Amazing time in San Francisco
"We had a last-minute trip to San Francisco and wanted to find a guide since my husband was a first timers. Michael was able to accommodate us within 24 hours. We are so appreciative. He was on time and extremely friendly and knowledgeable of this beautiful city. We walked through several areas where he showed us several places we would’ve never found on our own. Michael is a kind, knowledgeable, upbeat guide, and we would definitely recommend him. Thank you for showing us your wonderful city Michael. "

Beautiful and Interesting Tour
"I did the Presidio Park to Palace of Fine Arts & the Beach Tour with Agatha and thoroughly enjoyed the variety and beauty of the sights on this tour. The pace of the tour was comfortable and the route was well organized. This was beyond the basic San Francisco tour that took us to areas we would have never come across on our own. Particularly loved the Palace of Fine Arts. Agatha has a lot of great insights and knowledge of San Francisco and was a fantastic guide. She is very kind and personable. "

Do the tour with Michael !!!!
"Michael was fantastic!!!
He has such a great knowledge of the city that he shared with us in a interesting and informative way. He met us at our hotel took us all over San Francisco from China Town, Little Italy, and Fisherman's Wharf.
He made dinner and lunch recommendations to us that were outstanding. The tour he gave us was so good that I would do it again with him as our guide.
Michael made my wife and my trip to San Francisco truly outstanding and memorable!"

Delightful SF Walking Tour with Family
"Agatha was a friendly, considerate, kind and knowledgeable guide. We explored several new areas of SF that we had not before and she was intuitive enough to know when to break for water and the loo, what with our kids in tow. Ultimately, a great walk, good impressions, imbued history and exercise. Highly recommended."

Great Tour with Michael in San Francisco!
"Michael was amazing. We enjoyed our walking tour through the financial district, china town, and ended the tour at Coit Tower. It was our first trip as a family, and it was a wonderful way to kickstart our long weekend in San Francisco. Michael was very knowledgeable about the city, and we learned a lot. He also gave us great suggestions for restaurants. Our son is still talking about \"Tony's Pizza.\" Thank you, Michael, for an amazing tour!"
