The line to ride the cable car is never too long at the California Street Line. Go to Market, near the Embarcadero and the Ferry Building, right next to the Hyatt Regency Hotel, and it’s right there. It doesn’t go to Fisherman’s Wharf, and it doesn’t go through any neighborhoods, but it’s far easier and you won’t have to stand in line. If you want to transfer at the top of the hill where Powell (the jam-packed with tourists line) is, you may, but you risk not getting on if it’s full. Early mornings, later at night, or colder days are usually best if you don’t like to wait in line. For more details, visit this link to San Francisco Cable Car Information
