This was both fun and educational at the same time
Fri, Aug 24, 07   10:00 AM TomKeller Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our guide was very personable and tried hard to keep all of us happy. We learned about many chinese customs, past and present. We loved the visit to the tea shop where we learned the proper way to brew tea, and got to sample several different types. The fortune cookie factory was fun. They are so tasty! I will carry my good luck necklace from the temple with me when interviewing for a new job! The lunch was good, and very filling. I tried several things I probably would never have tried on my own. We had a good time. I recommend this tour.

Great way to really appreciate Chinatown!
Fri, Aug 24, 07   10:00 AM ormp26 Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We are a group of friends who enjoy traveling and who enjoy learning about new places. We all felt that our "tourist dollar" had been well spent with this tour. Having a guide who grew up in Chinatown was terrific. The personal memories that she shared made the history of San Francisco and Chinatown come to life for us. She was alert to the needs of the group and was attentive to our requests and questions. The visit to the tea shop and to the temple were particular favorites for us.

A fun and informative tour of Chinatown!
Thu, Aug 23, 07   10:00 AM sariscak Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
This tour was a great introduction to Chinatown! The tour guide was a native Chinatown resident. She shared interesting stories of her childhood life in Chinatown that were sometimes funny, sometimes serious, and always interesting. The tour was an easy walk with many stops in the non-tourist areas and the dim sum lunch at the end was delicious and filling.

Tour of Chinatown with lunch
Wed, Aug 22, 07   10:00 AM mjudyzerve Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I thought this was going to be a "food tour". Instead, it was a very interesting tour of Chinatown, with a delicious lunch at the end. Not bad - but not what I was expecting. I was expecting multiple eating stops.

I loved this tour
Wed, Aug 22, 07   10:00 AM aobrien23 Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This tour was so much more than a walking tour. Our tour guide Dorothy brought Chinatown past and present to life with her insightful commentary and familiarity with local businesses. I also loved that she taught us Chinese phrases and made us practice on local shopkeepers. Last but not least, the lunch was delicious!

Alberta

Alberta was our tour leader and she was great. I haven't stopped talking about this tour since I have been home. The tour was truly unique and unlike anything I have ever done before. Alberta was terrific, she had a relationship with all of the shops and was very clear with us about what the agenda was going to be and how it was going to work. I highly recommend this tour.

This tour was a lot of fun, and we learned a lot too. it was well organized, and the leisurely pace was perfect. Our guide was well informed, friendly, and enthusiastic. It was also easy to hear her. We plan on taking other freinds on this tour when they come out here for vacation.

good historical tour of Chinatown and dim sum
Sun, Aug 19, 07   10:00 AM susanimke Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Our guide Lola was animated and knowledgeable. "Saving" the tea demo until right before the dim sum lunch was not the best order. The temple stop seemed a bit contrived; not the major Buddhist Temple in Chinatown. Lunch was good, but a bit pricey at $12 over the tour price alone. Guide pointed out many great restaurants in the area. Susan

really liked having as a guide someone who actually grew up in Chinatown- understood language and culture- and was able to include that knowledge during the tour. Liked fact that our tour included a variety of shops and locations

Great Fun
Sat, Aug 18, 07   10:00 AM stlindau Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
the guide was knowledgeable and provided much local color with her own family history as the foundation for an informative and interesting tour that was too short!

Shirley made the tour!
Sat, Aug 18, 07   10:00 AM sdmerrin Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
Shirley was a fabulous tourguide. She is so knowledgable and enthusiastic! The tea shop, small art gallery, visiting the temple and lunch were all very memorable! We never knew there was so much great history in Chinatown. Thank you, Shirley, for sharing all of your tips! You are great at what you do!!

Great way to see Chinatown
Sat, Aug 18, 07   10:00 AM SallyShapiro Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I highly recommend the Wok Wiz tour. Our leader, Lola, was friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to make sure that everyone could hear her and stay with her as we toured. We had a much better understanding of Chinatown than we would have if we had just walked through ourselves. The dim sum lunch was great and we couldn't even begin to finish all of the food served to us.

learned lots and had fun
Fri, Aug 17, 07   10:00 AM Joelle56 Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Great to walk through Chinatown with someone who grew up there...went to places, eg. Taoist Temple, tea shop and herbalist that I might not have entered on my own...Alberta was very knowledgeable and her stories were great. A family member who was with me had some trouble hearing on the busy streets....perhaps some accompanying written material would be helpful. Enjoyed the stop for a lunch at the end of the trip.,..food was good and a nice way to take leave of Chinatown.
