| We had high expectations after reading all the raving reviews and recommendations from our friends who had already experienced this tour. The tastings were delicious, and we can't wait to go back to eat there again. The tour guide was quite knowledgeable and informative, however we felt she was not very personable. |

| Unfortunately we had to cancel. Our friends that were joining us from Detroit had a death in their family. We plan to reschedule later in the summer.
Thank you.. |

Great way to combine history and eating!

| My husband and I are "foodies" and love to try out new foods and new places. We have been in NYC many times, but tended to stick to the "touristy" areas. We are very glad we tried something different and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn about other areas of NYC.
Barrie was our guide, she is very knowledgeable about the area and the many great places to eat in Greenwich Village. She made the tour enjoyable for all of us. The city is always very noisy and Barrie could always be heard, even with tour buses going by.
Both my husband and I remarked afterward that one of the best parts of the tour was that we didn't try "usual" types of foods. Each little tidbit was great, from the cupcake as a starter to the yogurt to finish. My favorite was the smoked mozarella -- to die for!
We are already trying to find time to try one of the other two tours offered.

| This was my 3rd Zerve walking tour and they all have been excellent. The guides are very knowledgeable, pleasant and you can tell that they love their job. My family and I love hearing about the history of one of the greatest cities in the world. Highly recommend these walking tours for locals and tourist alike. |

An enjoyable afternoon

| I've now done all three of the Foods of New York tours and have never regretted any of them. I will say that of the three, this was my least favorite and I would recommend one of the other two tours if you've only got the time for one. But if you can, do all three! They're great for native New Yorkers and tourists alike. I liked the history on the Greenwich Village tour the most and the food on the Chelsea Market tour the most. But the Soho tour is also perfectly delightful. |

| I took this tour with my father-in-law. We are both from the NY area and really enjoyed every aspect of the tour. The food was great, the tour was informative and we plan on testing out a few of the restaraunts in the future. |

| As with the other tours this one was excellant. Barri did a great job giving us a true taste of ethnic NYC. The weather was cold but we barely felt it with all the activity. Lots of places I would definitely go back to. If you are looking to make improvements though I would find just a few more places to 'sit'. 2 hours into the tour I found myself searching for a second wind. (Of course I found it at the next tasting :) ). |
