| Although the weather was below freezing January 31, Susan the guide kept us warm moving through the Village, tasting some great food and getting a history lesson of this vibrant area. I loved the information on architecture and what had happened at various spots. Susan kept the commentary moving, the info nuggets fascinating and the food spaced right. I only wish this 3 hour tour, that became three and a half hours, could have lasted LONGER.
The food and drink at Cuba were excellent and the soup at Montes' divine.
Be sure you don't plan anything right afterwards, because you don't want to rush this and you'll probably want to stay in the area to pick up something to eat later, to browse the shops or plan your evening in one of the many clubs pointed out during the walk. Fabulous - can't recommend it enough. I'll come back to do this one again, as well as try others. Thanks! |

| We had a great tour with a wonderful guide ( rahim).
He was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. There was enough indoor time to warm up given it was 18 degrees. All in all a great time |

Very Interesting tour. The food is excellent

| Very good tour. We learned a lot of history of the Central Village and SoHo. We also sampled 7 restaurants and looked at a number of others. The guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. The one negative was the time of year and the weather that day - cold and snowy, Sat., 1/10. I was very uncomfortably cold and a good deal of the talk was outside and standing still. The guide was not very cognizant of the fact that we were all quite cold and continued to talk at length outside. Maybe that could be avoided in the future. But other than the fact that I should have waited until April to do the tour, it was very worthwhile and a great value. Thanks. |

| We enjoyed a small tour of 6 people on a freezing Dec day. The guide was friendly & informative and we visited two of the sites on our own over the following days. We had dinner at the Ethiopian restaurant & a falafel for lunch from MacDougall St. We had previously walked by these venues without realising how good they were. We would highly recommend the tour.

| Our guide, Raheem (sp?) was articulate, knowledgeable and passionate about the foods, business owners, and stories behind the sites we visited. Very interesting, and generous sampling of a number of foods. Ample opportunites to sit, and visit rest rooms; very comfortable 3 hours. Would recommend this to anyone! |

| EVEN THOUGH I AM A NEW YORKER, I ENJOYED THE DIVERSITY OF THE FOOD SAMPLING. THE HISTORY THAT WAS ALSO SHARED ABOUT EACH PLACE WAS GREAT. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DAY TOUR. |
