Wonderful insider's view of Chinatown's culture

There's simply no better way to get a comprehensive view of life in Chinatown - both past and present. The guide offered her personal insights about Chinese culture from a lifetime spent living in Chinatown, and was able to present it in such a delightful way. All sites visited were very interesting and would not have been noted by a self-guided tour.

Yes to the tour , NO to the lunch part

The tour is well-thought out, the guide was knowledgeable and helpful. We doubt that we would have found all the little places he showed us on our own. I would recommend the tour again without reservations. We are foodies and could not pass up the opportunity to eat traditional Chinese food, so we paid extra for that. The quality of food was really really lousy, the service left a lot to be desired. I believe that you could have had a much better food experience by walking into any small restaurant in Chinatown where locals go. Please do yourself a favor and do not pay nor go for the food portion of the tour.

Our guide, Alberta, was delightful: Strong, humorous, and lively! We appreciated the fun of the tour, but also the deeper understanding of life in Chinatown that it gave us. Thank you! The Bundys Long Beach, CA

Something enjoyable to do while my son was working

This was a good activity to do while my son was working. The lunch was outstanding! I even met another lady who was on the tour while her husband was attending business and we went to Fisherman's Wharf together after we finished doing a little shopping in Chinatown.

Highly recommended tour to take!

I would highly recommend this tour if you plan to spend some time in Chinatown. Our tour guide Alberta grew up in this area so she was very knowledgeable of the area and had a great sense of humor as well. The walking tour was very comfortable and not tiring at all. The dim sum lunch at the end was very delicious as well. We returned to the Chinatown area a day after our tour and because of the tour the previous day, I knew exactly where to go (on what street, etc.) to find the things that I was looking for.

Experience through culture
Sun, Jun 10, 07   10:00 AM cmeyerot Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I enjoyed experiencing the culture of Chinatown. It came alive through our guide. It made the experience of Chinatown human and not just buildings and crowds. I enjoyed learning customs both old and still evolving. My only disappointment was the meal at the end. I would have liked to have understood more about the carts and maybe have been able to choose some of the selections. There seemed to be some confusion about our arrival and again we were in a back corner. I would have liked to have been where I could have seen more of what was going on and what people were choosing. Alberta did a wonderful job of explaining the real Chinatown, it's people.

Our guide was very friendly and easy to understand. It was a wonderful way to experience Chinatown through this tour, and with the dim-sum lunch.
