Our guide No showed but of course our credit card was charged and when looking into the website we couldn’t even find a contact number. The information we had told us to meet at Rhea’s Deli, we arrived 10 minutes early, waited and waited and Michael never showed. Of course our credit card was charged and it appears quite difficult to reach anyone through the company. We also paid for a 30 minute Uber ride to that area which was very frustrating! No one even called us!Terrible, we paid for a 30 minute car ride for our guide to never show our call, it feels like a scam!

I did both the Highlights & Hidden Gems of San Francisco and the 10 Tastings of San Francisco tours with Michael, and they were both wonderful! Really fun and interesting ways to see and experience the city, which I could never have done by myself. Michael has an impressive knowledge of and an infectious passion for the city's history and culture. I highly recommend either of these tours with Michael as your guide! Fantastic tours with a wonderful host!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael as our guide in San Francisco, and we cannot recommend him enough! From the moment we met him, his warmth, knowledge, and passion for the city were evident. Michael has an incredible ability to weave fascinating historical facts with local insights, making the experience both educational and fun.
He tailored the tour perfectly to our interests, ensuring we got to see the iconic spots and hidden gems that only a true local would know. Michael’s enthusiasm for San Francisco is infectious, and he went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and comfortable throughout the day.
If you’re looking for someone who knows the city inside out, treats you like an old friend, and makes your visit truly unforgettable, Michael is your person. Thank you, Michael, for making our San Francisco adventure so special!Unforgettable SF Experience with Michael!

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. Amazing time in San Francisco

I really enjoyed wandering through the city with Michael, he is an incredibly interesting person, I particularly loved the history and symbolism of China town. Alternative view of the city, rather than just dry historical facts. Great experience, highly recommended

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!Do the tour with Michael !!!!

We had a ‚customized’ walking tour through Haight Ashbury and much enjoyed our time with Michael who taught us a bit about the music history of the area. He was very flexible to adjust the tour based in our walking speed and interests. Great morning!Nice morning walk

For $ 160 per person you would expect more. More stories and more food with a better price quality. The tour lasted far less than three hours. Was uninspiring and didn’t bring much news.Overpriced and uninspiring

Wir waren 3 Personen und Michael führte uns durch The Mission. Michael war überpünktlich sodass wir nicht warten mussten. Ein guter Host, der uns alle Freiheiten lies. Für unseren Geschmack etwas zu viel. Wir hätten uns etwas mehr Struktur gewünscht, aber vielleicht ist das auch der Way of Life in San Francisco. Michael überlies sehr oft uns die Wahl der Restaurants.
Das Essen war überall sehr lecker und am Ende sehr reichhaltig. Man sollte lieber Hungrig die Tour antreten.
Was uns etwas fehlte war proaktives Erzählen von Michael. Auf unsere Fragen antwortete er, aber wir bekamen kaum Informationen zu Historie oder Insidergeschichten ohne konkret zu fragen.
Ein weiterer sehr großer Kritikpunkt war, dass Michael sich gar nicht auf unseren, im Vorfeld extra abgesprochenen und zugesicherten, Extrawunsch nach Low-Carb Essen richtete. Er sicherte uns dies zu, aber auf der Tour wurde das nicht berücksichtigt.
Michael ist ein netter Typ mit dem Herz am richtigen Fleck. Gutes Essen - wenig Informtionen

Michael was not a very good tour guide. He was unshaven and his clothes were unkempt. He was a friendly man but not especially knowledgeable about the city and he did not engage the members of our tour group. I was not impressed. Could have been a lot better

We had a private bycicle tour with Michael. He showed us all the highlights of San Francisco and gave me and my teenage kids very interesting insights of the city. He was accessible, enthusiastic and well reachable by phone. Moreover did he know the best food spots in town and many other handy tips! We would definitely recommend!Geweldig!

My family and I spent a wonderful afternoon with Michael! We have two teenage boys and two preteen girls- Michael was very personable, friendly and accommodating; going out of his way to make sure everyone felt included. He took us to some fantastic little food gems that we never would have found as tourists. He also was very knowledgeable and added fun facts along the way about the city. We would highly recommend this tour especially if you pick Michael as your guide. He is bright light!The hidden food gems of San Francisco

Michael gave us a very in-depth and complete experience of what San Francisco has to offer. It was a great chance to get to know the city with Michael and plan next places to visit in the coming days of our short visit.

