Places for aging parents to visit in SF?
 
My parents are visiting SF for a few days, and I'm trying to figure out where to take them. They've gone to the main tourist sites (Fisherman's Wharf, Union Square, etc.). They are mobile, but they can't handle a lot of activity -- no walking across the GG Bridge or climbing up and down steps at Coit Tower. Other than museums, can you think of anyplace they'd enjoy visiting?

Have they been to wine country?

Sausalito. Petaluma. Paramount. Can they take a tour bus? There is not much walking.

Ferry to Sausalito and/or Tiburon. Nice lunch there. Nice trip.

I'd love to take them to the wine country, but they don't drink. I think the ferry and Sausalito might be a nice idea. Thanks!

If they have not been to Muir Woods I believe they would enjoy it. A lot of it is just flat walking at their own pace and they would love the Redwoods! If your Dad has a golden age card they will get in free as it is a National Park.
