| My husband and I love to take tours like this in cities that we visit for the first time; but living just across the river, we forget that so many wonderful opportunities are available right here in the tri-state area. Being able to visit an area of the city that is not only so rich in history but a celebration for your taste buds was a plus! We love finding eateries and shops that offer authentic dishes and merchandise. |

| Great foods choices, some you would not think of trying like the filled rolled Indian Bread,delicious! The information about the village and Soho area was quite interesting! Wandering this area with a purpose will make future trips to the city and the Village even more fun. Many thanks to our tour guide Susan.
Have gone on two tours now with the same group of friends and will definetly do more in the future! How about some greek food tours!
Yummy and we want some more,

| The tour was great but it is a little long--I thought the tour guide should have kept us moving a little quicker. I know she didn't want to seem to rush us but towards the end we were tired and it would have been better if she had just hurried us along the whole time to get everything in 3 hours or less.... |

| The tour was great... but, it is a walking tour, and 3 hours is a little long, so wear sneakers. The restaurants that we stopped at were fun little places that you might pass by if they were not pointed out. And the food was fantastic... a variety of ethnicities were covered, and I definitely tried new dishes that I wouldn't have even known how to order. We even stopped at a restaurant that was based solely on peanut butter!! Additionally, the tour guide gives you the history of the buildings and shops in the area, so you understand why one shop is still there, while others have become, unfortunately, McDonalds. |

| Very well balanced agenda that provided a good mix of local history, social evolution of the area, and the resultant foods and restaurants in the neighbourhood. The choice of restaurants and shops was very appropriate.
Our guide was very well informed and did an outstanding job. |

| Susan, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the Greenwich/Soho tour. It was very enjoyable and the food tastings were outstanding. I would recommend this activity and I will definitely try out some of the other offerings. |

| I had a wonderful day. Our tour guide, Susan, was terrific and full of great knowledge of the area. The tastings were very good and fresh. The portions were perfect. I left with a full belly and a new understanding of the area. Great time!!!! Will do it again. |

| It was nearly 90 degrees and our tour guide Susan was thoughtful enough to keep us in the shade while speaking the culture and providing us with a few air conditioned stops to get refreshed. The food was grand and definately will be comnig back with friends to try some of the other places on the tour.
My one recomendation would be to do plain fresh mozzarella as our group (50%) dont like smoked food and the smoked cheese was potent... The sausage from across the street on the other hand was FANTABULOUS!
cheers. |
