This carousel is located on Pier 39. It is located towards the end of the pier. First, before riding you will need to purchase a token. One token is $5 and three for $10. Depending on how many tokens you want you put your card in the corresponding credit card slot. Well, I didn't realize this and bought three tokens. Since I had three tokens I decided to ride one time with my son and let him ride twice. Note, parents are not free even if accompanying a small child.

The carousel itself is very nice. It looks like they tried to recreate an old carousel but to be honest on the inside all of the should be paintings look like plastic which was a slight let down. The carousel is in very nice condition and all of the animals looked nice. My son loved the carousel and would ride as many times as I would have let him.

The carousel was a nice attraction to visit on the Pier. I believe the price is about on par with other carousels in tourist attractions but at least at other locations the parents can ride with...

There's something for everyone but definitely appear that you can bring the family for a fun-filled day. I enjoyed the fact that I was there on a budget and was still able to purchase and acceptable amount of souvenirs take back home with me for my loved ones.

A variety of different food places, the best of sit down restaurants and fast food eateries . There's a Farmers Market, arcade for little ones, rides for little ones, a plethora of gift shops ranging from toys to souvenirs, high tech gadgets, and jewelry shops. I didn't get to go to the aquarium but for the next visit I definitely have some plans in mind.

And last but not least I enjoyed, and the children enjoyed watching sea lions sunning themselves viewable from the pier. FYI directly across the street, very conveniently located, was a...

Title: An Unforgettable Experience at Pier 39: Enjoying Sea Lion Views and Delightful Food by the Sea

Pier 39 proved to be an absolute gem, offering a captivating sight of sea lions and the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. The diverse array of eateries served up scrumptious food, and the plethora of games provided endless entertainment. The one-hour cruise from Pier 39 to witness the Golden Gate Bridge was a must-do activity, creating cherished memories with my partner in the magnificent city of San Francisco. Additionally, we ventured on a delightful walking tour through the vibrant streets, courtesy of City Experience. Now, we're eagerly planning a romantic dinner date on a cruise with my husband, looking forward to another unforgettable...

My 5-year-old loves carousel, the moment she realized there's a carousel at this location, we had to get a ride on it. This may, at times, go unnoticed but I believe it suggests how family-friendly Pier 39 is, welcoming everyone regardless of age. Also, this fun ride doesn't only welcome kids but also grown-ups. Hint- it's super fun. Tickets can be purchased from self-helping kiosks too near the carousel. If you're coming here with a child, there is just no way you can overlook this fun ride. The best part is that this carousel is two-tier, lower level & upper level. So you get to choose the spot that suits you the most. #Day2

This operate was rude and racist. The sign says riders under 42” tall need to be accompanied. My cousin from Taiwan accompanied her son on the carousel- and this man said she needed a ticket (we bought her son a ticket). She said she’s accompanying her son, and he then rudely made some comment that along the lines of “I told her in English.” WHAT kind of racist remark was that? Her English isn’t perfect, but you don’t say that to me.
