Jamie our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area and all the pubs we visited. He had super cool stories along with pictures to show our group along the way. We had a great time!
Fun two hour walk & drink in SF

Getting to know the group and the guide during the walks was as much fun as the history & stories that Jamie shared with us.
Super haunted!

Educational and fun !
Sarah_B, Apr 2024
The guide was kind , funny , intuitive and knowledgeable. He also gave the tour through an anti colonialism lens and was very respectful of discussing different culltural views and experiences of oppression. It was great to have conversations as a group I have lived in San Francisco for 25 years and I learned so much more history about this amazing place . I can’t wait to go back and explore more history on my own . I loved seeing the wild parrots and walking through North Beach and Chinatown at night . The bars were cool too , but we were often outside so it would be a fine tour for someone to go on even if they don’t drink . The walk wasn’t too far either - 2 people in the group had some mobility concerns and they did just fine . We had an excellent night and it left me inspired.

Jamie was fantastic! He knew his stuff and his enthusiasm made the tour even better. I also appreciate that he was early and texted everyone as to where he was, what he was wearing.

Eric was a VERY entertaining and knowledgeable tour guide! We not only learned about some hauntings and true crime, but also about the history of San Francisco from its founding to the present day. Even though I've lived in the Bay Area for 2 years I discovered new areas of the city and places I never would've gone to otherwise. Highly recommended!
Response from Host, Oct 2023

Isis_C, Oct 2023
Had fun. Great company and Jamie the host was very knowledgeable and seemed to love what he does. The stories were more gruesome than scary, but still made for good stories and a good time. Would definitely do again and recommend Jamie!

Thanks so much for your review!
Good stories in shady areas
Karen_P, Sep 2022
Met at Barbarossa for pickup then walked to Old Ship Saloon. Stories were good, however the trip went down alley ways and into the “shady” parts of town. Definitely uncomfortable. We ended at the Lion’s Den and the guide just disappeared. Have no idea where he went or why we ended at that place.
Response from Host, Sep 2022
Hi Karen, So sorry you didn't get the full history of Lion's Den which is a reincarnation of a club from the 1930s/40s. It is confirmed haunted by the new owner and bartenders who experienced lots of activity during construction. However, I am shocked that you considered anywhere on the tour "shady." People come from all over the world to visit Chinatowns alleyways. The only other alleyways we traverse are in Jackson Square - one of the chicest parts of San Francisco! I shudder to think what you thought of the rest of the city.
