  We had a terrific tour with Dorothy as our guide -- the right mix of history and current day culture. She was not only very knowledgeable but an effective storyteller that kept the kids focused throughout the tour. Would have loved to spend all day with her.
Rating: 5 Lots of good information

  I have been to China Town many times before, but enjoyed it this time from a different perspective--that of a local. Our tour guide told us all sorts of interesting details about Chinese culture and her heritage as a Chinese-American born and raised in China Town.
Rating: 5 Very Enjoyable Tour

  My husband and I visited San Francisco during Spring Break with my son and nephew. We took the Wiz Wok tour and was fortunate to be in a small group. Alberta was our tour guide. She was very informative and made the tour thoroughly enjoyable. We especially enjoyed the tea shop! I would strongly recommend this tour if you have an interest in Chinatown. Lunch was included in our tour and it was excellent.
Rating: 5 Wonderful tour! Even the kids were entertained!

  We went on the daily Wok Wiz tour in April 2008 with our 3 children ages 11, 8 and 8. Alberta was our guide and showed us places in Chinatown that we would have completely missed if we toured on our own. She also gave us great insight into Chinese culture and traditions. The lunch was superb. But the highlights for us were the Temple, the tea shop and the butcher shop. We all enjoyed it and would highly recommend.

  When I go on vacation I always sign up for tours in order to learn more about the area I'm traveling in. It occurred to me why not go on a tour in my own area? I am so glad I did! I loved it. Lola was fun and interesting. She had first hand knowledge since she grew up in Chinatown. We visited a Tea Shop, a fortune cookie factory, had Dim Sum for lunch, got to visit with the others in the group over lunch. They were from several different places and it was very interesting and fun to talk to them too! The weather was beautiful. I came away with a lot of knowledge of Chinatown, a better understanding of its people and the feeling that I could return and feel comfortable exploring the shops and trying the many different restaurants! I highly recommend the tour. Very fun!

  Wonderful tour of China Town. You learn a great deal of the history and visit several shops on the tour. Afterwards you can spend time shopping at the recommended stores. Our granchildren (8 & 10) were not so enthusiastic of the lunch. A bit too authentic for them, but enjoyed by all the adults.
Rating: 5 Informative and Fun

  My fellow retirees and I really enjoyed this tour. We learned a lot about the Chinese Immigrants living in Chinatown.....their customs, traditions, culture, and cuisine. Our guide was very knowledgeable and brought us to some of the best places in Chinatown. We loved the tea shop and came home with lots of tea! Lunch was very good.....nice variety and plenty of food. This tour was not only fun but a good value for your tourist dollar!

  The tour was a highlight of our trip to San Francisco. I had always been fascinated by the mystique of Chinatown, and this tour provided more insight into the local culture than I ever could have gleened alone. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. It was like we were being shown around the neighborhood by a good friend. The only thing I would have done differently is to take the tour at the beginning of my trip instead of at the end, when I didn't have enough time to explore Chinatown more on my own. It would have been nice to venture out on my own to explore the neighborhood armed with all of the new insights I had gained on the tour.

  Lola was an excellent guide, very attentive and knowledgable. This was one of the best things we have done in San Francisco - and we have been there dozens of times

  Shirley Fong-Torres is a delight! Charming, warm, and full of enthusiasm and energy about her hometown: "Chinatown." However, on the day my friend and I took her tour, both of the restaurants she had planned to take us to, for breakfast and for lunch, were closed, and we spent an undue amount of time roaming around looking for another place to have some jook. Luckily, I had a piece of hard candy in my purse or else my blood sugar would have crashed. The places where we ended up having our two meals were both undistinguished in their cuisine and none of the dishes were very different from what I would normally order at a Chinese restaurant. That said, the rest of the tour's highlights were wonderful. From the musician/barber in the alley to the fabulous tea shop where we learned to "rinse" our tea leaves to the amazing Dim Sum shop where we had truly spectacular items, nothing was lacking. The only thing we would have enjoyed having more of would have been a little more history/background information from Shirley herself about the culture and locale. Again, lots of fun with friendly companions.

  We had a fantastic time! I'd recommend this walking tour to people that have been to China town before and those that have not. Tour guides are very knowledgable and friendly. 5 stars

  My husband and I had a fun and interesting time, and the tour guide did a great job, but we would only recommend it to others only with this disclaimer : If you go, be prepared for a really filthy restaurant. We already know from past trips to Chinatown that it is not a squeaky clean place, but it seems to us that we should have been taken to a clean restaurant. It would not have had to be fancy in any way. Although the tickets might have cost more, we would have been more than willing to pay the difference. We would have done this tour many times in the future with different tour guides, but not with restaurants like this. Perhaps you could offer two grades of tickets: #1 - Chinatown on the Cheap #2 - Chinatown with a better grade restaurant. We live in a retirement village with 4000 people, and we would have brought back many groups if the tour had been held to a higher standard. Also, the other participants in our tour were all from other States. It is sad and embarrassing as a local resident that these people must leave Chinatown disgusted with the restaurant, as many of them mentioned to us. It will really affect their memory of the tour.
