We had some of the best food on their North Beach tour, however I really enjoyed the great coffee, truffles, and bread. The guide was really fun and took us behind the scenes to see however everything was made. I agree with recommendation about not eating much before. Between the coffee, truffles, foccicia, breads, and more, I was stuffed. And... more

The North Beach tour was the perfect tour for our honeymoon. Not only was food really good and the tour fun, it had just enough of the Italian influence to add a great romantic touch. After reading the other reviews, we skipped breakfast, however we were still stuffed at the end of the tour. I guess that'd what they call... more

I've still got the taste of the truffles and cappuchino in my mouth from the tour and I realize that I've been spoiled by their North Beach tour. After all of great food, I don't think I'll be able to go into a chain restaurant again. And since I learned how everything was made, I know how to spot the... more

Great way to see San Francisco in a different light. Experience some of the best cuisine and sites through a walking tour of North Beach. Cappucino, pastries and bread provided a nice break during the tour. Truly a behind the scenes look at San Francisco eateries. Connie, Richmond, VA more

We took the North Beach tour on our first day in San Francisco and really loved it. Not only was there lots of delicious food, I felt like we got really to experience one of San Francisco's great neighborhoods. The guide introduced us to lots of poeple from the neighborhood, which was the most fun for me. We'll take another... more

I really enjoyed the North Beach tour. The combination of great food and history was exactly what I was looking for. I felt like the tour really got below the surface and I got to really experience San Francisco. I'll definitely take another one of their tours next time that I'm in San Francisco. more

After all of great food I had on their North Beach tour, I think I could be easily convinced to move to San Francisco. I had a lot of fun and I really enjoyed seeing how everything was made. The latte was excellent and I'm still drooling over the truffles. I was stuffed by the end of the tour, but... more

This is totally my style of tour. In fact SF is such a great city, especially if you are a foodie like me. It was up close and personal, we met the shop owners, tasted their goodies and learned about this beautiful city and it's beautiful people. If you want to get herded around the city then don't go on... more

I was a little skeptical at first, I've been on food tours and I was not sure what to expect. To put it midly, the food was great and the tour was lots of fun. I really enjoyed learning how everything was made and thier strong focus on local foods. I had my first great cappuchino and I may go... more

I had family visiting from out of the country. Since they already visited SF few times before, I looked for something unique to do. Eventually, I found "Local tastes of the city" in Yelp and also in Trip advisor. It looked like a fun thing to do so we took the tour. It ended up being such a nice experience... more
