Filip is amazing! His San Francisco history knowledge and story telling skills are superb! We were totally fascinated by all the fact he communicated. Time just flew by. Highly recommend even if you're local.
I am not sure if this is the right site. But I booked a free SF night walking tour with Omar. I was the only one and it was a great experience. Omar is really great. I had a nice time.
Filip was AMAZING!!! This isn’t a basic sight seeing tour of typical SF landmarks, rather this tour dug deeper into the history of the city, global connections and how SF is still shaped by the spirit and values of those who embarked upon its shores nearly 200 years ago. The time passes so fast because we walk a little bit then pause to stop and engage. You get to explore avenues around the city that even locals might miss. Definitely bring water, dress in layers and wear good walking shoes. Autumn was the best time of year to come on this tour because the weather was mild and sunny. Plenty of photo opportunities. Book the tour with Filip if possible, his storytelling is unmatched! Also, I recommend the night walking tour of Chinatown from this same company!
Flilp was phenomenal! I’ve lived in the Bay Area and am originally from Oakland, CA, but I had never learned so much about San Francisco until taking this tour. Flilp provides an exceptional level of detail and historical facts that I have not encountered in any other tour I’ve taken, despite having participated in walking tours across the country. His attention to detail, perfect timing, and thoughtful consideration for both his guests and the neighborhoods we visited are unparalleled. I will be sharing this tour and Flilp as a guide with my over 5,000 clients, as I believe many others will also benefit from this experience. Bravo to this outstanding company and to the people who understand the importance of delivering excellent customer service and running a well-organized business.
This was one of the best FreeTour walking tours i have done. Filip was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It starts at Union Sq goes through China town, Finance District and ends a Ferry Building. It was great to get the history of SF as well as fun little facts about buildings and parts of SF. Highly recommend!
Filip is a very nice guy and very good guide. He has a lot of information about San Francisco and he tells that in a very good way. Enjoyed the every moment of the tour
Filip was one of the best city guides we have experienced. He covered it all from architecture to past history as well as the future of SF. He embodied both humor and passion. It was a quick 2.5 hour tour.
Filip was an excellent guide - extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Spoke with passion, high energy and no little humour, throughout this fascinating tour. Learned so much and enjoyed it!
The free tour of the Mission and Castro neighborhoods in San Francisco is great! Victoria the guide explained everything great and is super nice. I loved the experience. It was my first free tour. I highly recommend it because, apart from meeting people, you learn a lot of things that if you just walk around you will never know. Thank you very much to Victoria!
We did the Free Walking tour of SF- that doesn’t seem to be an option- Filip was our guide. Really insightful and so interesting . What an amazing history this city has. High recommend - thank you Filip
