Haight Ashbury Flower Power Walking Tour

We enjoyed our tour with Stan. He was an excellent guide. Very knowledgable and congenial. The pride in his neighbourhood showed. A chance to see and learn about this fascinating part of the city.

The tour guide (ISU) was very enthusiastic and really worked hard to make sure people enjoyed the trip. She clearly identified with the hippie movement and I enjoyed her total lack of cynicism about that era. I would say it was more of a 'talking' tour than a 'walking' tou but ISU was hindered by her broken foot. The fact there was nothing on the Jefferson Airplane surprised me. Overall it was definitely worthwhile.

The tour of Haight Ashbury was fun and quirky. I recommend this tour for the free spirits out there and open minded individuals who are young at heart. Not for the prudes of society. You may be converted. A tour with personality. The tour guide is the main attraction, a WILD free spirit hippie, Grateful Dead fanatic with funny stories and personality. She lives in the area and has since the Summer of Love. It's sad to think that she is one of the last links to the height of Haight's Hippie days. The area is slowly being taken over by over commercialization and the wealthy are trying to push away the homeless youth who come to the area for free medical services and food. Go on this tour before it is all gone. Unfortunately without a movement the Haight will be no more. See it while you can, or at least hear about this once vibrant artistic community.

Just walking Haight-Ashbury isn't enough - it's a groovy street, but the stories behind the place are what it's all about. On this walking tour you get the full Hippy Vibe with enthusiastic local guide Izu - anecdotes, famous residents' houses, and the best place to buy your tie-dye! I had a really good time.

It was a great tour and Izu was fantastic! It would be tragic if there is no one left with the firsthand experience of the events that occurred during the period. We would recommend having more visuals/props to compare then and now. Short video clips with music of the times at the end would be great. All in all, would not miss it when on a SF visit. Another suggestion: a magic bus for the tour.

I loved the Haight/Ashbury tour because it was so genuine and just fun! It was my first time to San Fran and the tour guide made the experience unforgettably psychadelic

The tour guide was wonderful! She took you back in time to the late 60's, early 70's. We could not have fully appreciated Haight Ashbury without taking this very informative tour.

My sister and I recently visited San Francisco and spent a fantastic 3 hours touring the Haight/Ashbury area with our fabulous guide. The group was small which meant we had a lot of time to ask questions and learned a great deal about the area's history. Our guide was outstanding. He was a wealth of knowledge and was able to provide excellent recommendations for places to eat and things to see in the area. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Francisco.

Stan was a fantastic tour guide of this area. Very knowledgable and delivered with a great sense of humor. He's a local to the area and has lived there for many, many years, as evidenced by his 'cheerio's' to other locals as we passed by them. All the stories and history of the district and architecture made for a fascinating walking journey throughout the streets surrounding Haight-Ashbury. Great tips on good places to eat and shop aswell. My husband is not someone who is too familiar with the history of the whole hippy movement and bands of the 60's and initially was somewhat uninspired to take the tour when I first suggested it to him, but he was pleasantly surprised and thought Stan was the key factor in making the tour a memorable highlight of our trip to San Francisco. Thanks Stan.

The tour guide did an exceptional job or keeping each person on the tour interested. My wife was not really looking forward to the tour; however, it was one of her favorite activities while we were in San Francisco. I would recommend to anyone wishing to visit San Francisco to take the Haight Ashbury tour, especially if classic rock 'n' roll is in your blood. Five stars *****
