About the author

OUR STORY
A beat-up old car, a few dollars in the pocket and a sense of adventure. In 1972 that’s all Tony and Maureen Wheeler needed for the trip of a lifetime – across Europe and Asia overland to Australia. It took several months, and at the end – broke but inspired – they sat at their kitchen table writing and stapling together their first travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Within a week they’d sold 1500 copies and Lonely Planet was born. One hundred million guidebooks later, Lonely Planet is the world’s leading travel guide publisher with content to almost every destination on the planet.

[Julie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Super helpful travel sized guide

[Sophie Crane · Rating 5 out of 5]

As usual with Lonely Planet everything you need in your pocket. San Francisco can be visited in a few days and everything was in this short guide

[Lynn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nice little travel pocket book that provides great information for just about any traveler to San Francisco. The guide provides information on transportation, places to stay, dining, bars, stores and places to see. I have been to San Francisco twice and my favorite was my trip to Alcatraz. The National Park System has done a fantastic job with their Alcatraz tour. The classic Golden Gate Bridge is iconic and now the Presidio is open for people to view. This guide is a great mini book to take with you. Don't forget to go to Fisherman's Wharf, but I doubt anyone would.

La prova del 9 deve essere ancora fatta, ma nel suo piccolo mi sembra guida abbastanza completa.

Gearing up for travel to San Francisco next weekend, departure point for cruising to Alaska. We’ll have about 36-40 hours to see as much as we can cram in.
