We had such a great tour with Michael, the narrative about the history of the district and how the communities and cuisine evolved made us feel present and added to our enjoyment of the food we sampled. The history of the murals added another layer of interest. Dietary requirements were catered for with no stress

Overall, this is a very good tour.
Michael, our guide, was friendly and very knowledgeable about the Mission District, the restaurants in the area, and SF as a whole. The food was very good and we left full. It was nice that we always walked a few blocks between food stops to give us time to digest.
Note that no drinks are provided on this tour. Other tours I've done have typically included some kind of drink. The places we went to did have interesting options, like sangria, agua fresca, horchata, but we had to pay for those ourselves. Guess that's OK, given the price point. Just pointing it out.
My only other comment is that while we got a ton of information on the area and its history, we did not get much information about the food itself or the people behind it. While eating, we were pretty much left alone. Michael was great at answering questions if we asked them, but I was surprised we didn't get some kind of "story" in each place we stopped. I'm a foodie and a local, so was familiar with everything we had; but others may not, for example, have known what an "arepa" was.

A taste of the Mission District booming food scene was a great 3 hour walk. Michael B led the way, shared his knowledge and in closing, we finished at the scrumptious Tartine Bakery. Loved it.
