This was such a fun tour! The Emperor was incredibly entertaining while imparting so much information about the city of San Francisco. It was well paced and took us to parts of the city we'd never been to. He had so many little stories about the city and the people who helped create such an exciting place, that it was extremely entertaining. I recommend this highly to visitors and residents.
