| We really enjoyed the tour and the interesting commentary around Greenwich and SoHo. The food we tasted was delicious and as an added bonus was not the usual food you would order to eat - it certainly broadened the range of foods we tried in New York. Our guide had a considerable knowledge of the area and its history and although some of the claims were a wee bit far fetched it added to the enjoyment of the tour. |

| Raheem led the group on a very interesting, informative, fun and stomach filling time on this tour of Central Village. It's amazing that there is so much to experience and enjoy in such a small area of Manhattan. In order to see everything the time is brief at many of the establishments but it gives a good excuse to return and explore and purchase newly discovered items on ones own. I only want to add one thing---Monte's cuisine is northern Italian---not southern which is no big deal since both are great. |

| Our walking food tour was fantastic! Rahim was a great guide and we learned sooooo much about the village area, it's history and those who live there. I would do it again and again. Wear good walking shoes! Well worth the cost! |

| My sister and I did the walking tour, great ethnic foods with generous samples. Nicely paced, great guide who was friendly and gave lots of history of the village. O bvious that she loved the area. We went back that evening to one of the restaurants to have dinner and again another day to take photographs and have lunch. We
both would highly recommend the tour. |

| My brother and I are from Australia and we took this tour which recomended by a friend.
Firstly the wealth of knowledge Diana possessed on the area along with the her easy goingand friendly nature, made for one of the best activities I did whilst on holidays in NYC. Diana continually provided relevant information, facts, figures, and wonderful direction.
It was nice that we joined a small group on the day. It was easy to keep pace with Diana. Diana never once showed impatience or lack of interest. The group was captivated and engrossed by her teaching. The food tastings presented to us were a fantastic choice. The cafe, restaurant or business visited were warm, friendly and inviting.
Overall I was very impressed with the tour. I would highly recommend it to others (as it was recommended to me).
Please thank Diana for a brilliant day.

| This is my second village tour w/ you. Both tours have been the highlights of my NYC trips. I have recommended this tour to my father and several others that will be traveling to the city. The next time I visit I plan to the last of the three tours! The food has always been great as were the food guides. We always end filling delightfully full and have many more ideas of places to eat on our own when we return for dinner! |

I'd do it again!

| The tour was not only informative, but fun! I can't wait to go back to the area to try some of the dining suggestions. My 15 year old daughter and 13 year old friend did NOT want to go on the tour but admitted later they would go on another one. They also liked the choice of samples! Raheem was full of information and suggestions, he also had a nice edge to his comments so it did not seem like a "guided" tour. After the tour we went back to 3 of the small stores for snacks and purchases to take home. I cannot think of a negative regarding the tour. |
