Zeene, still can't get over how amazing, through and sensitively organized your videos are. The Travel channel, along with other local stations should pick you up, and I'm not just saying this. May your channel continue to grow, it's well deserved! Thank you.
Aww, thanks Brenda! Glad you enjoy them. :)
Hello Zeene! Thank you so much for covering and answering all of my questions...! You’re doing such a great job this is amazing 😉 bonne journée ou bonne soirée !
Merci bien! Hope that helps and let me know if you have any other questions. 👍
Thanks so much!!
😄😄😄
thank you so much this is so informative!
For the famous streets question, I was thinking Haight Street in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. Not really a "grande" street, but the neighborhood is famous.
Good suggestion 👍 Definitely a more manageable walk!
Hi Zeene, thank you so much for your awesome videos! For your next questions episode could you give me some recommendations for nice walks/strolls in SF during the summer in safe areas for a single female traveller? Thank you!!
This was very informative and helpful. This will be my reference guide for future trip in bay area. Thank you for all the works you do.🙏
💕
Maiden Lane also has the only Frank Lloyd Wright building in SF! Great to take a walking tour and hear about the Barbary Coast.
Awesome recommendation - thank you!
Hey Zeene! A few more questions if you don't mind answer in your next video!
1) What's the best way to minimize annoying the locals? What are common mistakes/faux pas' tourists make?
2) I saw your video on renting a bike and taking in to the GG bridge! How much does a rental bike ride cost from Fisherman's wharf to golden gate and back? Are there bike lanes on the roads?
Thanks!
Will include it!
Thank you for answering my questions. I was a bit worried that we may have a wasted day over Thanksgiving, but I have lots of options. Looking forward to experiencing a Thanksgiving dinner and some Black Friday madness 😂
Your videos are very informative and are a huge help to plan our family vacation.
Glad to help and have an awesome time out here. :) Let me know if you have any other questions.
Hi Julie, sorry quick correction - Alcatraz is closed on Thanksgiving :) Cheers, Zeene
Aloha. I'm arriving from Hawaii in March after 11pm. I'd always book Super shuttle round trip as a cheap shared shuttle. Well, they went out of business and the only left stops pick up at SFO at 10pm. Available now is Lyft and I could still book a ride with a shuttle van from hotel to SFO when I leave in the afternoon. Any cheap shuttle van services 24/7 available to suggest or what's some tips to going from baggage claim to where to get to Lyft pick up spot? I hear people have to go to a specific place for ride share like Lyft or Uber at the airport. I have two luggage and carry ons
Hello! Looking forward to your show! Yes, sadly Uber and Lyft have wiped them out. Try Airport Express which is a comparable service. Also, if you do Lyft, select the pool option which will lower your rate and accomplishes the same thing as a shuttle service. Normally pick ups are done curbside on the Departures level but there may be a few that pick up on Level 5 in the garage. When you call your car the app will give you specific directions along with a map on where to go to meet your driver. Also the driver's number in case you miss each other. Hope that helps!
'Outlet' shopping malls are a joke for sales.
😂 I confess to being an outlet mall addict myself! I will agree that the sales are not what they used to be and now there are these "outlet specific" products nowadays that are cheap quality. Some of the luxury brands do have decent sales but even with the discount they are still way out of my budget!
