SK Morton’s Lousy San Francisco Walking Tour

SK’s tour was great! I am from the SF Bay Area and am familiar with some of the history, but SK gave so much more information that was detailed, interesting and totally entertaining! I liked that our group was on the small side with just six participants; I felt at ease walking and asking questions. We did the Yerba Buena Leg tour, and I definitely want to do another tour with SK. I would recommend this tour to both locals and tourists!

SK’s tour of China Town was so informative, fun and funny! SK is one of a kind! A walking encyclopedia of SF history along with a self effacing and fun sense of humor all along the way. If a walking tour is what you’re up for, SK is your man!

RUN DON’T WALK TO THIS ABSOLUTELY INSPIRED WALKING HISTORY MAGNET OF ALL THINGS SAN FRANCISCO.
Literally, I said to SK, the very first place you took me to and told me about, if the tour stopped here, I got my money’s worth.
The combination of rich story-​telling by SK and the engaging sites and sounds of Downtown San Francisco made for the highlight of my stay in San Francisco.
Who would think something called lousy would be so great!!! Here you obtain the real, in-​depth stories of how the West was won and where the bodies were buried. Remember when we think early San Francisco, we are talking about the Wild West. And boy oh, boy were there doozies.
What other tour will tell you the history behind the words «limelight» and «sugar daddy» — both San Francisco originals.
You do not have to read anymore Unilocal Your Reviews. Just book this one and enjoy the very entertaining ride!

Great tour and tour guide! There is so much history in SF and our tour guide was both imformative and fun. He even gives you a link to follow along on your smart phone if you’d like with pictures and neat info. He knows so much about the city, he welcomes questions and delivers the information with a great sense of humor. It’s a great activity to do with friends and family and I highly recommend SK Morton’s Lousy SF Walking Tour.

A great walking tour!!! He made it fun and informative. He is not only funny but also kind and showing personal care to individuals on the tour, that makes his tour even more memorable. I will never see SF the same after his tour!

Let’s start with this: this tour was lousy with awesomeness!!! I love San Francisco! It’s home, but there’s always so much to discover. The lousy tour presses hard on both of those buttons. The tour taught me new things about places I’d been a million times, took me to new places I’d never even heard about and inspired me to explore! The tour guide may be lousy, but he’s so knowledgable and excited about San Francisco! Seeing San Francisco through his eyes is a delight and put another facet on my love of this city. SKs quick wit and depth of knowledge make this lousy tour a MUST when visiting this great city!

Awesome tour of the Yerba Buena district. SK is knowledgable, entertaining, and turns San Francisco into a wonderland of information and fun. He was very kind and accommodating regarding our stroller-​bound grandson and was able to nimbly adjust the walking route to make it easier for us. An SK Morton tour is an absolute MUST for visitors to San Francisco!

What can I say about SK and his Lousy tour? It was amazing! I had been looking for a tour to do with my teenage kids while we were in San Francisco and was very excited to have the Chinatown tour we took go far beyond what we imagined!
Host: SK is a wonderful tour guide. He jokes with those on his tours, makes them feel welcome, and ensures everyone is together before continuing onto the next spot of interest. He was also observant to the fact that, as tourists, we may take a little time to snap a few photos or linger at a building — he never rushed us but encouraged us to ask questions.
Tour: Awesome! My son said this was his favorite part of our visit to SF. You learn so much about the city while on this tour, but not in a way that makes you feel you are on some classroom field trip. The Chinatown tour took us through streets where a tourist could wander into many shops, but also the backside of Chinatown where you can see a different aspect of this part of town, hear stories and important buildings, discover a few alleys, beautiful views of town, and history of Portsmouth Square. We went to the fortune cookie factory and tasted teas, had a great time.
I would definitely recommend this tour to those visiting San Francisco. It was a very wonderful time and we look forward to going on a different leg when we visit again in the future.

It was funny. It was interesting. It was informative. It was easier than I thought! lol Our guide even sent us pictures. The best lousy tour ever!

Oh my goodness! That was AWESOME! took the tour with a bunch of friends and had a great time. He not only made us laugh but he got us all joking around too. I live in the city but he showed us some things I’d never seen or done before.
I would highly recommend this tour to people visiting the city. You’ll get an overview of the things every tourist needs to see but also some stuff a lot of locals aren’t that familiar with. (Most of us were familiar with Maiden lane but had never experienced the street performances or gone inside the museum designed by Frank Loyd Wright).
SK was also really cool with people we ran into that weren’t a part of our tour. He even let a couple from Europe follow along with us for a few stops when he noticed them following from a distance. Of course they were the butt of his jokes the whole time, but they seemed to enjoy it. He’s pretty sarcastic but very nice to the kids. Kind of the way the muppets on Sesame Street would interact with kids while telling jokes that their parents would get.
The only thing I didn’t like was the weather. It was a really windy day and later it got cold and I wouldn’t have minded him cutting things short. After it was over I told him that I had been really cold and he apologized and said he would have made adjustments if he had known so I would recommend telling him if there are any problems. He seems really eager to keep everyone happy and comfortable.
I would definitely give him 5 stars and will definitely take another tour with him again.
