We were pleasantly surprised! Our guide was a true local and she was very informative. Be prepared to experience a fantastic tea room the Vital Tealeaf and eat your way thru Chinatown and North Beach (Little Italty) all authentic! I highly recommend it!
Fantastic tour! This was our fourth walking food tour booked with Viator NYC, Chicago, Florence Italy, and we have been very satisfied and enjoyed each one. Eileen was delightful and a very fun and knowledgeable tour guide. Our group included a couple from Scotland, a woman traveling alone from Tennessee, and my family of 4. We stopped and sampled at a Chinese tea shop, Chinese Dim Sum restaurant, candy store, popcorn shop, and Mona Lisa - an Italian restaurant that we visited AGAIN the following night because it was so good. Each shop owner was extremely generous. So much so that we all had packaged some of our food to-go from one or more stops. My daughters are both vegetarians and it was no problem at all, very accommodating. My husband cannot have dairy or tomatoes, so the Italian restaurant Mona Lisa prepared a pasta dish for him while we all enjoyed our wine and margherita pizza. I highly recommend this tour.
This tour was the highlight of our visit to San Francisco. Our guide was the best! Her insight and knowledge were beyond our imagination. She shared history of the cultures including food unique shops and answered lots of questions we have always had. We love San Francisco, but have an even deeper love learning some of the the hows and whys of Chinatown and North Beach. The food and tea were exceptional and we felt very special with the amazing treatment from our fabulous guide. Thank you! We will do it again, the next chance we have.
