Transportation: travel tips
To save money on transportation, you can buy a monthly ticket. But for tourists, one-, three- and seven-day passes (20, 31 and 40 USD) are more convenient. They're sold at Muni Ticket Sales at the corner of Market and Powell, Hyde and Beach streets.
It's also worth getting a CityPASS card. It gets you free admission to the Aquarium, the Academy of Sciences, a bay cruise, and has a number of other perks. With it, you can ride San Francisco's Muni transportation system for free. For San Francisco transportation pricing and admission to San Francisco attractions, see here.
