Ride overnight, wake up in the city
The 23:05 bus gets to San Francisco around 07:10 and the 00:55 around 08:30, so you save a night of hotel and arrive in the morning. In the search, the cheapest fare ($1,093 MXN) was the 11:20 departure.
San Francisco and the Bay
Downtown San Francisco rises over the bay, framed by the Golden Gate Bridge to the north. Both bus stops are in SoMa, within walking distance of Muni and BART connections and close to Caltrain, so getting to Union Square, the Embarcadero or the Mission is easy.