Michael had some great restutants picked out for us and the walk thru the Mission district was awesome. From taco’s, beer, mango deserts to cervichi. A true cornucopia of flavors and cultures.

Gerade was Essen angeht, kennt sich Michael wirklich aus. Er hat uns ein paar tolle Tipps für Testaurants gegeben. Zusätzlich kennt er sich aber auch mit der Geschichte der Stadt aus und hat uns häufig ein paar tolle geschichtliche Fakten nennen können. Er kannte alle wichtigen Gebäude und konnte diese benennen. Ein paar kleine Geheimtipps von San Francisco waren auch dabei. Er hat sich ausreichend Zeit für uns genommen. Die Gespräche waren nett und interessant. Wir hatten einen schönen Tag mit ihm. 😀Tolle Stadttour mit super Empfehlungen

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!Great Tour with Michael in San Francisco!

We had such a great time with Michael exploring San Francisco’s unique food in the Mission area. The variety of food was so fun …. Chocolate Cake to Mexican Pastrami Tacos to Latin American Pupusa’s to Spanish Empanadas to Lychee Cacao Smoothie…. The best part was the time we spent with Michael getting to know more about SF in general, the fascinating Mission specifically; but, getting to know this truly sincere, passionate, and enjoyable young man. Wonderful Tour!

Andy's incredibly in tune with the Mission District neighborhood and all of the various ethnicities of foods offered on this tour. It's refreshing to meet up with someone who's invested in the food service industry to learn and experience new foods, someone who wants to promote these delicious spots that otherwise may not get noticed.A great food tour with a great host!

Over all it was a great experience! I was able to book a tour with Michael the night before with no issues. Michael arrived on time as promised. Although soft spoken, he is an excellent communicator and very pleasant. He helped my family and I get us set up with the Muni mobile app for transportation. I was very impressed with the way he knew his way around San Francisco like the back of his hand. He knew a tremendous amount about the city’s history and random fun facts about the city and famous landmarks. He showed us some hidden gems and ended the trip by leading us to an amazing hole in the wall Mexican restaurant called Taqueria, el buen sabor in the Mission. Mike, thank you so much for being an awesome tour guide! Expert navigator/gentle soul

We had a great time with Robin who has been living in the Bay Area for a long time and has a wealth of knowledge about North Beach. We really enjoyed the tour, it was really relaxed and easy going. There wasn't too much walking (which we liked) because most of the eateries were within a block or so of each other. North Beach is one of the nicest area of San Francisco. Robin took us to all the nice spots and we tried everything from pizza, to seafood, to sandwiches, to Italian food and a coffee and pastry at Cafe Trieste to top it off. Robin was very kind and warm throughout the entire tour, we highly recommend her to anyone coming to San Francisco. Thanks again, Robin, hope we can take the tour again next time we visit. - Michael Delicious tour with Robin!

We are really into History and Michael knows his San Francisco history really well, sharing stories from the Gold Rush and before all the way through the Counter Culture movement, the dotcom era to the present day. We toured through Chinatown and learned about the oldest Chinatown in the United States and then learned about the Italian culture in North Beach. It was a really special experience, wish I could live in in San Francisco one day. - MariaAmazing tour today!

Andy has been a staple in San Francisco for more than 2 decades. His warm and outgoing personality makes the tour so fun and enjoyable, you wish it wouldn’t end. We really enjoyed all the stories and sights and recommend him to anyone visiting the city by the bay 🌃Fantastic tour with Andy!

Michael gave us a tour of Golden Gate Park and then we walked across the Golden Gate Bridge. It was such a perfect day, fabulous experience. We had children with us, so he knew their limits and got us to talk just the right amount. We got to see the city from across the bridge, which was an amazing sight. Everyone should come to San Francisco at least once in their life, and, if you get Michael as your guide, you'd be really lucky and happy with your choice. - Seth Great Golden Gate Park tour!
