If you guessed that Nob Hill was one of San Francisco’s original “Seven Hills,” then you might just be a genius.

This trendy SF neighbourhood has to be at the top of your list when you come to town. Hop aboard one of the classic trolley cable cars and hit the town in style. Observe the lay of the land from the Top of the Mark while sipping a martini or travel to the islands at the Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar inside the Fairmont Hotel. Ready to go? We certainly think you are.
