What People Are Saying
Nick S about Homelessness Walking Tour
Highly Unique Insights Into Homelessness
Milton is the man! He's also someone you would likely never meet unless you were homeless yourself. On his exceedingly candid tour of the Tenderloin, Milton provides both objective insights and complex opinions about the overlapping cycles of poverty, violence, addiction, mental illness and other misfortunes that plague this small section of town. Overall, it's a very unconventional tour, and that's what makes it so enlightening. My entire family took the tour and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Jake M about Homelessness Walking Tour
Insightful and also important tour to do
Milton is a charismatic guide who understands the realities of living on the street as well as the underlying social problems that keep people on the street. The tour is inspiring and we'd highly recommend it, with our only suggestion being that it could be slightly shorter.
June L about Homelessness Walking Tour
Having so little and doing so much
I went on this tour and worked in a soup kitchen with Milton, and he is such an amazingly inspiring, friendly, and imaginative person. Even though he's homeless, he volunteers at GLIDE and helps to feed others who are also in need. He embodies what Vayable is: he has a unique perspective and gives you access to a world many people have strong opinions about yet do not understand. After spending a few hours with Milton, you'll understand the day-to-day on the streets, the chronic issues that prevent progress, and what it's really about.
Vayable Team L about Go homeless for a day
The Heart of San Francisco
Milton is extremely knowledgeable about the history, economics, and culture of homelessness in San Francisco. He will tour you around his own stomping grounds in the Tenderloin with insight and care, and give you a truly insider understanding of the neighborhood that rests in the heart of San Francisco. This experience is not for the faint of heart and we suggest bringing a friend or two along if you are unfamiliar with this part of San Francisco.
Jamie W about Go homeless for a day
New perspectives on the Tenderloin
Milton guided us through the key landmarks of the tenderloin that inform his and many others' experience living without in San Francisco: from soup kitchens to shelters, the police station and learning centers, children centers, and more. Milton's stories and the sites of this tour were sometimes devastating, to be sure, but the experience of learning about his life from the inside, rather than passing through on a double-decker bus, was inspiring for everybody that knowledge can lead to empowerment and change.
