Your best BART summer (by BART's biggest fans)

Triptych of BART summer guides

This summer, we invited some of our biggest fans to show us their favorite things to do by BART during break. School is back in session, but you can recreate their itineraries no matter the season. 

Today, we released this summer's final guide, featuring BART expert Bella. Watch it here

Bella, ZaynMiloRobert, and Lucy took us all over the Bay Area over the past few months. We went cloud chasing in Daly City, bought bagels and books in Berkeley, took a trip to the Nintendo Store in San Francisco, toured some “aesthetic stations,” and traveled to Target for school supplies.  

All of our guides participated in the Autism Transit Project. Each spring, BART invites local youth on the spectrum to record announcements that play in stations during Autism Acceptance Month in April. 

Find the guides at bart.gov/summer and on our YouTube channel.
