myself, but if you are more than two or three people, it can add up. Regardless, it was well worth the money for myself to do. I wouldn't come back to see the same movie, but if they changed it, I would ride it again.. This ride is also part of the "San Francisco city pass. I had fun.. Thanks!

With unseasonably warm spring break weather we decided to give it a try and booked via Groupon which gave a $30 discount. The tour was an hour and absolutely worth it !

The boat is clean, roomy and takes a great route under the Golden Gate, past Alcatraz and towards the Bay Bridge offering beautiful views! Well worth it!

Just like their pre-season games, they run a very smooth system. Lines move efficiently at entry, and once inside, navigating the arena never feels crowded, even with a large crowd. After the game, while many arenas experience bottlenecks at exit, Chase Center has plenty of exit points, allowing everyone to leave smoothly.

My brother, sister-in-law and nephew were going and I decided to get a last-minute ticket up in the nosebleeds. Typically I don't love going to really large shows and sitting at the very top, but I thought it would be fun to go with family. I'm sure my experience would be way different if I got in the premium areas. The sounds and visuals were still fun though. The new arena itself was pretty amazing. Pretty organized and great art around in different areas of the arena. Even though the place was packed, I still thought it was pretty easy to navigate around. It was also easy to find my seat. Would love to come back at some point to watch a Golden State Warriors game. I saw a game or two at the old Arena and would love to see how it would compare.

We came out and spent a couple of hours here, and it ended up being such a fun experience. She got her photo booth pictures, and we spent the rest of our time exploring the museum.

I would definitely recommend visiting if you're looking for something unique and fun to do. It's also cheap which was pretty cool. Can't beat that.

I was absolutely obsessed with this place I had to go twice during our trip in SF. As someone who…read moreloves strange and antique collectibles, this was amazing. I'm always fascinated by the time period from 1880s-1920s and the history of how people lived and were entertained back then--this is definitely the place to learn more about it and immerse yourself into history. This collection has over 200 working antique coin operated machines to play with (some even older than my grandparents). I had so much fun using them, taking tons of videos, and feeling like I stepped back in time. It's free to enter and most machines cost 25¢-50¢, but some still cost only 10¢. There's machines that will convert your bills to quarters. This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip!
