Your San Francisco Explorer Pass may be used for a 1-day Muni Visitor Passport, which includes a full day of unlimited rides on the cable cars, muni trains, and muni buses.

Both are just a short walk from the cable car boarding locations.

What happens if an attraction is closed or a tour is cancelled due to weather or other problem?
While we do our best to ensure that all attractions are available, events happen that are out of our control.

If an attraction is closed, or cannot be visited for some reason, we know you'll find a fun alternative in your guidebook!
