| I have recently attended the Central Village and Soho Food Tour. I had already attended the original Greenwich Village tour two years previous and thought that was well done.
The Greenwich Village/ Soho Food Tour is even BETTER.. We sampled a larger spectrum of diverse foods which included a spicy vegetarian Indian wrap , an Italian pasta bolognese (they make their own pasta even), empanadas and yucca ( similar to a potato)at a Cuban restaurant which is the best I have ever had, Italian pepper sausage from an Italian butcher ( I went back and actually bought some to take home), a tasty zuchinni parmesian pizza (fantastic crust), and a poached pear /hazelnut chocolate dessert tart( the grand finale well worth waiting for).
Our guide, Susan, was very knowledgeable providing us with a bit of history and fun facts about the area.
It was a great opportunity to experience foods that I would never have thought of trying. I would definitely take this tour again the next time I go back to New York. |

| It will take at least 3 more visits to NYC to dine at all of the great places we were introduced to on the Central Village/SoHo Food Tour. Raheem, our tour guide, truly loves his job and his enthusiasm is contagious! The food we sampled came in generous portions - so much so that we were too full to eat more near the end of the tour. The ricotta cheesecake at Bellavitae was my favorite. Our group was lucky enough to score reservations there that evening and enjoyed a wonderful meal and loved seeing Cafe Corner full of life at night.
Can't wait to try your Chinatown tour! |

| Our Tour Guide Raheem was awesome . Very knowledgeable, interesting to listen to and made us forget that we were walking around in 90+ degree weather. Saw lots of fun places, met nice people and really enjoyed the hands on mozzarella demonstration. Frank rocks! |

| I am from Long Island, but moved away at the age of 18. Really enjoyed this tour, as I saw more of the city that afternoon than in all the years I lived on L.I. Dianna was our tour guide, and she was fabulous! Informative,fun and friendly! The food was excellent- I would return to all the restaurants that we visited! I took my daughter on this tour, but I have lots of friends who want to go on the tour, also! I look foward to the next NYC adventure!
It was a gorgeous day, also, so we walked around the city and saw South St. Seaport, World Trdae Center site, Little Italy,Chinatown and Times Square! Wonderful experience! |

| We really enjoyed the information and especially the food. We may know more about the area than the people who live there. would recommend this tour and the guide(Dianna) to anyone who might be considering a tour. |

| Living in Las Vegas and going to New York for the first time. I looked up things to do when I got there. Found your web site and decided to book your tour. So glad I did.
It was wonderful. Our guide was outstanding, and so informatiive. The food, of course was fabulous! It was truly, the highlight of my trip. For any one who loves history and great food. This is definately the tour to take. Only wish I lived closer so I could take advantage of all the other tours. |

| This was a great tour. I 've been on three tours now and loved this one the best. Very informative and the tour guide, Rasheem, made it very interesting. The food was incredible and plentiful. We walked away pleasantly stuffed. This is a great tour for everyone-local or tourist. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed this tour! We were on the tour with our grown son and his wife and the tour was one of the highlights of our weekend in New York. Diana was our tour guide and she was a delight. She was full of good humor and loads of information. She really knows her stuff about Greenwich Village. The food that we sampled was both varied and delicious - from ricotta cheese cake to homemade sausage and fresh mozarella cheese. The tour was done at a comfortable pace and we became acquainted with many restaurants that we would never have known about. |

| I had the most wonderful experience on the food tour. Not only did I taste so many different types of food that I would have never thought of, I learned so much about Central Village/SoHo area. The foods were filling and amazing!! Definitely recommend anyone and everyone to go. We're going to do the rest of the neighborhoods. |
