| The Summer of Love tour is a great find for those of us who can remember the 1960's. It does a good job of recreating what life was like in the Haight during the hippie movement. I took my adult daughter who was fascinated to learn about the Greatful Dead, Janice Joplin, Charles Manson, etc. The best part of the tour was participating in the hippie dancing contest. |

| We enjoyed the tour with tour guide, Kurt. The tour was informative & fun at a leisurely pace. Kurt used trivia and games to keep us on our toes. |

| The tour was informative and fun -- although it focused primarily on the music scene of the 1960's-'70s. I would have enjoyed learning about other aspects of that era, as well. |

| I took the tour with my two adult sons. It was just the three of us along with our tour guide. Kirk was very infomative, funny, and navigated the streets so we didn't have to climb the steep hills. We had fun trivia games and learned to hippie dance to the music of the day. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone wanting a taste of the 60's and this great neighborhood. |

| I'd been on many of your tours. Whenever I have family in town we take one of your tours because they are prompt, interesting and funny. This time you missed on all counts. We started about 30 minutes late, the points on the tour were pretty lame and the jokes fell flat. I'll probably take another tour when visitors come but it definately won't be this one. |

Everybody can enjoy this!

| Our guide seemed to have done his homework on the era. (He looked like he could have lived through the '60s in Haight Ashbury.) He provided lots of interesting trivia, and most importantly, helped us to understand the political, social and cultural forces that shaped the times. (The music was a nice touch.) The way he involved the participants of the walk was enjoyable. There wasn't as much comedy in his talk as I'd expected, but better that than overloading it with attempts at comedy just for the sake of comedy. I also think it was somewhat overpriced, but it was a worthwhile way to spend a couple of hours. |
