Wonderful walking tour and Joseph was the consummate guide! Fascinating history of the North Beach area with delicious food stops. Joseph’s love of the city came through in his presentation ~ highly recommend!
Hi Maria! Thank you for the kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and Joseph’s passion for the city—he’ll be thrilled to hear your feedback. Thanks for the recommendation!
Booked the tour for family. They showed up (20 minutes early) it had been cancelled and they didn’t even bother to tell us!
Hi Rebecca, We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience and lack of communication. This is not the experience we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention.
Interesting historical stories about San Fran, cool places to visit and snacks had. Great time and great host.
Hi Ron! Thank you for the wonderful review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the historical stories, cool spots, and snacks. So glad you had a great time with our host!
Joseph was a great tour guide! He was very knowledgeable, personable and just an all around fun guide. The Food Tour was great for my friend and I because as we're learning about a part of the city and walking the food breaks kept us energized.
Hi Teresa! Thank you for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed Joseph’s tour and the Food Tour experience. It’s great that the combination of learning and tasting kept you energized and entertained!
Our very knowledgeable guide took us on a fun fact filled walk in North Beach. There were 3 stops for food. One for antipasto at a restaurant (You could order wine or beer for an extra charge ) A slice of amazing pizza from a takeout window that we ate in the park while listening to the history of North Beach. Last stop was for creamy gelato. We left with knowing interesting facts about the neighborhood and full from delicious food.
Hi Dianna! Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour, the food stops, and learning about North Beach's history. We hope to welcome you again soon!
This is a very worthwhile walking tour. I would say there is more focus on history, than food. We learned a lot and had fun along the way. The stop at the Mona Lisa Restaurant for charcuterie and Golden Boy for pizza were great choices. I highly recommend the tour!
Joseph’s knowledge of the history of the North Beach area meant he brought to life things we wouldn’t have seen or found. Food was a great slice of American-Italian culture too!
Hi Heppen! We’re thrilled Joseph’s historical insights and the food experience enhanced your North Beach tour. Thank you for your wonderful feedback!
They cancelled the tour the day before without any explanation, so I did not get to go. It was a disappointment as I had little opportunity to make other plans
Hi W22480! We’re very sorry for the inconvenience and disappointment caused by the cancellation. We understand how frustrating this must have been and will work on improving our communication for the future.
Our tour guide did not show up. No text was sent . Total waste of time and cab ride to downtown. Tour operator said guide had to go to ER
Hi Cynthia! We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience caused. Unfortunately, the guide had a medical emergency, and we should have communicated better. We’ll work on improving our processes and would like to offer you a refund or a complimentary tour as an apology. Please contact us directly so we can make it right.
Great tour. Guide was very good and like able. Easy walk with no steep hills. Took time and stopped often. The food stops were very delicious.
Hi Gkshaw! Glad you enjoyed the tour! We're pleased to hear the guide was engaging and the walk easy, with plenty of stops. Great to know you enjoyed the food stops too!
