| First 40 minutes spent in Chinatown going over history of city--we had just had a separate tour of Chinatown so were not happy to have a repetition. We went to 1 open coffee shop and had a drink; then walked to 2 other closed (!?) shops before going to one last open coffee shop for a small espresso dessert. I can't recommend this tour. |

Much better than a trip to the tourist meccas

| If you're visiting San Francisco, you'll get far more out of this guided tour than an impersonal visit to the usual city tourist destinations.
Well thought out, informative, and well-conducted. Budget about 2-1/2 hours and be prepared to walk (though it isn't at all exhausting). |

| Was a great and informative walk....Not just learning about and visiting coffeeshops...but informative and interesting about SF in general...history, stories, current events etc....Collete was fantastic...I will certainly recommend to others....and though there was alot of walking....SF is just a plain "fun to walk in" City!!
After the tour, (that evening and next night) I revisited several of the coffeeshops and places we had been...and attended the Beach Blanket Babylon performance that Collete had mentioned as well....
Thanks...so very much for the GREAT tour...

| It's always better to explore somewhere on foot -- the Java Walk provides the enhancement of having a knowledgeable person lead you on the tour and share interesting history about the areas you're visiting. The pace and length of the tour were just right, and it inspired me to return to spend time in some of the stores and restaurants. I'd like to learn about similar tours in different parts of the city, too. |

| Though we have been to SF several times, this tour put the city in context like no other. We need to go back to follow up on all the great recommendations she gave us. Her passion for the city really shows through on the tour. |

| Extremely knowlegeable and enthusiastic, Collette guided us through Chinatown, Little Italy, North Beach....all the while providing us with tidbits of San Francisco history. We have lived in the area for over 30 years and still learned a thing or two. Walking through very interesting parts of the City on a beautiful day, made for a memorable and enjoyable experience. |

| We got way more than our money's worth. Nicole was smart, nice and well-prepared. All four of us loved her! We learned so much about San Francisco, as well as enjoying some great java in interesting cafes. Highly recommend. |

| We had the best time with our tour guide. She was so personable and fun. My wife was pregnant and she had no trouble walking the distance that was required. I would suggest this to anyone and everyone going to San Francisco! |

| Parents and adult son and daughter in law who all have worked in sf and now live in Santa cruz. Learned history and saw sf in a new light. Loved the stop and the treat at the end... |
