| A great way to see the area, try the food, learn some history, including some social history, of a great part of NYC. The tour guide was enthusiastic and energetic. |

| It was a beautiful day for a walking tour and with our very knowledgeable guide Barri and the tasty samples from the many restaurants the 3 hour tour ended way too soon. What a neat way to learn about different areas of NYC. |

| The tour was lots of fun and very informative. I learned a lot about the area which I never knew before. Our guide was knowledgeable and spent lots of time going over the architecture of the buildings as well as the mult-cultural aspects of the area. Our walk included stops at some local eateries but could have included more. We stopped at a few places that we were told about but were not able to sample the cuisine - disappointing! Our mouths were watering with the description of the food!! Washington Square was fun but I would have liked to have seen more of it. We only did a couple of blocks of SoHo and I didn't get the flavor or feel of the area like I did on the first part of the tour though Central Village. I had a great time and am looking forward to booking another of the other tours. Wear good supportive shoes and dress appropriately and you'll enjoy yourself immensely! |

| Good mix of food shops and establishments. Lots of background information on the development of the area both culturally and culinary provided by guide on each place visited. Saw how ethnic food has been adapted to NY style. The variety of food samples provided were of suitable strength to stimulate the palate and encourage you to visit on your own to experience the full range of flavours and dishes on offer.
Well worth doing and you get plenty of food so that another stop for lunch is not required. |

| We had a group of 11 females in our family visiting NYC for my mother's 80th birthday. We took the new Central Village/SoHo food and culture tour. Several of us had already been on your other two food and culture tours. Rahim was our tour guide and did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The food tastes were very delicious, and things we would never otherwise have tried. I would highly recommend all your food and culure tours. |

| I have taken your other tours many times, but this was a first for the Central Village and Soho tour. Lots of great foods to sample--many that I would have never tried on my own. Our guide was very knowledgable and kept all of us together quite efficiently. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who likes to explore the foods and history of this area. Thanks for the great list of restaurants and stores. Sometime I hope you develop a Soho-only tour in more depth. Returning Seattle-ite. |

| We would recommend this tour. Our only disappointment was that it concentrated in the Village and only briefly included SOHO - we would have liked to have seen and learned more of the SOHO neighborhood. Barri , our tour guide, was excellent and very informative. |

WOW!!

| This was the first time my husband and I had been to New York. I heard about the walking/eating tours from the Today Show and ordered tickets online. We loved it and would recommend it to everyone! We would never have known about Soho and Greenwich Village, and would have missed one of our most delightful days while in NYC. Our tour guide, Barri, was just great and shared so much history with us. The food was wonderful and was MORE than enough! On our last day in New York we took the subway back to Soho and ate supper at one of the restaurants on the tour, and dessert at another one! |
