| This was one of our favorite parts of our most recent trip to NYC! Loved the food tastings paired with the rich history of the area and the people who have lived there. Our guide's passion for food was clear and we delighted in the stories which accompanied each location we visited! |

| Not knowing what to expect, we had a wonderful time. Enjoyed the uniques eateries, history and architecture. Most of the places we visited were places we surely would not have visited on our own. In future visits we will now seek them out. We took the tour on the last day of our week-long vacation and if we had it to do over, we would have scheduled it earlier in the week. That way we would have had time to go back on other days and explore/experience more of the community and the food on own own. |

| We really enjoyed learning about history of the area, the food, and cultural experience. Our guide was very knowledgable about the area and even shared personal stories about how certain things impacted her. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone but be prepared to walk for most of the 3 hours (Don't go shopping in Chinatown before hand). |

Very nice and informative. I would recommend.

| I enjoyed this tour, but there really was a large portion of the tour dedicated to providing historical details of the area. |

| I live in Manhattan, but my focus is work. I very seldom take time to explore and indulge in all the fantastic things the city has to offer (A crime! I know!) I welcomed the opportunity to play tourist when my aunt came for a visit. The Central Village/SoHo Food and Culture Tour was absolutely the highlight of the weekend. Our guide was enthusiastic and entertaining. My guest and I both learned a thing or two (or 20) about NY history, architecture, culture, and of course, it's fabulous cuisine. I have a brand new list of favorite places to eat, and several places I'm looking forward to enjoying in greater depth in the future. The tastings were nicely paced, and we finished the tour satiated and inspired. |

| I enjoyed the tour but it really dragged out at times. There were 8 food places, half of them very quick in succession for the last 15 minutes. That meant that for 2.5 hours, only 4 foods were tasted. That's a lot of talking to listen to . This will probably be my last tour. I've done the chelsea market and the greenich village tour also. The greenich village tour is by far the best. |

| This was a very enjoyable tour - nice pace - great food and an extremely friendly and knowlegeable guide. A true native of the village, Diane's love for the neighborhoods and the people is quite apparent and infectious. I would (and already have) reccommend this tour to family & friends. |
