Inside San Francisco - Clyde is a wonderful guide who exposes the soul of SanFrancisco. We so enjoyed his colorful approach to our tour with his poetry, songs and beautifully illustrated drawings. Take his tour: you'll be glad you did!

San Francisco delight - Clyde was the best tour guide with whom I have ever traveled. He and his ukulele told stories about the history of San Francisco in such a clever and entertaining manner that the time flew. He spoke about famous people whom he had drawn in pen and ink to help us visualize them. We stopped by houses and spots that only a local could possibly know the significance, such as the “house that time forgot” or a labyrinth one block from where my daughter lived, and we never knew about it!! A wonderful way to spend an afternoon (or morning) in the city. He will even save you from being thrown out of town by telling you which names of the city will do just that. Thank you, Clyde and Kali.

A great time strolling! - I really didn’t know what to expect but I was hoping for a nice stroll around the city while learning some interesting facts about San Francisco. Clyde nailed it! He was so fun, whitty, and very engaging with all of us. There was 8 in our party and Clyde remembered all our names after the introductions! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

Fun SF walk! - 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.
