Description:

Experience the locals-only side of San Francisco in one of its most timeless neighborhoods on this historical walking tour with a twist. Explore Chinatown’s vibrant culture and delve into its storied past with a passionate guide leading the way.

Meet up with your guide, an energetic and artistic San Franciscan with a genuine enthusiasm for the City by the Bay. Walk with them them through hidden alleys and back streets as you explore Chinatown, a complex neighborhood with a lot going on beneath the tourist-packed surface.

Follow the sugary scent of fortune cookies as you hear stories about gambling dens, gang wars, and revolutionary leaders. Check out interesting architecture and pagoda-like temples, and hear about the impact of the Great Earthquake of 1906 on this close-knit community—the largest Chinese enclave outside of Asia.
