The Twin Peaks are two hills with an elevation of about 904 feet that are located in San Francisco, California. They are the second highest hills in San Francisco, after Mount Davidson. Twin Peaks Boulevard is the only road that goes to the summit of the peaks, and on the north side of the hills it connects to Christmas Tree Point, where there is a parking lot and an observation area which offers unobstructed views of most San Francisco and the San Francisco Bay.
One of the city's many reservoirs is located to the north of the hills, at the east end of Palo Alto Avenue.
The Muni Metro Twin Peaks Tunnel runs beneath the Twin Peaks, linking Downtown with West Portal and the southwestern part of the city. There is no public transportation service directly to the summit of the peaks, but the 37 Corbett Muni line stops near a path that goes up the hills on Crestline Drive.
The name Twin Peaks can also be applied to the neighborhood surrounding the hills.

I haven't been there for a while, but think it's kind of mid-San Francisco. If you take 280 N from Daly City, take the 19th St. exit and stay to the right. You'll wind up on Junipero Serra Blvd. After there, make a left on Portola Dr., and a right on Twin Peaks Blvd.

Not really an answer but another question. How easy is is to get to Twin Peaks for somone from out of town that will be using public transportation and taxis to get around?

Between the Bay and the ocean. Kind of in the middle. Has a huge radio tower (the Sutro Tower), can't miss it.
