TAKE THIS TOUR-you won't be disappointed…read more Wow! What a spectacular tour given by an amazing guide! Ryan is very likeable and personable. He is quick to develop a rapport with you. He is extremely knowledgeable and shares the information in a fun, interactive way. I've been on many San Francisco tours over the years, and Ryan's tour is the best, hands down! I only wish that I'd known about his tours sooner-I would've taken most, if not all, of them. I definitely will on my next trip. I took the Telegraph Hill & Old Waterfront tour. I was the only one signed up, but Ryan never let that be an issue. It rained lightly during most of the tour, but we persevered. His excitement, passion and enthusiasm were contagious and never waned. I learned all sorts of fun new facts. I didn't want it to end. TAKE THIS TOUR

He's a true part of the neighborhood, having lived there for decades, and as we walked to the various spots on the tour at least half a dozen people greeted him by name. Stan provided us with a lot of interesting history about the neighborhood and the city as a whole. And seeing some of the iconic sites like the Grateful Dead house and Janis Joplin's house, plus lesser known sites like the SLA safehouse, was really fascinating. I recommend the The Haight Ashbury Flower Power Walking Tour with Stan Flouride!

This sweet little path was the result of hard work - The reason why it's called the Ansel Adams…read morepath is because it's right next to Ansel Adams' home, which still exists! The staircase has a sweet lookout over a valley in the Presidio. Unfortunately for me I now I have to use a mobility device, so it's not accessible. But for those who are able, you can walk on the same path Ansel Adams used to take daily. It's a hidden gem.

It's hardly a thing, but in this town where even the smallest of "hardly a thing" things are on…read moreYelp, and hold significance, it's just hardly a thing but not totally not a thing, so here we are. Tucked into a driveway in West Clay Park is little slot in the fence, a small stairway, and a tiny path that takes you a hundred feet or so from the neighborhood out to the Presidio sign. Why this easement exists, I know not. Why it's named after Ansel Adams, I know not. But I can confirm it exists, that it's in good shape, and that ya, if you're walking and for some reason you don't want to go down 25th, you can go down 24th and take the foot path and still pop out at El Camino Del Mar. It's well taken care of, gives you a small view of Lobos Creek (or at least where Lobos is theoretically, as the water itself is overgrown with green) and adds some variety in your walk. Plus the homes on West Clay Park are almost all super nice and one even has a bench out front to park your caboose. It's not nothing, and it feels like fun little secret back passageway. Fun!

Wow! Nice to see that this company is not only still in business, it's actually grown to something…read morequite spectacular! My wife and I ran into Charlie on a 4th of July trip to SF back in 2008. We planned on going back later that month for my birthday and asked if we could hit him up for a tour of the park. Back then it was just him from what I can tell and we were the only 3 on the tour. The whole experience was perfect - from the meet-up, the tour and instructions. I'm sure my nearly 20 year old review doesn't mean much these days, but I sure am glad that he and his business are doing so well. Highly recommended back then, and that recommendation still holds to this day.

Wonderful Experience with A Taste of SF Tours - Highly Recommend!…read more We recently went on a Muir Woods tour with A Taste of SF Tours, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Our guide, Peter, was excellent--professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. He even texted us the night before to confirm the pickup time and location, which we really appreciated. Peter arrived right on time and emphasized his goal to start early in order to avoid traffic, secure good parking at Muir Woods, and get ahead of the crowds. Sure enough, his planning paid off--we bypassed a traffic slowdown near Mt. Tam, parked conveniently close to the entrance, and entered the park well ahead of the busier groups. This gave us a more peaceful experience and allowed us to take stunning photos without too many people in the background. By the time we were finishing the loop, crowds were just starting to arrive--perfect timing! We had plenty of time to soak in the natural beauty, enjoy the crisp morning air, and take in the quiet serenity of Muir Woods before it got busy. After our walk, Peter took us to Sausalito, where we had the option to either return with him to San Francisco or take the ferry back to Pier 39 or the Ferry Building. We chose the ferry so we could explore Sausalito more leisurely, enjoy a delicious lunch by the bay, and do a bit of shopping. It was a perfect way to end the day. Even though Peter has only been leading tours in SF for six months, he impressed us with how much he knew about San Francisco, Marin, Sausalito, and Muir Woods--he never ran out of interesting facts and stories. He's also a great driver, which helped ease my nerves on the winding road up to Muir Woods. (He mentioned he used to be a Grand Canyon tour guide, so he's clearly experienced with mountain roads!) As a side note, I've lived in San Francisco for 20 years, and this was my first time visiting Muir Woods on a tour. I had avoided driving there myself because of the twisty roads, but taking this tour was the best decision. It was stress-free, enjoyable, and gave me a whole new appreciation for this beautiful spot just outside the city. Highly recommend this tour to both visitors and locals looking for a relaxed, informative, and well-organized way to experience Muir Woods!

One thing I appreciated was how professional they were. When I reached out via email to get added to a tour they responded pretty quickly. Then, once the date and time we're confirmed they sent me a confirmation. Our tour guide (Peter) texted us the day before to confirm the time he would pick us up by the Zeppelin hotel. We parked in a garage right next door to it and it was $18 since we entered by 730. He showed up early and we went off to the next pick up spot. The shuttle was full but comfortable. We got to see some great sites. It was nice to check out the Golden Gate Bridge from a different angle. The Muir Woods were beautiful!!! Thanks to Peter, we got there early before all of the crowds that were coming in as we were leaving. Sausalito was a nice area. We had a really nice time on this tour and would do a tour with this company again.
