So You Wanna Escape Los Santos and Hit Up San Fierro? A Tourist's Guide (Kinda)
Ah, Los Santos. Sunshine, beaches, and the constant threat of gang warfare. Don't get me wrong, it's a vibrant city, but sometimes you just gotta get outta dodge. Maybe those pesky Ballas are on your tail, or maybe you just heard there's a killer deal on hats in San Fierro (they've got a real... unique... fashion sense there). Whatever your reason, here's the lowdown on ditching Los Santos and cruising into San Fierro:

| How To Go To San Fierro In GTA San Andreas |
The Scenic Route (But Not Really)
This ain't exactly hopping on a Greyhound bus. San Fierro is surrounded by, well, a whole lot of nothing. You can't just waltz on over there. No, sir (or madam). San Fierro likes to play a little game of "unlock me" first. The only way in is through good ol' fashioned story progression.
The Grunt Work: Missions Are Your Ticket
Strap yourself in, because you're gonna be running errands for some, shall we say, interesting characters. Helping CJ rise to the top of the food chain involves a whole lot of, well, odd jobs. From spray-painting rival gang tags (don't worry, it's good exercise!) to torching a hippy's weed farm with a flamethrower (that escalated quickly), you gotta do what you gotta do.
Tip: Check back if you skimmed too fast.
Just Keep Completing Missions, Dude
There's no magic number here, but trust me, you'll know when San Fierro opens its arms (or gates) to you. Just keep grinding those missions, and eventually, the game will be like, "Alright, alright, you've earned it. Go nuts in San Fierro."
Bonus Tip: Don't Tick Off Sweet
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
Sweet isn't exactly known for his chill vibes. Messing up missions or just generally annoying him might delay your San Fierro escape. So, be a good homie, alright?
