Each one of our San Francisco tours explores the soul of a neighborhood. We have a passion for life, for trying new things, for living life to its fullest. San Francisco is one of the culinary capitals of the world and every block has its own unique feeling and foods.
On every one of our sojourns into San Francisco neighborhoods, we'll go into local bakeries, restaurants, and cafes, and taste the food. We know these places because these are the places we go to ourselves. We don't go and look at "tourist" shops. Our San Francisco tours takes you into, to spend time with, local artisans as they practice their crafts, whether it is calligraphers, bakers, or families who have been fishing for generations.
Local Tastes of the City San Francisco Tours is a group of passionate, professional, and certified guides with years of experience leading adventures in our San Francisco tours. We live here; we can't imagine living anywhere else. We love the City and want you to also experience its magic.

Booking with Spaciously

Book an activity with a few clicks

To book, follow the secure checkout process on the website. This will reserve your host's time.

If you need extra help with anything, just leave us a note in the "Comments" field! We're happy to help with food and venue recommendations.

After you check out, you will receive a confirmation email and a receipt. Very shortly after that, our team will reach out to connect you with your host and help with the logistics and questions!

Expect no extra fees or charges

All prices are upfront. There are no extra charges beyond what you pay when you book. In 99% of cases, hosts won't ask for tips because they're already included in the price.

All activities are private

All activities you see on Spaciously are private. You will get a dedicated instructor. You will also get either an entire venue or a section of a venue to yourselves.

All activities are available

If our calendar allows you to pick a date and time, your activity is available! In the rare scenario that your host has an emergency and can't make the date, it's our responsibility to find you a substitute host or a substitute activity quickly. If you don't like the options, we'll send you a full refund.

Ask us a question

We are here to make sure your team gets the event they will enjoy. Helping you find the best activity for your team is the best part of our job. Send us a chat message, a text (415 798-0382) or an email (hello@spaciously.io). If you contact us in the morning or early afternoon, we'll respond in a few minutes.

Trust Spaciously hosts

We work only with highly reliable hosts. Every single one of our hosts is a small business owner. We either saw them in action, received a recommendation from another client or had a personal call to go over their proposed activity. Small business owners spend years mastering their skills. They put great care into planning your experience.

Organize a team-building activity at your office

People love when they don't have to go out of their way for team-building. Invite the activity host to travel to your venue by selecting the option "My venue/office."

Some building management companies don't allow certain activities, e.g. cooking if you don't have a kitchen. Make sure you check this before you book.

Most buildings require a certificate of insurance. A one-off certificate of insurance costs ~$150 online, but 99% of the time, our hosts can provide one for free. There may be some back-and-forth with your building management to agree on the coverage, but we are happy to collaborate with you on this.

Cancel or change your reservation

Refer to the cancelation policy on each listing when you book to see how much time you have to cancel your reservation. To cancel, answer the email thread we will start with you or contact hello@spaciously.io.

Regardless of the cancelation policy, hosts usually allow you to move the time of your booking a bit or to add a few more people. We are very collaborative when it comes to small event adjustments. Ultimately, we all want your event to be successful because we want to be your partners for a long time!

Reviews of Spaciously

I had a concierge service except the price wasn’t a secret. I knew exactly what I was getting. And the communication was right there with it.

Spaciously was great to work with and flexible in the planning process. The event was fun, informative, and easily adapted to our needs and setup. I highly recommend working with this company.

We booked a tea ceremony with Spaciously. Our guests had a one-of-a-kind experience, and our staff felt supported and at ease.
