| 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 :) ). |

The tour was informative and interesting.

| We had a fantastic time on this tour. The food was delicious and interesting. The guide was extremely knowlegeable about the area. I found the historical part of the tour as interesting as the food part (and I loved the food part!) It was a fun way to spend an afternoon and a great way to learn about some eateries to revisit in the future. |

| At $20 (the promotional price) this was a major bargain!! We got to try food in places I probably never would have stepped foot inside, and everything was delicious. The history of the area was neat too. I highly recommend this tour. |

| The tour was very interesting and informative. The food tasting was a great variety that proves how nyc is so rich with culture from different worlds. I've lived in NY for most of my life yet would probably not have tried, ventured into or even notice many of the places that we stopped at on the tour. I highly recommend this tour and look forward to taking one of the other tours that are being offered. |

| I had a wonderful, educational, interesting, fascinating time on the tour. The two guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and considerate. (I appreciated their trying to keep us in the shade-and for asking us to consider the feelings of the actor we saw in the tea shop!) The food was terrific. I loved trying things I never would have considered before. Just please be careful of the foil that was found in some of the sandwiches, mostly at the Indian Bread Shop.
Something that would be helpful would be a map for us to look at in advance, so we have an idea of where we are going. I got very mixed up with my sense of direction at first. Fortunately, I knew a little bit of the area, so I was able to reorient myself, but a map in advance with the route marked would be so helpful. Also, one bottle of water is not enough for a hot day. (Thank you for the Jamaican soda. That was refreshing.) If it is not possible to provide us with more water along the way, then at least recommend that we come with our own, or stop somewhere where we can purchase some.
Thank you for getting my son that banana and honey pressed toast sandwich when you found out he could not have cheese. That was a very personal, considerate touch.
I am looking forward to booking more tours with you. I want to take my husband next time. It was like going on a mini vacation that day. Oh, that potato pizza was the BEST!!!! |

| It was a lot of fun and very informative! I especially liked going into the specialty shops and the possibility of buying things for home (we live here in the city)!! I really enjoyed the insider information (where Bob Dylan used to live, etc.) Great tour!! |

| I recently went on one of the trial tours and really enjoyed finding out more about what the Greenwich Village and SOHO had to offer. I have walked passed many of the places that were mentioned on the tour many times before and never knew the exciting history behind the sites. I loved the tastings- freshly made mozzarella cheese, potato pizza, homemade yogurt, etc.... I will definitely go back to the small old-fashioned family run stores only known to the locals. I recommend going on this tour to anyone who is into food, history or just loves to walk because it has a lot to offer.
A great way to spend some time with friends or family.
