| For quite a while my wife and I thought about taking a guided tour through the Castro and when some friends had recommended FOOTtours (and after checking the internet for ourselves) we decided to be part of the "Come Out To The Castro"-Tour. And guess what? We loved it! We had a hilarious, funny and educating tour through the district, a great guide who gave us an "insight" view of life in the Castro throughout the ages and even quite a few "up-to-date - what's in at the moment" tips. I will definitely check out other tours by FOOTtours as well because this one was simply perfect. THANKS! |

| The tour guide was very good and very respectul of the group...... We should have toured more of the residential area of the Castro with the beautiful architecture and views. The Historical background was the best... |

| This was my first tour with FOOTtours and in the Castro as well. My friend and I had a great time. Our guide was very informative and to see the place where Harvey Milk once lived and worked was very interesting and affecting.
The only thing I would like to criticize is that our tour only lasted 1.5 hours. I assume that there's so much more out there to talk about that I would've preferred to be there a little longer.
Besides that I could totally recommend this tour and will try out another one with them in the future. |

| We had a great time with Kim, He knew so much and was very funny. He was very personable and kept us engaged. He read us well and knew what we would want to experience. I had been to the Castro before, but didn't know any of the history, this tour was the way to go. I would highly recommend this tour and Kim. |

| We so enjoyed our Out in the Castro Tour with Kim Larsen. We've tried similar tours in other cities and never had the satisfaction we'd hoped for, but today, we were overly impressed by the quality, quantity and queer sensibility of the Come Out to the Castro tour.
Kim was so personable and warm. He really knows his stuff about the Castro. Kim involved everyone in the tour group numerous times throughout the afternoon. He was funny and more importantly, he made the rest of us feel funny, too! Kim had that perfect mix of "I know what I'm talking about" and "I'll verify that" (when he wasn't sure without checking), as well as "What do you know about this?" he was very open to hearing about our relevant experiences, too.
Thanks so much for the opportunity to participate in the Come Out to the Castro tour. |

| Our guide, Kim, had a great sense of humor and a deep knowledge of Castro history. But what was especially impressive was how well he seemed to know today's community and business leaders. We felt lucky to be led by him, and we'd recommend him to anyone! |
