| It was a great tour and the tour guide was very good. The places chosen were all interesting and the food was great and just enough. I would love if you had additional neighborhood tours. Mother nature helped because it was a beautiful spring day in New York.

| The tour was not only really interesting - to hear the history of the places areas we were seeing - but also of course to try the various different foods. The guide was enthusiastic about the area, which is quite understandable once you've visited it! The tastings were all of foods that most people otherwise wouldn't choose to try, which was quite nice. After taking the tour we returned to Greenwich village at least once a day during the remainder of our stay in New York - if we hadn't taken the tour, we probably would never have visited it at all. Take this tour at the beginning of your stay in NY rather than the end as we did, as you will want to go back to the area. This tour is a must for all visitors to New York. |

| Our group enjoyed the walking and food tasting tour very much. Our guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We tasted very different ethnic foods we may have never tried. We stopped at small local eateries that were very good. We learned alot of tidbits and history about each neighborhood. |

| Really enjoyed the guide's (Barrie) enthusiasm and knowledge of not only the restaurants and food stores around the area but also of the culture and what it was like in years past. Great tour and tastings! |

| I would recommend this food tour. Not only does it give you sample tastes of some of the restaurants and food shops, but the guide gives information about many of the restaurants, entertainment venues, and history of the village. I would like to see more food tours of the Soho, Tribeca, and other neighborhoods of NYC! |

| As with the other tours this one was excellant. Barri did a great job giving us a true taste of ethnic NYC. The weather was cold but we barely felt it with all the activity. Lots of places I would definitely go back to. If you are looking to make improvements though I would find just a few more places to 'sit'. 2 hours into the tour I found myself searching for a second wind. (Of course I found it at the next tasting :) ). |
