Start with the Caltrain to 4th and King. From there you have a few options:
1) Walk to fisherman's wharf. It's probably 3 or 4 miles, all flat, no navigational decisions to make (follow the edge of the city and don't fall into the bay).
2) Go to Market & Embarcadero (walking or, N Judah; roughly 1 mile) and take the F train up the Embarcadero to fisherman's wharf.
3) Go to Powell St (walk up 4th and jog left a half block on Market or take the N Judah), and get on the Cable Car which is touristy. One line that stops there goes straight to Fisherman's Wharf (via North Beach) and the other goes a few blocks west to the Aquatic Park (which is also nice).
Of course they can take different routs for getting there and getting back.
