Visa awarded them the $137.98! We phoned the tour company twice from the meeting site before the tour deadline cause no one showing up. Once after the tour time, 2 PM. Finally at 2:20 we left the meeting site - "Cafe de La Presse at Grant and Bush." We were disappointed to miss the tour but more disappointed in the tour company for stealing our money! Do not let them bamboozle you like they did us. Money was taken by LOOK TOURS of Las Vegas as the underwriter, "The Friendly Tour Company."

I feel like those tours are the better one because I have been on tours where you pay upfront and felt it could have been better, anyways. Our tour met us at the square, was on time and easy to spot. She went on an overview of the things we would see/do and told us to feel free to ask for questions/suggestions. She mentioned that it was gonna take about an hour and how much distance we would cover etc. I don't remember the ladies name but she has been a local for almost her whole life and you can tell she loved telling people the history of her city. Chinatown was beautiful, that was probably my favorite part and also getting to go into a paper store where they buy paper goods to 'send them to heave' for the loved ones that have passed away was pretty cool. I got to see the narrow alleys of Chinatown and hear about the opium dens, I saw the original fortune cookie factory. It was all amazing. I for sure would go on this tour again

The City just wouldn't be San Francisco without the inimitable Moni Cash (I guess it would just be…read morethe West Bay). Moni's keen eye and attention to detail really bring each and every block to life in all its historical glory and present cultural significance. She has lived and breathed San Francisco for over 20yrs in ways that most longtime locals can only pretend. Her stories are *very* entertaining, and downright lyrical. Her tours are recommended for new visitors, repeat customers, and locals alike!

He's a true part of the neighborhood, having lived there for decades, and as we walked to the various spots on the tour at least half a dozen people greeted him by name.

And seeing some of the iconic sites like the Grateful Dead house and Janis Joplin's house, plus lesser known sites like the SLA safehouse, was really fascinating. I recommend the The Haight Ashbury Flower Power Walking Tour with Stan Flouride!

Our first day we got oriented thanks to the classic downtown tour that takes you through the city heart at a very manageable pace....seeing things I guarantee you'll never find on your own. Our guide Josh is a SF native and simply the best guy giving 200% to help visitors share his pride in this magnificent city. You visit the various barrios (e.g., Mission, Haight, Castro, civic center, golden gate park, etc.) learning about their history & challenges due to gentrification. This is what I really appreciated from Josh...his native viewpoint on what's happening to hs city with all the tech worker riches. 2) On the next day we returned for their Golden Gate bridge & Sausalito bike ride....this time Staci led us across the most famous bridge in the world (??). Again, WONDERFUL....her detour past the Palace of Fine Arts was really appreciated too. But the ride isn't all you get, his shop had available sunscreen (NO charge....where will you find that) and spare wind breakers for tourists like me who underdress for the chill SF winds). And once your ride end there are the local restaurant & bar guides for free to plan the rest of your stay ---and avoid tourist trap rip-offs. HIGHLY recommend for your first day in the city--this firm one of the best I've ever had in world-wide travelling :)
