What travelers are saying
- Sugah-n-PopsHope Mills, NC1,502 contributionsThis had to be the most difficult stadium to get access to mobile tickets. I had to download the 49ers app to have access to my tickets, which I bought through ticket master. Yes, another Cowboy game and a horrible lost 42 to 10. Very disappointing. The stadium is nice great view even from the nosebleed area. If you are buying food or drinks know that you will send a lot of money that is just the nature of the beast when attending an NFL game. There is parking outside of the stadium, $60.00 and about a ½ mile walk. Take your time leaving the stadium, because the traffic pattern is slow moving.Written October 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sarah GHarrogate, UK1,490 contributionsProbably the best place we visited in Silicon Valley in terms of things to look at, and free. We did a self guided drive with commentary, which was a great way to see the area, and this was one of the stops.Written April 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michael VSaint Louis, MO835 contributionsA wonderful place to celebrate Mass
- - - - - - - -
Our daughter and I visited San Jose, CA, and the Bay area one mid-October weekend. We had a good time.
Sunday morning, we celebrated Mass at the Santa Clara Mission Church, on the campus of Santa Clara University.
The priest's homily pointed us to how Scripture calls us to ...
Perseverance...
... applies to students at mid-terms...
... applies to us all,
including...
Moses needed help to eep his arms raised over the battle with Amalek
St. Paul calling us to pray unceasingly
Jesus and the parable of the unjust judge rendering for the persistent widow
1. Strength together
2. Scriptures
3. Pray without ceasing
I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus,
who will judge the living and the dead,
and by his appearing and his kingly power:
proclaim the word;
be persistent whether it is convenient or inconvenient;
convince, reprimand, encourage through all patience and teaching.St. Paul, 2 Tm 3:14-4:2
Thank you, Father, for letting us celebrate Mass with you and the rest of the congregation.

- Jennifer SSan Jose, CA7 contributionsWe took our kids (6 and 10) and had a good time. I came here trying to find info on food--for a meal, it currently costs about $18 plus drink plus tax. Buying a meal plan is also about $18, but comes with the (small) drink.
However, we got two Premium meal plans and ate in shifts. It came out to $65 or so and we got 6 meals from our two plans. We could have gotten 8, since we were there all day, but we were all full and burnt-out on theme park food. (The food is typical for a theme park, nothing fancy, but it works.)Written August 31, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It was very interesting for the 49er fan in my husband. It ends in you going into the store which thankfully he found nothing he couldn't buy on line for less, pretty pricy items.Written October 7, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- One Sky For AllSan Jose, CA303 contributionsOur family used to come to this park with older children almost every day and loved to spend here birthdays, family events and holidays over the past 20 years. Now we are coming with our younger children and park is still we’ll maintained. They have beautiful playground for younger children. Older children have rustic climbing and hiding areas over the bridge. Lots of spaces for people who wants to exercise. Scenic pond is wild life refuge for migrating birds with lots of ducklings. Grass is full of flowers. Near by is well known swimming center for synchronized Olympic swimmers and divers. Santa Clara library is amazing resource for local communities. Barbecue area is full of blooming wisterias. Major fireworks on 4th of July happened in this park. Every corner of this park is loved dearly. Highly recommended for all ages. Very safe environment.Written April 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- miniFremont, CA212,260 contributionsI went to see the Santa Clara Convention Center. The location is close to Levi's Stadium. A youth conference was going on. The Hyatt Regency Hotel is connected to the Convention Center.
The center is two stories high. There are escalators and stairs.
Its a nice convention center for the Santa Clara aea.Written December 31, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TheLeongOhanaUnited States7,505 contributionsUlistac Natural Area was located off Lick Mill Boulevard with street parking available. The entrance was dominated by a large wooden sign and a bit understated. It’s an easy walk from nearby homes if one was lucky enough to live nearby.
The paths were gravel, flat and well maintained. Signs were posted in certain areas highlighting the natural features of the land. Most helpful were the poison oak warnings so we did not let our dog stray off the path.
While the sun was out, a chill was still in the air so we kept a good pace. We made our way to the back and walked along the Guadalupe River for a bit. Here we saw Levi Stadium in the distance but the pumping station was a bit of an eyesore. After awhile we turned around and meandered around the many interconnected trails. In a clearing, big tree trunk parts were arranged in circles and some kids were jumping from one to another chasing each other.
Since it was still winter, no flowers were in bloom so it was a little drab but the clear blue sky made up for it.
Still having the fresh air and open space was a good get away from civilization for a short while.Written February 13, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I love that the exhibits change so each time I travel here I always have new things to see. Brought my grandkids (14 and 17) and both enjoyed it.Written April 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
