| We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with an enthusiastic guide (Diana) who was full of information about restaurants, clubs, architecture and some history. The weather was rainy and cool, but it didn't matter as our visits to restaurants were great. We ended up re-visiting two restaurants and two clubs because of the tour. |

| I can't say enough good things about this tour. Our guide was very personable and very knowledgeable and he shared a lot of the history of the area with us along the way. There was a great variety of different types of food to sample, from Indian, to Cuban, to Italian, to pastries, to cheese and sausage, to (my personal favorite) genuine New York cheesecake. This is a great way to learn some of the history of New York, as well as a great way to discover some additional restaurants that you might want to try on your own in addition to the restaurants on the tour and it's a great way to get to try things that you might never have tried otherwise. Plus, you get to see a lot of interesting sites along the way. I can't wait to go back to New York again next year and take another one of these tours. I highly recommend this! It's well worth the money and the time. |

| Our tour guide Suzie was extremely knowledgeable about the different food locations and tastings, as well as the Central Greenwich Village area. Her personal experience within the territory and with the food was evident.
My wife and I felt that the tour provided excellent value for the price. The volume of food was more than expected and Suzie's vignettes covering some of the sites (Minetta Lane, Washington Sq. Park, Cafe Wa) were very informative.
Absolutely no complaints. |

| The food tour of Greenwich and Soho was a fulfilling experience. The tour guide sure knew her stuff. She laid out all of the local history and flavour of the neighbourhoods as well as having an in depth knowledge of how the food was prepared. The places chosen to eat were carefully selected to ensure a broad range of experience and the restaurants were generous in thier portions. No need to order lunch on this tour. This is a great way to sample some of the more interesting restaurants in NYC that we pass by and wonder what they would be like inside. We liked one so much we went back in the evening and had the best time at a restaurant that we have had in a long time. My 26 year old daugther went with us and felt the same way. They even included places that just do deserts, meats and cheeses, which were fascinating. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in food, history, people and life. You won't be disapointed. |

| For first-time travelers to New York, we knew we would make our rounds through Times Square, the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, the like... but we wanted to make sure that we visited one of New York's many historic towns - and by visit, I don't mean "sit on top of a double-decker and drive through." I mean pounding feet-to-pavement and immersing ourselves in it. We wanted to visit places that only locals and enthusiasts know about; we wanted to taste food that wasn't following the trend of the month, but rather has been made the same way for generations; we wanted to touch the very stage where musical icons of our generation (and those prior) got their start. And we did all that and more on this tour! A-mazing!!!
Our guide's knowledge of the area was spectacular! She, herself, is a product of Central Village - it doesn't get more real than that!
And the food selection - oh, the food selection - was outstanding! I won't ruin it for any potential participants in the tour who may be reading this, so I won't speak specifically to the dishes that we tried. I will only say that you WILL NOT be disappointed! There were many "best ever" eating moments on this tour, ex. "that was the best [insert dish here] that I've ever had in my life."
We visited New York from Hawaii, a place that's very rich in cultural diversity and culinary influence as well. And we really appreciate the experience that this tour offered. When we look back on our first ever trip to New York, this will be one of it's highlights! |
