Traveling to Berkeley, CA

How to Get Here

I am located about 14 miles from Oakland International Airport, 23 miles from San Francisco International Airport (SFO), and 45 miles from San Jose Mineta International Airport (SJC). All three are accessible by the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) public transportation system.

The closest BART metro stop to my home studio is the North Berkeley BART, a mere 5-block walk away! This stop is on both the Red Line and the Orange Line.

Where to stay.

There are countless hotels, Airbnbs, and VRBOs all across Berkeley. Your closest option to the studio would be the Aiden by Best Western Berkeley in Central Berkeley. There are also quite a few restaurants and shops within walking distance. (I am a huge foodie, so ask me for recs when you come!)

Transportation

Whether you’d prefer to rent a car, use a ride share app, or rely on public transportation is completely up to you! All three are easily done across the entire Bay Area, including in Berkeley.

Pro-tip though: while the Bay may not have the most excellent of public transportation systems, basically all of the major attractions in the area are accessible by BART. So if you want to save some money and rely on the train or busses, mother nature would thank you!
