Small-group Chinatown to North Beach walk with 7 tastings, tea, dim sum, cannoli, pizza, and local history—about 4 hours for $96.

“Great tour learning so much about the neighborhoods we visited. The tour was much longer than expected running 4.5 hours, but was fun meeting the people in our group. The food was good, and everything that was promised, but with such a long time, it felt more like a walking history tour than a food tour.”

“Brian was an awesome food and North Beach guide. Brian is from the San Francisco and has that extra spunk. Brian enjoys talking and his comedy background brought smiles. There were multiple spots where we went for food and the food can be adjusted for dietary desires. There was quite a bit of food so I would suggest scheduling a later dinner/lunch.”

San Francisco North Beach food and history tour with Blandina Farley. Small-group tastings, Italian ceramics, fudge, and a Chinatown upgrade.

“Blandina takes pride in her North Beach Little Italy neighborhood in SF. She knows so many details of a lot of the stores, restaurants, churches that have been around for 100 years. Everyone knows her! She is very knowledgeable about the music scene and all our local celebrities like Santana, Grateful Dead, Joplin, jack kerouac, etc. There are a few treats to indulge in at a few places like Stella bakery, Palermo Deli, Mario’s Bohemian cigar shop, Z Cioccolato.
