Great Insiders Look at China Town
Wed, Dec 19, 07   10:00 AM kodaniels Male 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
Excellent A+ tour guide with expert long standing knowledge of China Town. Excellent tea shop and insights into the area that no one would know without taking the tour. Excellent dining recommendations and yummy dim sum. Highly Recommended for the adventurous foodie who wants to know more than just the food but also background.

A good tour, not spectacular
Sun, Dec 16, 07   10:00 AM hmaring Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The important areas got covered; a bit of history, sociology, current affairs, economics, etc. However, the coverage of these areas was a bit haphazard and lacked unification. The meal was very good. Hank excelled when it came to food.

Hank gave us a real understanding and appreciation of Chinatown. Knowledgeable and delightful. Although we had lived in San Francisco for a number of years, we learned many new things on the tour.

If you like History and stories..............
Sun, Dec 9, 07   10:00 AM jeannealford Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Dorothy, our first generation, beautiful Chinese guide led us on a personal tour of Chinatown which included personal details from her life and history of the area. Several of the group had read, "A Crack in the Edge of the World", and Dorothy reeinforced the history we had read in that book. Living history.

Great Fun!

We have been to San Francisco several times and decided to try something new. The tour was interesting, informative and delicious! We were lucky enough to have Ms. Fong-Torres as our guide, an added bonus. Seeing Chinatown from her perspective gave us insight we could not have gotten by just walking around as we had done in the past. We HIGHLY recommend the tour.

Best Thing We Did In San Francisco!
Sat, Dec 8, 07   10:00 AM cbronso Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband and I packed our agenda full when visiting San Francisco for our 5th Wedding Anniversary, so full that we now need a vacation from our vacation. The Wok Wiz Tour was by far the best thing we did while we were there. Shirley was amazing. We learned so much about Chinese history and culture and had so much fun!!! The food was excellent and I highly recommend this to anyone. If I could I would give it six stars!

It's Well Worth It
Thu, Dec 6, 07   10:00 AM muabssun Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I had been to Chinatown a few times before on my own walking randomly through the neighborhood. I thought I had gotten some sense of it, but then I went on the Wok Wiz tour and well, I realized how much I didn't know. It really gave me a different perspective on it and now is one of my favorite areas of San Francisco. The of course want to support local merchants so they do encourage you to patronize the shops, but it definitely wasn't pushy or anything. My only wish is that we could have spent another two or three hours, or maybe the whole day touring. It was well worth it.

terrible tour, good lunch
Sun, Dec 2, 07   10:00 AM _membername_ Unspecified Unspecified Local Unspecified
We hoped, as WokWiz advertised, that we'd get to see China Town and the tour would be interesting. Instead, we stood way too long in front of plaques, were taken to shops our guide was only trying to give business to (LOW quality, boring shops), never had the tea tasting, and didn't get to see much other than the doorway to the home our guide was born in, the restaurant our guide's family used to own, the guy our guide dated when she was 14. Down the block and around the corner is a really interesting sight...One block down is this amazing clinker brick building -- but do you think we could see any of these things? The kids on our tour literally looked like they were about to drop dead of boredom. If you want to stand for two hours being bored to death, pressured to buy junk, and hardly walk anywhere, take this tour.

Very enjoyable & informative

Hank, our guide, did an excellent job with the tour. He pointed out historical sites, gave pointers on the local cuisine and shops and showed us parts of Chinatown I would not have thought to see. He was very accomodating, funny, interesting -- I would highly recommend Hank and the tour!

Informative tour
Fri, Nov 30, 07   10:00 AM brgreen Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Dorothy did a great job giving us an overview of the history of Chinatown. She was very informative and knowledgeable. The dim sum lunch was delicious. I got a lot more out of Chinatown because of the background Dorothy provided. Word of warning: dress warmly! You are in shady parts of the street and it can get quite cold.

Pretty interesting

I liked the tour but would have liked to hear more information about the architecture of Chinatown buildings. I did not like the lunch very much - it was too greasy.

Lots of History

We walked down alleys in China town that I know that we wouldn't have tried alone. Chuck was very well versed in local history and knowledge. Lunch was excellent.
