Our highlight was the ride on the cable car. The railway has been around since 1873. The great earthquake of 1906 destroyed all lines and during reconstruction mainly electric trams were built. Since 1964 only three lines have been in operation, which are particularly popular with tourists.

The San Francisco Cable Cars form the cable tram in San Francisco. Popular with tourists, the transportation system is one of the few moving National Historic Landmarks in the United States and is the only remaining cable tram in the world with detachable cars.

San Francisco's iconic cable cars are known for their ringing bells, panoramic views, and exhilarating descents down steep hills. A drive should be at the top of the list for visitors to San Francisco.
California Street is a good final stop.
