Top Culture Spots in Oakland

Don’t forget to check out the Ferry Building Marketplace nearby for some great local food options. It’s a bit of a walk, but totally worth it!

Consider renting a bike! It’s a fun way to explore the area, and you can easily cruise along the waterfront without feeling rushed.

I recommend bringing a camera for the stunning views of the waterfront, especially at sunset. You’ll want to capture the vibe!

If you’re planning to visit the restaurants, I advise looking for happy hour deals. You can snag some good bites at lower prices, especially in the evening.

If you want to save money, look for combo tickets online that include other nearby attractions. I did this and it made a huge difference!

My advice is to bring a water bottle! The ship can get hot and buying drinks on board can be pretty pricey. Staying hydrated is key.

I highly recommend taking the self-guided audio tour. It gives you cool insights and history that you’d miss out on otherwise. Just make sure to download it beforehand, I had a little trouble with WiFi

I recommend visiting during the week if you can. The crowds are way less, and you can actually take your time to appreciate the architecture without feeling rushed.
