What to do and see in Mission District, California (CA): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

June 13, 2021 Kiesha Cripe

Every neighborhood in San Francisco has its own personality, from the hippie chic of the Upper Haight to the hipster grit of the Mission. The Marina district boasts trendy bistros and postcard-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge, while Noe Valley offers quaint and quiet boutiques. Wave hello to the sea lions at Pier 39, and sample local cheese and charcuterie at the Ferry Building. Sit in on a yoga session in Dolores Park or marvel at the Dutch Windmill across from Ocean Beach.

Reviewed By 123471 - Reykjavik, Iceland

I travelled from overseas to California in October 2019 and decided to save on luggage by not bringing my own camping equipment. I found Last Minute Gear online and decided to give it a try. I rented a large tent and a camping stove along with cooking utensils. Everything worked perfectly from ordering via communications to delivery of the equipment (from a locker with 24 hours access and wifi access!) and it was all in good condition. I wholeheartedly recommend these guys! Already looking forward to the next camping trip!
