| Conrad was excellent, informative, well organized, and very thorough. I would definitely recommend and will try a different tour the next time. I would recommend you advise the some places are closed on Saturday's due to the Sabbath..I was anxious to go to the pickle place and it was closed! | ||||||

| My husband and I took the tour and we were the only ones on the tour. Our guide was good and knowledgable. We thought that there would be more emphasis on the ethnic Lower East Side, but that is our mistake because the tour is named the Artisan Food Tour. All in all I would recommend the tour. | ||||||

Fun, interesting tour

| I took my parents who were visiting New York city on the lower eastside tour. Not only did they learn a lot, but so did I and I have lived in NYC for 9 years! Joyce is extremely knowledgable not only of the food world, but also the history behind each of the places we visited. It was the perfect mix of culture and good eats! I highly recommend this tour! | ||||||

| What a great tour! The tour guide met me at the appointed place and time and we were soon off on a informative, well-paced tour of fascinating food venues of the Lower East Side that included chocolate, pickles, bialys, coffee, donuts (not really a fair description of the wonderful tastes and textures), and other foods. The guide was extremely knowledgeable as well as courteous, responsive, and great to talk with. This was my first tour with CityFoods (I've been on similar NYC tours given by another group) and I definitely will book more activities with them. Thanks, Conrad, for a super tour! | ||||||

Essex Market tour
|

| My tour guide Conrad was very nice and had obviously studied information on the Essex Market and surrounding area. Going to a different location and learning the history of the area was interesting but having attended several other Foods of NY tours that we thoroughly enjoyed we did not find this one as interesting or as good a value. The tour only lasted 2 hours instead of the 3 hours on the Foods of NY tours and the area was not as nice or as interesting as Chelsea Market or Grenwich Village. Also the food was not nearly as interesting nor did we visit as many eateries. I would highly recommend the Foods of NY tours, but not this one. | ||||||

| I had a wonderful time taking a local girl I recently met to this event. She knows all about the city and even took me to Di Bruno's at the Italian market the day before this event. She was completely surprised and we had a lot to talk about for the next few days. The guides were friendly and engaging and I learned something. Much better then a movie or simply dinner, even the walk through the city from place to place was part of the entertainment. I've already recommended this to my friends so give it a try - you won't regret it! | ||||||

| My boyfriend recently moved from South Jersey to Philadelphia and although we both have been to Philadelphia many times and he works in the city, we discovered new places and learned more about familiar places in the center city area. The tour guides were friendly and well informed. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience and we may try one of the other tours that they have to offer. | ||||||

Excellent tour!

| My husband and I loved this tour of the lower east side! We visited a bunch of interesting food locations, including a unique coffee shop and chocolate stops, all kinds of places that make me want to visit New York City again. Our tour guide was great- he was down to earth, and he knew a lot about the area. I would recommend this tour to anyone else who is not from this area and who easily gets lost below the grid area of Manhattan, and who loves food! | ||||||

| My friends and I spent an absolutely delightful morning with Conrad, our tour guide sampling the hidden culinary delights of the Lower East Side. It was fun to talk to the business owners and taste chocolates, cheeses and other confections. Conrad was knowledgeable and personable. Lots of fun! | ||||||

| I enjoyed walking in this area that I was not familair with but, I found the guide hard to hear (his voice did not carry) and understand. I found his comments were not especially informative. | ||||||

Had A Good Time But Not Great

| The tour I went on was the "Chocolate Lovers" so I expected to experience lots of chocolate but we went to only one chocolate shop, coffee shop and a gelato shop. Although we only went to one chocolate shop, I had the most amazing and best chocolate I ever had in my life called Nama; I would never had discover this amazing chocolate if it wasn't for this tour. I think it would had been better if I had experience more chocolates and samples. But overall it was something nice and different to do in the city. | ||||||

| My parents, who are not from the area, and I had a truly enjoyable time on this tour. We had plenty of high quality food and drink samples. The knowledge of the tour guides and the workers at each destination was extensive. I love the fact that each made learning about fine foods a visual experience having tea leaves, cheese bricks and photos that accompany the verbal information. As a Philly resident, it was nice to be introduced to places I have never been. The tour guides had a relaxed and casual demeanor which made asking questions a breeze. I would definitely consider attending another one of their tours. Although the website provided limited information about this event, I am glad I took the risk. I left the event extremely pleased. | ||||||

| We did enjoy the tour. The pictures were not really necessary,although informative, it made us kind of feel like we were on a field trip from school and not a fun date. The T-Bar and DiBruno brothers were good stops. The staff was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the product. We learned alot on these two excursions. The chocolate place was nice but I felt like they were selling the product vs educating us on the product. I think it would be great to add at least one more stop and take out alot of the talk by the guide. We also are not in the city often, even though I work in the Macy's building, but would have enjoyed having the guide point out or talk about local restaurants or stops that would be fun stops for foodies. I was on the tour with an unwilling participant (my husband who wanted to just eat lunch) and at the end he also said he enjoyed the stops - especially the cheese. | ||||||
