The Best Food and History Tour of North Beach and Beyond! Enjoy the tastiest food outside of Italy with Blandina, a legendary local, in a fun, fascinating and interactive walk through San Francisco’s historic and culturally rich Italian Community, also as a mecca for poets, painters, musicians, master crafters, dreamers and free spirits. Blandina lives in the Heart of North Beach and it is her great pleasure to introduce you to friends and neighbors who are proprietors of shops, restaurants, and working art studios where you will have the opportunity to enjoy delicious home made tastes, meet artists, share stories, and perhaps acquire a memento from one of our talented artisans or even make some art of your own…Blandina's hope is that when you return home you will take with you a genuine understanding and appreciation of North Beach; a beautiful memory to treasure, and look forward to returning to San Francisco with a sense of homecoming.
