Another must in San Fran! Isabella was an amazing tour guide! Would have never found and been able to sample as much of Little Italy in half a day. The group size of less than 12 made it easier to get around and hear everything she had to say about the city. Food was yum!

Isabella gave us a lovely, informative tour of North Beach, with enough food to make us wish we had not eaten such a large breakfast. We had cannolis, coffee and Italian soda, samples of a fabulous sub, arrancini, another meatball sub on focaccia, fudge, and pizza. All of the food was really go...
Isabella gave us a lovely, informative tour of North Beach, with enough food to make us wish we had not eaten such a large breakfast. We had cannolis, coffee and Italian soda, samples of a fabulous sub, arrancini, another meatball sub on focaccia, fudge, and pizza. All of the food was really good. If anything, I would suggest a pasta sampling be included, but no complaints, as we were very satisfied with the eats and the tour.Denise_M
