What a fun evening! We were celebrating a friend’s birthday and since she loves ghost tours and Italian food, this was a perfect fit. The stops were a great mix of entertaining storytelling and yummy food. Robert is a phenomenal guide who was so thoughtful and knowledgeable. We even enjoyed a special birthday treat for my friend and another guest—complete with candles! Really couldn’t ask for more.

We took the gourmet ghost tour, which included locations in North Beach / Little Italy and Chinatown. Robert was our guide. He was knowledgeable on such a range of topics, especially San Francisco history and food - and of course supernatural phenomena in the area. We started at the San Remo Hotel with a lovely collection of appetizers, including gnocchi, calamari and focaccia. And we had three other great food stops along the way. We would rrecommend this tour for anyone, newcomers and locals alike.

This place is not exaggerating when they call themselves Stretchy Pants - we ate so much delicious food! - but it was so much more than just dim sum and tea. Our amazing guide, Jacob, took us around Chinatown where we learned all about the neighborhood’s history in a fun and engaging way. I’d recommend this tour for tourists and locals alike, and hope to use them to tour another neighborhood very soon!
