| 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. |

| My friend and I visit the city several times a year, always seeing a show and shopping. This time we decided to do something different and we were wonderfully surprised at how much we enjoyed our walking tour of the Village and Soho. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and made the tour a lot of fun. We can't wait to do the other walking tours on our future visits to NYC. |

Very Good

| The tour and guide where great, the food was ok I would say that you need more places you go in and sit down, standing out side on the street was not what I expected. Also of of the food was very small, good but not much. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and wholeheartedly recommend it to one and all. It has only been two days since our tour and I have already spoken to many friends and co-workers about it and am looking forward to a future tour.
Our host was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about New York, its history and many wonderful foods available during the tour. He was the perfect person for the job, very attentive to his group.
The amount of food was OK ... but I was still hungry at the end. We immediately went back to several of the eateries in our tour package. (The Pumpkin Raviolis with Genovese sauce with walnuts is out of this world!)
Definitely worth the price! |

| Our tour guide was perfect, we met up with six crazy family members in New York, this was the best place to start our week of enjoying family, we share your tour with everyone. I am looking forward to doing the China Town & Seafood Tour soon, with our same guide.... or we no can do, he was just simply a great inspiration to us all. |

| I found the Central Village/Soho Tour informative and very enjoyable. While tasting the samples of food at numerous stops was pleasurable, I enjoyed even more learning the background of the restaurants and their role in the community. Our guide (Ramin--not sure of spelling) did an excellent job of escorting a group of about 15 through the area while minimizing the activity disruption of local residents. The handout guide to the area was also helpful for future restaurant suggestions. I would hightly recommend the tour. |

| the guide was terrific - quite knowledgeable - and the food was wonderful. we even went back for dinner at one of the eateries; it was so good we had to have more. just wish there were more opportunities to sit down while eating, and wish the guide didn't think every place was "the best" - that seemed more like a marketing tool than a real opinion. but i recommend it highly and will go on other tours when i return to nyc. |
