Happy customers! - If you want to hear tall tales mixed with historical accuracy, Clyde is your man. His stories awaken the senses and transport you back in time. We loved the funny songs, restaurant recommendations, and he gives you lots of hidden gems to visit on your next adventure to the city.

Clyde Always entertains and informs - Clyde’s tour, which could be called a show, was fun and informative, with some mild exercise the icing on the cake. He regaled us with stories and original songs, while being cognizant of the diverse group. I highly recommend, both for visitors and local!

For sure, surreal and more! - My wife and I have now enjoyed two Surreal walking tours with Clyde, and both have been hilarious, entertaining, and educational. If you are looking for a memorable San Francisco adventure, take Clyde's tour! We look forward to more surreal sessions with Clyde in the future.

Holy (b)aloney - Meet a legend in the making who is making some legends.  Don't wait on this! Once word gets out, I don't doubt that this will be a difficult ticket to book.  Before you know it there will be all sorts of knock-off tours with other singing guides. Don't wait.  Do this one. Walk with the one & only original ukele man Clyde Always!  He takes you back in time through "Frisco" history.  (Uh oh! I've done it now!) Learn how I've just brought unholy calamity upon myself,  and many more tales from San Francisco then & now in this fun & easy 2 hour waking tour through the Mission, Castro,  and Duboce Triangle.  I've done many walking tours in many cities  & I've also done other tours in San Francisco - but this is one of the best & most entertaining I have ever enjoyed.  I had a smile on my face the entire time.  Also I got so many great photos of things I would never have found on my own. Such a fun time!
