| This was a "birthday" trip for me as my husband's retirement early this year put
a end to an annual "business for him and pleasure for me in New York" trip.
So he tried to make it fun-filled and entertaining. Found this tour online and was so excited to be to come up with it. We both love to find different restaurants and what a perfect way to be introduced to out of the way good little places to eat. Our tour guide, Rajim, was absolutely fabulous - so knowledgable, creative, very nice, courteous, organized and efficient. Did I say "nice"? His varied life interests fit very well in this tour guide capacity.

| Our tour guide, an extremely knowledgable woman who had spent many years in the city, brought us back to the time when Bob Dylan, Jimmie Hendrix, and Bruce Springstein were trying to make it in the local clubs and bars around Bleeker Street. We were introduced to a variety of delicious ethnic foods and enjoyed a walk through Washington Square Park filled with brilliant flowering trees. Crossing over Houston to SoHo was the perfect finishing touch to learining about this delightful area of unique shops and restaurants. We can't wait to sign up for another tour! |

| The food was exceptional. The guide was very personable and informative. This is our second food tour in two different NYC locations, and I would recommend them both. I will also do others. |

| We learned so much while enjoying different and delicious foods. The time passed by too quickly as we were always immersed in the beauty and culture of the neighborhood. |

| We were a group of 3 thirty-something friends and a 14 year old who were all very enthusiastic about the tour. The guide presented lots of information about the Village and So/Ho in a fun and dynamic manner. The food was outstanding. Do this tour on the first day that you are in town, so that you have time to go back to all the restuarants!
We will certainly rebook with you on our next trip back-- it was a great time. |

Nice way to spend an afternoon

| Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable; food samples were delish, especially the first one from the Indian bakery and the last one from the Greek yogurt joint. And the gnocchi at the Italian joint, where we were seated and the chef actually came out and gave us the recipe for the delicious pasta! That, more than anything, really made the tour special. We also enjoyed the bits of music/culture history, such as the stop at Bob Dylan's former home. Two thumbs up from these Southern Californians!
Only nitpick: The peanut butter sandwiches, although delicious, weren't cut apart adequately and that sampling was a little difficult logistically since there was no place to sit down. |

Great combination of history and food!

| I highly recommend this tour as you will get to know the neighborhood alot better and actually know where to eat that isn't a tourist trap. I went back to at least two restaurants from the tour and had a full meal which was great. There is quite a bit of walking on the tour but anyone travelling in New York City realizes that you walk alot no matter what but they even provide you with a bottle of water. Our tour guide went to NYU and so you really get a 'feel' of his passion for this area of New York. Any 'foodie' would be crazy not to want to go on this tour. The best place had to be Monte's. The chef is amazing, and very approachable and humble. I would go on this tour again and again and even try the other tours that they have listed. I cannot recommend this place enough! Truly great!! |
