Members Who Went Said:
It was very interesting and informative. It was a nice combination of walking and talking that lasted a little over two hours and covered the area and events quite nicely. I would recommend it to a local or a visitor!
T It was great, though I was only able to attend the first half of it, due to other plans. Totally entertaining, a really good presenter. I'd recommend it.
glenhart Very good tour. The tour guide was personable and funny and had lots of good information about the neighborhood. This tour was more walking (less standing) than other tours — which for me was a good thing! I brought two teens and even they enjoyed it. |

Event Highlights
More Details About This Event: This comedian-led tour takes the intrepid traveler on a vivid trip through the heart of the Haight-Ashbury district, the birthplace of the cultural revolution that sparked the '60s. You'll see the locations of some of the most memorable events of the Summer of Love, as well as the former homes of the Grateful Dead, the Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, and other notable characters. The tour also discusses the music, poster art, and lifestyles that defined the Hippie era in San Francisco's most colorful neighborhood.
