Very Informative

Good walking tour - tour guide was very knowlegeable. Because the tour lasted longer than scheduled, we had to leave early for dinner reservations.

Sat, Jan 3  1:00 PM wgray77 Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We very much enjoyed our tour - three hours is a long time, but there was plenty of information provided, and our guide helped make it enjoyable with bits of humor along the way. The notebook of historical pictures also helped put things in perspective - we could see how the neighborhoods used to look, and compare them to the current structures. We always enjoy walking around when visiting a "new" city, and have done walking tours in several cities - this was one of the best we've done, and I'm happy to recommend it to others.

Interesting flashback to the 1960's
Mon, Jun 29  1:00 PM vhuebner Female 40-49 Local Group of Friends
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.

Good information -- just not enough of it!
Fri, Oct 9  1:00 PM ThereseMey Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
As a former tourguide, I know how difficult it can be to fill some of the time between "sites," but I wish our guide had a little more running commentary for some of walking time. But the tour was fun and informative, and the guide likable.

Entertaining and educational
Sat, Nov 29, 08   2:00 PM TerriWaldman Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
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.

Kim and Out in the Castro are Fabulous!
Sat, Aug 9, 08   2:00 PM t8temd Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
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.

Viewing the Haight through music
Sat, Apr 11  1:00 PM S_Feldman Female 60-69 Local Group of Friends
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.

Who knew about all the yellow brick in China Town?
Mon, Sep 7  1:00 PM Suzramsey Female 50-59 Local Family Without Children
I was born in SF (3rd generation), spending only the first 9 years of my life there. As an adult, my family enjoys regular trips to the city for dinner, shows and other activities. The Whole Shebang was quite informative and Tom pointed out so many things that have been right in front of our eyes for years but never noticed! The city is magical and the stories of how it came to be were very enlightening. To our surprise, our tour was only the two of us with Tom - too bad - it would have been fun to have experienced this with a larger group.

A good tour. I and my 16 year old son enjoyed it.
Sun, Jul 13, 08   1:00 PM SuzanneCha Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
Tom did a good job. He concentrated on the culture more than history which was more interesting than just boring history. Culture also allowed for more jokes. Also liked the large breath of the tour from art history to beatniks.

Good walking tour
Mon, Feb 2  1:00 PM SusanGoodman Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I liked the additional questions and quirkiness of this walking tour, however for 3 hrs it did fail to keep me occupied (although this in part was probably my own mood already). It was quite expensive, so do not think I would say it was value fo money.

Lots of fun and informative!

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!

Kirk rocks!
Sat, Mar 28  1:00 PM sloanemo Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
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.
