This was a very fun tour! Our tour guide, Jinny, was very knowledgeable about the history and growth of Chinatown as we walked through. All the food very delicious, but the pork buns stole the show at the beginning! Highly recommend having Jinny as your guide! We definitely will go on other tours with this company!

Thank you for the wonderful 5-star review. We're thrilled to read you thought our Chinatown food tour with Ted was "Fascinating." Come eat with us on our North Beach and/or Mission District food tour next time.

Wish I could give this TEN stars. Ed B was an exceptional tour guide (I'm guessing all of their tour guides are carefully chosen), and the surprise was that this wasn't "just" about the food. Blown away at the real story of Chinatown...wowed by the food. And the food! He warned us to pace ourselves, and was right. None of the restaurants "skimped" on quality or quantity. HIGHLY recommend. Wish I had taken photos ;/
