| Izu and Benny were excellent hosts and we enjoyed the tour immensely! It was wonderfully fun and informative and was one of the highlights of our visit. We highly recommend this tour and will do it again next time we are in town. The whole thing was an absolute delight!!

| My husband and I really enjoyed the tour. I used to live in SF, so I particularly liked the history of the area, how it was built up from sand dunes and the architecure. My husband likes rock & roll music and was familiar with most of the musicians and groups mentioned, as well as some of the musical landmarks. It was a very enjoyable way to spend the morning, and the guide was very informative and interesting. Plus he knows everyone in the neighborhood, which gives the "big city" a friendlier feel. |

| Tour guide: Energetic, knowledgeable, very inclusive of all members of group, tons of fun
Tour sites: The highlights of the 60s Haight-Ashbury, lots of chances for photos, informative stop at the Psychedelic History Museum
Even as a local, I learned more about the history of the neighborhood, of particular buildings, and even sidewalk art! Great tour, highly recommended. |

| that was what we were feeling after our tour with our super guide Izu, what a great walk down Memory lane and the coolness factor for my teenage son was off the charts. Learn what hippies were really about, their concern for the planet is so pertinent today. Recommend this highly if you want something different than the standard tours. Great food and shopping in the area! So come early or stay late. |

| Very energetic guide! Very interesting, lots of info on the hippie movement. Lots of anecdotes. But we stand a lot! It would have been nice to walk a little more. We could stay 20 minutes without moving....
Would have liked to learn more about the different shops on Haight street.
Very good guide. |

| Our tour guide on the Flower Power walking tour was Izoo (is that spelled right?) She was great with her stories, pictures and knowledge! We had a lot of fun and were able to experience a lot of the history of the area up close. We were lucky to have a personal tour that day and would recommend Izoo and the tour to anyone who asked. Great tour and her enthusiasm was infectious! |

| The tour was very fun and informative, filled with interesting details and tidbits. The sites were well chosen and the entire length, both in time and in walking amount, was perfect. I especially enjoyed the fact that my tour guide, Eizu (or Yzu - I didn't ask which spelling of Suzie/Suzy was spelled backward) was a part of the neighborhood both in the past of which she was speaking and the present. |

| Our guide Izu (her name backwards without the leading S!) is what this tour is all about. She is knowledgeable, enthusiastic and one of life's characters. We thoroughly enjoyed it even though we are not Dead-heads. |

| Really enjoyed our tour guide Izu -- an old time hippie that really enthusiastically showed us the various different homes that the musicians lived in. The pictures she provided on the tour and the museum we went to were also fun as was her knowledge of so many happenings. Would recommend this tour to anyone. |
