Getting To and Around Berkeley
Berkeley is straightforward to discover and not using a automobile. For our go to, we flew into Oakland International Airport and hopped on BART, which took us to Downtown Berkeley (and our lodge).
AIRPORTS: There are three worldwide airports to fly into.
- Oakland International Airport (OAK) is the simplest and closest to fly into. You can hop on BART and get off at one among three stations in Berkeley.
- San Francisco International Airport (SFO) – Another good choice if flights are extra accessible from your property. BART may even take you to city.
- San Jose International Airport (SJC) – You gained’t have the ability to make it to Berkeley through BART, but it surely’s another choice in the event you hire a automobile.
BART, or the Bay Area Rapid Transit, has three stations in Berkeley: Downtown Berkeley, North Berkeley, and Ashby Stations. If you’re flying into OAK or SFO, it’s an ideal choice since you may trip it to city. It’s additionally an effective way to get to and from San Francisco, Oakland, Walnut Creek, and Concord.
We didn’t use it as soon as we arrived on the town, but it surely made transferring to and from the airport straightforward. PRO TIP – If you have got an iPhone, add the Clipper card to your pockets to rapidly reload your card.
