    Wow I don’t really know where to start. Mark has so much knowledge about local history and culture and is passionate about food. He has so much to give to anyone who spends time with him. The mural tour was very emotional. The food was given historical context. We absolutely loved this tour and would definitely recommend it. Without it we may have missed the Mission completely and our visit to San Francisco would have been the poorer for it.

    Scott did an amazing job teaching my family about the rich history of San Francisco and Chinatown. The food he had us sample was excellent and a wide variety... from Peking Duck to fortune cookies. While the tour is 3 hours, it flew by and there were plenty of places to stop and rest and to use the facilities if need be. My two sons especially enjoyed the tour (6 and 9) and so did their grandparents (65).

    Small group, pickup from hotel, knowledgeable and fun guide that makes trip interesting. We are not fans of groups, but this is an excellent compromise with pricy private tour but for the price of group tour. Special thank you to driver/guide The Joe.

    My wife and I spent 2 1/2 days in San Francisco this past September. My wife had never been to San Francsico and wanted to see as much as possible. This tour certainly lived up to our expectations. Mark our guide was extremely knowledgeable about SF having lived there for the past 40 years. This is a full day tour that leverages cable cars, city busses, and footsteps to see all the wonderful neighborhoods and districts of San Francisco. As Mark takes you through each neighborhood, he intertwines the history and back stories of each area. A wonderful, long and exhausting day, but I strongly recommend this tour for first timers to San Francisco.

    We have been on many food tours in lots of cities. This was great, we would have never found out about these places on our own. Learned so much and given so many recommendations on places to check out another day!

    Michael was a fabulous guide with a wonderful passion for the history of San Francisco. His weaving of history with the stories of hauntings was both informative and entertaining! He was also patient with us as we walked up to Nob Hill. Word of warning, quite steep. Michael also had us to use EMF Meters on the walk. Quite fascinating! Can’t wait to do again!

    We had a great experience that far exceeded our expectations, and felt this tour was a very good value, especially as the cost for our family was about the same as a bus tour. Pablo was an exceptional guide who made suggestions for some additional stops and sights (Lombard Street, Coit Tower, Palace of the Arts in addition to Sausalito, Golden Gate and Muir Woods), and he was so kind and accommodating too (also a very safe driver, which was appreciated). I’d highly recommend this tour and Pablo. Thank you!

    We had a great time with Julie Brown as our guide in Chinatown. So much great food, so fun to explore China town. Julie was very knowledgeable and helped us make the most of our town. Our whole family enjoyed!

    I highly recommend this tour if you like history, spooky tales and pubs. Our tour guide, Jamie, was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The walk was slow paced and manageable. It wasn’t rushed at all.
    The small group size made it easy to hear Jamie. Stopping at the pubs to get the low down of days gone by was captivating and being able to sit and have a bevy was a great way to get to know others in the group.
    Thank you, Jamie. Hope to see you again.
    5 star tour for sure!

    Our guide, Viv, was fun and well informed.

    The selected restaurants had wonderful food and wine.

    We were introduced to the best clam chowder we’ve ever had.

    We began with a Chandon bubbly and a cheese plate, moved to the restaurant with chowder accompanied by a lovely rose, and to Poggio for delicious gnudi with a great Scarpatta Barbera and ended with a bread pudding like no other with white port on an outdoor deck. Everywhere the views were great and the guide a good conversationalist.

    We had such a great time with Rob who showed us around and respectfully provided insight into the darkest corners of Haight Ashbury. A really personable and informative approach made it feel like we were hanging out with friends.

    A highlight of our week long trip to the city.

    Diolch / Thanks!
