Very interesting and informative. Kristy were a really nice and knowledgeable guide. Went by myself and this is such a good way to get to know the city, the secret spots and meet people.

Discover the flavors and stories that make San Francisco’s Mission District a true culinary and cultural hotspot. Once home to Irish, German, and Italian immigrants, the Mission District is now the heart of Latino culture in San Francisco, known for its colorful murals and diverse food scene. Led by a local guide, this experience goes beyond food. As you walk through the neighborhood, you’ll learn about the communities that shaped the Mission and the cultural meaning behind its art, architecture, and cuisine. The tour begins with an artisan focaccia square from a beloved local bakery, followed by a Mission-style baby burrito from a neighborhood taqueria. You’ll then enjoy a Filipino-Mexican fusion taco (tocino) and traditional Mexican sweet bread from a long-standing bakery. The experience is completed with our Signature Secret Dish, revealed only during the tour. Perfect for food lovers and curious travelers, this tour offers an authentic way to experience the Mission District.

We had a fantastic experience on this food tour of San Francisco’s Chinatown and North Beach. Our guide was friendly, engaging, and very knowledgeable about the area’s history and key locations. The food samplings were terrific—delicious and well-chosen. A great way to learn about the city while enjoying amazing food.
