| Went on this tour with my mother when we spent a weekend in New York City recently. It was fantastic, the tour guide was awesome and really knowledgeable. There was no way we would have found out about all of the places they showed us if we had not gone on the tour. Would highly recommend, cannot wait to go back and go on another tour! |

| The variety of tastes was excellent, and the order starting from appetizers to entree to desert was well-done. The guide's narrative about the Central Village was informative. I wish that when we were in the shops/restaurants where an owner or manager was present that the guide would let the owner/manager speak more. The guide gave a "commercial" for the establishment, which is OK, but I would have preferred to have heard directly from the owner/manager. This especially applies to Bellavitae. All in all it was a sucess and we will be back for more. |

| We had an amazing time. We truly wished the skies hadn't opened up and poured, because we know had wonderful Washington Square would've been in the sunshine, but the tastings were delicious, and Barri was so knowledgable! |

| It was like having a foodie cousin in NY to show you to the places only locals know. We would do it again in a heart beat and we can't wait to try the other tours. Our favorite stop was Monty's, which I noticed is closed on Tuesdays, so take note to not do the tour on Tuesdays. Thanks for the great tour! |

| This one was just as enjoyable as the others, with an extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide. I love the history of the neighborhoods, more than the tastings actually, and would (have) recommended these tours to locals as well as tourists. More than well worth the time and price!!! |

Perfect!

| This was my first trip to New York and only had 3 weeks to plan for it. I debated for quite a while on wether to take one of the food tours and which one would be best for me. I thought none stood out as a sure pick for me personally but the variety of food offered on this tour was what interested me the most. I went on one of the last days of my 7 day trip to New York. For the majority of the time there my husband was working and I was seeing the sights. I wished now I had taken this tour at the beginning of my trip so I could have gone back with him more than just one night. I also would have signed up for at least one more tour if I had known beforehand how much I would enjoy it. Then I could have shown HIM around for once.
Our guide, Rahim was AMAZING. I could not believe the knowledge he possessed. He was versed in literature, music, culture, history, and of course culinary arts. I was astounded by how much he knew and shared with us. So many tours are either not informational enough or seem a bit canned. He was relaxed and personal with all of us. I was also a bit nervous about going by myself on the tour realizing that most people would be groups or couples and I wasn't sure of the age of most tourists. I was pleased to have a broad range of ages participating. I also met two sisters who were visiting the city together and we enjoyed one another's company during the tour.
I loved the tour and can't wait to go back and see the others! |

| My 19 year old daughter and I chose this as our last hurrah of the summer. We both enjoyed it immensely. The tour covered a very diverse selection of food venues-restaurants, butcher, bakery, diff cultures etc. We will definitely go back to the restaurants for a full sit down meal soon. The guide was excellent; she relayed lots of interesting facts of history, culture and food . It is a great way to learn about a very interesting part of the city. Two thumbs up! |
