Fun and entertaining morning

Frank was enthusiastic as a tour guide. I loved that he was born and raised in China Town. I particularly enjoyed walking through the open produce market. Frank pointed out the different kinds of fruits and vegetables. The tea tasting was also very enjoyable. Even though we live just an hour away from the city, this was our first tour of China town. We got inspired to take some other tours of our beautiful city by the bay.

I loved the Wok Wiz tour! Dorothy was engaging, funny and very knowledgeable about Chinatown. I was very impressed that the shops we visited were local mom and pop stores. This tour is a must for first time visitors to San Francisco as well as those who have previously visited the city. Thank you, Dorothy!!

I was part of a group of friends who, although we all know San Francisco fairly well, all learned a great deal during our Chinatown tour. Frank, our guide, had first hand historical and current knowledge of the community and provided interesting insights and details. The stop at the tea shop was quite informative and welcomed as was the dim sum lunch at the end of our tour. Again, Frank's informative details made the experience very interesting, fun, and educational.

The guide was very interesting, mixing in both historical points and personal memories of the area. Our group was small, just us and another couple. The Lunch was not a full Dim Sum meal, it was more of a sampler. Food was good, nothing special.

Expected something more indepth

I expected more information on life in Chinatown--something more than stopping in front of a store window and discussing what kind of store it was to show that the area is a real neighborhood where people live. Our guide was a bit disorganized and ditzy--very nice--but not as well informed as I expected.

The tour was both fun and enlightening. The leader, Gimmy, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She chose perfect spots to highlight a complex area. We were lucky because the two of us were the only poeple on the tour. This tour is highly recommended

Emily Soo led a wonderful and detailed tour, taking our tour group through the historic alleys of Chinatown, delving into the history of Chinese immigrants, personalizing the tour with stories of her own youth, as she grew up in Chinatown . We visited the Fortune Cookie factory and witnessed the hands-on formation of each individual cookie. We went to the Buddhist temple and learned about the icons and traditions of those who worship there. We experienced a wonderful tea tasting at a lovely tea shop, learning of the various teas and what maladies they treat! We also visited an herb shop and learned cures for all of our ailments! We traveled through the market places that sells the freshest of produce, fish, and poultry to the residents of Chinatown. The tour ended with a wonderful meal consisting of tasty as well as authentic Chinese favorites. I took this tour upon a friend's recommendation that came last year and I highly recommend this tour, as well!! Well worth the price!!

The walking tour of Chinatown was very informative. Not only was the guide Chinese, she was born and raised there. We learned how the neighborhood came to be. Enjoyed the shops of all kinds...the food and the people watching was interesting. I would recommend the tour to anyone. And hope you get Dorothy for your guide

Dorothy was a terrific tour guide and I learned so much about Chinatown and San Francisco's history. I highly recommend this tour. It was an easy walk, followed by a delicious lunch. Dorothy even showed me how to properly hold my chopsticks!
