| 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... |

| The Come Out to the Castro walking tour was a highlight of our trip to San Francisco. Our guide was very knowledgeable and I learned much more than I ever expected about the history of the Castro neighborhood. Had a great time. |

| My wife and I enjoyed our tour and the tour guide was excellent! He showed us all of the Castro district and the walk was fun. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see and learn about an interesting neighborhood of San Francisco. |

| 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! |

| 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. |

| The instructor was knowledgeable and entertaining but the tour attendees were all gay except for me, my husband and my 2 guests. My guests were not comfortable with that. I didn't know my guests would be so narrow minded (they aren't from California). They wanted to leave halfway through. (Their loss). So potential tour attendees should be advised that this tour is highly popular with same sex couples and if they have a problem with that, they should stay at home, watch Milk on DVD, and get an attitude adjustment.
I thought the tour was authentic and I felt better informed. |

| We had a great tour leader named Kim, who was chalk full of information and had a great sense of humor. It was a really great way to hang for a couple hours in the Castro! |
