| I liked the tour because we had samples of all different ethnic foods. The history was interesting although I think someone who was a Jazz lover and loved contemporary authors would really like it. |

| Our guide, Rahim was very knowledgeable and answered ALL our questions. He put so much enthusiasm in the tour, one could not help but have fun!!! Mari, to whom I gifted this tour, is vegetarian and Rahim was very thoughtful in supplying her with meals to the best of his ability and Mari was very grateful.
We thought Rahim was so good that Mari and I have booked the Sushi tour for Thursday, Sept 27th.
I will also book the "original" Greenwich tour in the fall.
Thanks for such a great time!

| the guide was very knowledgeable and gave out really good information. The food was just more than a bite, very substantial helpings, and I think most persons did not have lunch. I also liked the handout with all the names and addresses and bios on some of them. Best handout I have been given in a long long time. |

| It was a wonderful day when we went, so check the weather close to the date. Wear comfortable shoes also, there's a lot of walking involved. Our guide Rahim was well versed in the local foods as well as the history of the area, very much recommended. |

| Our tour guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We really got a "taste" of the area and can't wait to go back on my own and try my favorites. I recommend it to anyone. |

| This is a great tour, with lots of interesting information going way beyond food that you could not get out of a guidebook! I have already revisited three of the spots on the tour and plan to take friends to many more. Highly recommended not only for tourists, but also for locals or people who just moved into the neighborhood. You will learn about the history of the area as well as discover some off-the-beaten path things to do (jazz and comedy clubs) and plenty of delicious places to eat. |

| My boyfriend and I are from New Jersey and decided to head into the city for the day. I was looking up a tour we could take and my parents recommended a Food and Culture Tour. This experience was wonderful! It was one of the hottest days of the year, and we still had an excellent time together. Learning about the culture of NY and sampling food from various places were highlights from this trip. I highly recommend this tour to anyone. I can't wait to do another food tour of NY! |

| I HAVE DONE THE CHELSA MARKET TOUR WITH CINDY. LOVED IT!! THIS ONE DOES NOT COMPARE..
WE HAD TO WAIT OUTSIDE AT MOST OF THE TASTINGS,THE FOOD WAS JUST O.K.. NO ONE WAS HAPPY WITH IT. THE FOOD IN THE MARKET WAS GREAT.
THE DAY WAS THE HOTEST OF THE YEAR. . NOT GOOD FOR OUTSIDE TASTINGS. WE FELT RUSHED. MAYBE THE GUIDE HAD TO MUCH AREA TO COVER. SHE WAS NOT HAPPY WHEN PEOPLE LAGGED BEHIND..
I AM BRINGING A GROUP IN TO DO THE GREENWICH VILLAGE TOUR, I HOPE IT MEASURES UP TO THE CHELSA MARKET TOUR!! |

| I had a blast. It was such a wonderful delight to be on this tour. My friend and I enjoyed the architectural history about each site and the food was splendid. The tour guides really did a great job explaining everything and I learned alot about the history of many famous people and places from the past and present. I really had fun. Also now I know more about Soho, the Village and all the great comedy clubs and nightclubs that I hope to check out. I am going to tell all of my friends about this great event and I am sure they will enjoy it as much as I did. |

| The guide was informative both of the history of the surrounding area and the attractions. He kept us moving at a steady but not to fast pace. The food was great and we discovered a lot of new restuarants and shops to visit in the future. Many of my co-workers and friends were surprised and the reasonable cost and the small group. I came back with rave reviews of the experience and will definitely try the other tours! |
