	The tour was good up to a point. However there was a lot of grumbling when our guide talked too much about himself. How he was struggling a long on social security and the miles he traveled to be our guide that day. How the fare was high but he got a reduction because of his being a senior. All this took a lot of time with us standing on a busy corner roasting in the sun. Then he loudly produced at the luncheon some twenty dollar bills and gave them to the hostess at our table proclaiming loudly that they had been given to him by some one on a tour this hostess had done and had forgotton to give her. The inference being that twenties were expected for tips. The hostess at the table was clearly embarrassed and so were we. It was unprofessional.
	Nice overview Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	We enjoyed the tour. We were not sure how or what to order if we were to eat in Chinatown on our own, so it was nice to have some coaching as to how the dim sum process worked. Next time we come back we will know where to go and what to expect. Interesting part of town, and the personal history given by the tour guide was a nice touch.
	Great Tour - Chinatown with lunch Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	Hello - my friend and I took the tour on Mon Oct 1 from 10 - 100pm with lunch at a dim sum restaurant. Your guide was terrific....extremely informative, knowledgeable and just fun. I feel we had enough walking (no too much, just right) covering (which I am sure) is just a small area of Chinatown. However the places we saw and learned about were just great. We certainly got a good overview of the area. We left the tour having a fun time and great food. I am sorry I just cannot remember the guide's name (woman) as I am writing this about a month later. Sorry for the delay. She is a tremendous asset to your company. Thank you and I will be sure to recommend Wok Wiz to anyone who asks about my trip to San Francisco. Judy Casper Santa Fe NM 10/28/07

	I just wanted to let you know that I found the WokWiz Daily Tour very, very enjoyable. Our tour guide, Lola, was very pleasant and very informative. She had answers to all my questions and made the tour a great experience.

	Lola did a fantastic job touring us around Chinatown. She included concise history, personal experiences, suggestions for future visits, and introduced us to various shopkeepers. The fortune cookie factory tour was "eye opening" and the tea shop was delightful. I've visited Chinatown numerous times and was very happy with the tour. My mother, who was visiting from Oregon and had lived in SF in the early 1950's, found the tour as enjoyable as I did.
	A must! I Can't Believe I Ate My Way Through Chinatown!

	A fantastic and delicious experience. The walking was easy. The information and sites wonderful. The food diverse and spectacular. Also, we became a big family by the end, enjoying the lucnheon feast and laughing at stories we were all telling.
	Entertaining and educational but most of all fun Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	Who could have wished for a better guide than Alberta. Born and raised in Chinatown, she was so knowledgeable of its history and we just loved the extra snippets about her childhood and family - it was as if we were being escorted by a family friend. Favourites were the tea shop, the temple and the fruit and vegetable markets. Unfortunately daughter and I could not go for dim sum ... maybe next time.
	Best way to see Chinatown! Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	The tour was great - very informative with visits to a tea shop, fortune cookie factory, herbal shop and much more. Our tour leader, Alberta, made it a very interesting and fun tour, showing us many things that we probably wouldn't have seen on our own. Recommend staying for dim sun after the tour!
	Food should have been better Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	The tour was great, Chuck the guide was excellent - however I felt the food at the Dim Sum lunch was (a) not dim sum (Yang Sing and others are dim sum- this was only fried egg roll, bao and pot stickers) and (b) fairly pedestrian in quailty. Expect much more on a tour set up by cookbook author, etc. Had fabulous lunch 2 days earlier on a different tour of North Beach...
	fun, do it on a day.... Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	Very Interesting Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	Tour guides were extremely helful and freindly. Food was excellent. I would have liked if there was more information on the history of Chinatown rather than the food but it was an excellent tour all the same. Will definitely recommend others to go.
	This Was Great Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	Hank was a knowledgeable, humorous guide who took us places we had never seen in Chinatown in the past. He provided interesting personal history as well as general history of the district. The food at The Four Seas was delicioius, and he continued there to explain the dishes and the condiments even why Chinese prefer drinking tea rather than water with their meals. We recommended the tour to others at our hotel, and an English couple signed up for the next day based on our descriptions. We have friends going to San Francisco in November, and I will definitely recommend that they take the tour as well. I asked the general manager of our hotel in advance of our trip for suggestions, and this was one of two tours he recommended. All in all, it was professionally planned and excecuted. I wouldn't hesitate to tell all my friends to do this.
	Excellent Tour Wok Wiz Daily Tour

	Very much enjoyed my Wok Wiz tour. Tour guide was very well informed, and shared her own experiences along with facts and history of the area. Good pace, with stops at tea shop, temple, fortune cookie factory, and restaurant well coordinated.
