Getting Around
By MUNI
MUNI’s M-Line streetcar goes directly past SFSU to downtown, including the Castro District (Castro Station), St. Francis Lutheran Church (Church St. Station), the Cable Cars and other downtown sites (Powell St. Station).
MUNI fares are basically $1.50 per ride (including a transfer that is good for 90 minutes).
Cable Cars are $5.00 (transfers may not be used, but day passes may be).
Day passes are $11 for one day, $18 for 3 days.
For heavy duty sightseers, a $54 pass will include admission to several city museums and attractions as well as functioning as a MUNI pass.
Other modes of transportation
BART is the best connection to Oakland, Berkeley and other points in the East Bay. Fares vary with the length of the ride.
Taxicabs are available from several taxi companies by phone (Luxor, Yellow, City Cab are the most common). Fares are relatively high.
