| We were luck y enough to have our tour of Chinatown with Shirley Fong-Torres. In addition to an excellant historical tour of Chinatown, we received insight into living working and growing up in the Chinese community of San Francisco. Loved Shirley's presentation and her new guide in training who came with us. | ||||||

| Our guide was very informative and friendly. Sometimes he made us stand in the hot sun a very long time while he was talking, even though shade was close by. (I got a sunburn on my face.) Some of his little talks could have been split into two different stops to keep us from zoning out when it went on long. But all in all, he was a good guide. He gave a lot of historical background. I was worried about the hilly streets, but our guide chose a path that was no problem to walk, also he stopped us frequently enough to rest our flatlander legs! I especially liked seeing the fortune cookies being made and the visit to the tea shop. the lady at the tea shop was fantastic! I would have liked to go inside more of the unique shops to see and hear about them also. I also would have liked a handout on where we went (map) and points of interest to use when the tour was over. The food at the restaurant was also wonderful tasting, and lots of it was new to me, so I enjoyed learning about it also. Our guide explained all the dishes to us as they were served. Unfortunately, for some reason, I was sick with an intestinal upset all day long the following day, which made me wonder if something about the restaurant food was off. For this reason, I probably would not recommend the lunch included tour to anyone. It could have been for some other reason, but it was the only time in 14 days in SF that I had this problem, and it is not a problem that I have very often whether traveling or at home. So I suspect the food at the Chinese restaurant.. | ||||||

not a culinary tour

| I was really looking for a culinary tour. You would think that with a name like "wok wiz" I would have found it. I was not the only one who had that expectation.More of a history lesson. Still worth the money. Great guide,great lunch ! | ||||||

| We, a couple in our 60s, really enjoyed this tour. We like Chinese food and it seemed like a wonderful way to approach San Francisco's Chinatown. Frank, our guide, was full of information about Chinatown in general, the way of life that supports so many groceries and food markets, and the food itself. We especially enjoyed the tea shop. The tasting there was excellent. But, too, we like the back alley stops -- the barber with his stringed instrument for example. The tour is worth lunch alone. It was great to have someone narrate the dishes, their ingredients and suggest condiments. In Washington, DC, where we are from, Chinatown is gone, so for us it was interesting to see that this is still a going way of life in San Francisco and likely to remain so. Frank also gave us some good advice on what to do next in San Francisco and how to get there. | ||||||

| I loved the Wok WIz china Town tour! Dorothy was awesome! She gave a very good perspective on China Town history and Chinese culture. She made the tour feel very personal. She made sure to learn each of our names and to talk to each of us individually during the tour. What a wonderful ambassador for San Francisco! | ||||||

A San Francisco Must Do!

| 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. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

The best way to tour through Chinatown.

| 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. | ||||||

Great stroll through Chinatown

| 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! | ||||||
