We loved the tour! Amazing history and amazing ghost/haunting stories! It was a nice walk through parts of the city and so fun to learn the history of the buildings and people who established them. The tour guide was great and friendly and knowledgeable! Highly recommend! Bring a jacket and hat and comfy shoes.

A couple of my friends indulged my love of all things ghosty and historic for a birthday gift. We joined the Boos and Booze pub crawl with Ben as our guide and had the best friggn time! The tour was put together to keep the pace flowing, the history interesting, and the best spooky vibes throughout. Ben couldn’t have been a better guide. He set such a fun energy for the whole group between his storytelling, crazy knowledge, and sense of humor. Highly recommend. 🖤👻

We had a great time with our family hearing the stories of San Francisco. It was a great thing to do with the family during our holiday vacation. Everybody enjoyed it we range from ages 12 to 53. It’s always great to find an outing the preteen, teen, and 20 some things all enjoyed with us. Be forewarned: We are all really fit so we were happy to get in our steps… and… there is a steep uphill hike up Knob Hill. Be prepared for some cardio!

We had a great experience last night on our tour given by Mike & his sweet pup Oakley~!!! The weather was perfect for a walk to learn about San Franciscos infamous past, & see things we've never seen before even though we have come to the city for 50+ years. It was amazing how much knowledge Mike has of the city, and you can tell he loves teaching others little facts about it. Excellent tour that we enjoyed very much~! Thanks Mike.

Had so much fun exploring downtown San Francisco with our tour guide Mike and his pup Oakley! Very knowledgeable about the history of the city and was really invested in the stories. Ended the night by giving tips about local restaurants and history about our hotel. Definitely recommend!!

We had a group of 20 middle school students and even after a long day of sight seeing it was such an intriguing part of our trip. The kids loved our guides dog Oakley and had so many questions. Definitely a fun tour to take for history with a twist.
