My wife and I live in a Victorian home in Texas, so we decided to take the Victorian Home Walk on Saturday morning in San Francisco. Jay was extremely informative, explaining the three periods of Victorian architecture and examining the details of the homes. Starting...More
Thank you for a wonderful review! I am glad you enjoyed lunch after the tour. It’s a good reminder to folks that after the tour we end on Union Street which is full of great lunch spots!
My husband and I live in a historic home in Ann Arbor, MI, so we decided to take this tour. It was so cool! Jay was super informative and made for a great host. I would highly recommend this tour. Also, the tour is more...More
I loved this walking tour, I honestly learnt so much about San Francisco's architecture as well as its history. The tour felt like an easy stroll but was jam packed with information and plenty to see. Definitely more than worthwhile and I thoroughly recommend it...More
This tour was great! First of all, Jay has a wonderful, relaxed personality combined with an impressive and extensive knowledge of his subject. On the day of the tour, we simply showed up at the corner of Post and Powell at the appointed time and...More

9 of us were at Union Square today ready to go but the guide didn’t show. We texted him and he said he was sick. It should have been cancelled on the website to save us the trouble.
I woke up with a bad case of the flu and could not show up for tour. Those who called me that morning understood. Beyond my control. So sorry.
Jay has this tour dialed in. His meanderings were pure magic. I learned so much from him, and now have new "eyes" to take in the city's architecture. He has the tour designed in such a way that you never go up any hills, but...More
After living in SF for nearly 10 years, I took this tour and can honestly say it completely changed the way I view the city and it's beautiful Victorians. I learned so much from Jay, who was friendly and very well-informed. I highly recommend this...More
