Very unique tour of San Francisco

Published on Jan, 2025

I highly recommend taking the tour with Clyde. It was funny, catching and very informative. I enjoyed every minute of the tour.

Fun SF walk!

Published on Jan, 2025

Clyde was personable and funny. He told us a bunch of things that we didn’t know about San Francisco despite us having lived in the Bay Area for the past 25 years. We had a great sunny day which was perfect for a nice walk in the city. Highly recommended.
