The package includes round-trip airfare on a major carrier such as American Airlines and a three-night stay at the flashy, modern Clift Hotel, whose 363 rooms were designed by Philippe Starck in shades of grey and lavender. The Clift is located on Geary Street, right by the shops and restaurants of bustling Union Square. Its fusion restaurant, Asia de Cuba, is an opulent mahogany-and-leather outpost of the New York branch. Add extra nights for $118 per person per night.

Fisherman's Wharf, Union Square, and Golden Gate Park are among the highlights of a three-and-a-half-hour sightseeing tour by Gray Line.

What Makes This a Deal? The lowest round-trip fare we've found for San Francisco in early December is $109 per person from Los Angeles (American). For about $300 more, Leisure Link covers the airfare, three-night stay, sightseeing tour, and airport/hotel transfers.
