| Dorothy, our tour guide, was a delight. She wove her family's personal story together with an historic overview of Chinatown, creating an engaging experience for our group. Not only was Dorothy extremely knowledgeable, but she was also able to adapt to the changing sites and scenes unfolding during our tour. For example, she took time to explain the customs and rituals we were observing when a funeral procession passed by. The WizWok tour topped my list of San Francisco highlights. |

| Guide was fun and knowledgable. We learned a lot and saw/heard things we would have missed if not for the tour. Lunch was amazingly good and well worth the money! |

| My wife and I greatly enjoyed our tour of Chinatown. From the opening greeting at the Hilton until the closing lunch at Four Seas, our guide was jovial, informative and fun to be with.
We covered a wide variety of places in Chinatown, but the pace was not hurried or taxing. We did learn a great deal about the history and cultural practices of San Francisco's Chinese population, information that we never would have gained by merely walking throught the community.
If this were TripAdvisor, I'd give the tour five stars. |

| Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly with personal connnections to the town. Greatly enjoyed visiting the tea shop and "grocery stores". The walk was easy and seemed to provide a good variety of neighborhoods and architecture.
The only criticism is the heavy emphasis on buying in town versus spending money elsewhere in SF. |

| This tour is a wonderful way to spend a few hours in Chinatown, particularly if you would like to know a bit of history and culture as well as a few insider tips on places to eat, shop etc. Dorothy was a delightful and insightful guide and excellent lunch host. The tour itself has been well thought out and requires little exertion so don't worry about having to hike the many hills of San Francisco. The various stops along the way are great and most I would have walked right past without knowing the significance had I not taken this tour. Lunch is superb and a perfect way to finish. Most enjoyable and highly recommended. |

| Our tour guide, Frank, was fantastic. He was raised in Chinatown and has come back to write a history of Chinatown. He knew everyone and knew how to make it interesting.
Lunch was very good. Don't miss this tour! |

| My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour of Chinatown. Our tour guide was a delightful woman who was extremely knowledgeable about Chinatown. She was very personable and kept everyone engaged. She made the history of Chinatown come to life by talking about her own family and life in Chinatown going back over 70 years ago. We had a great lunch with our tour guide afterwards which gave us more time to ask questions. I highly recommend this tour. |
