| Whilst the food that we tasted on this tour was very good, I particularly enjoyed learning about the history and culture of the area as we walked its streets. We did the tour early in our time in New York and I feel that this understanding enriched our stay. Our guide was knowledgeable and approachable and the pace seemed to suit the group very well. There was a good variety of cuisine styles offered as we walked and although quantities were small to moderate at each venue, no-one in our group of friends needed dinner that night! |

| This was the second tour we took with Foods of NY, the first being the original Greenwich Village tour a few years ago. We enjoyed that one so much, we decided to go back for a "second helping," this time bringing an out-of-town guest. We all had a great time. Our guide, Susan, was friendly, informative and thoroughly professional. The tour runs like a Swiss watch, so precise that you have to stop and think about how much planning and organizing must go into it, to have each and every restaurant or shop prepared to greet and serve the group as soon as we arrive.
We are lifelong New Yorkers and my husband went to school at NYU, so we are no strangers to Greenwich Village, but New York is definitely a "work in progress" that can and should be visited with frequency. The food was varied, interesting, and of uniformly good quality. The Greenwich Village sights, from Washington Square Park to SoHo a real slice of New York. We even got to witness the finales of two different weddings - a little "extra" no one expected!
There are a lot of walking tours out there, but only one with FOOD; no contest! |

| Our tour was reccommended to us by friends who also took this tour. It surpassed our expectations. Our guide, Rajim was great. He was very knowledgeable about the food, and the history of the Village. Such a personalbe guide. The food choices were very tasty. Although it was a warm day, we enjoyed ourselves. We highly reccommend this tour. |

| I learned so much more than I would have on my own. The tour guide was fabulous, and the food we sampled was really the best of the best. |

| I've taken other food tours and loved them. I wasn't as impressed with this one. There was less food tasting on this tour and a lot more history and walking to places that were not food orientated. I did leave with a good understanding of the area. |

| This was our 4th Taste Tour with your company--and we continue to enjoy each one. Your guides are engaging, enthusiastic, and filled with ideas that will appeal to locals and tourists alike. My daughter & I follow up each tour with return visits to stores, restaurants, music venues, and the streets themselves which have greatly added to our enjoyment of our days in Manhattan. We returned to our "old" favorite neighborhoods (which we learned about on previous tours taken last fall) during our recent spring visit. We ended this trip with Susan & your SoHo tour & look forward to our next visit--to return to some of the wonderful places we visited with her. We highly recommend your tours to our friends, neighbors, and even fellow hotel guests! |

| I found the tour guide knowledgeable, the itinerary well planned, the mixture of good food and cultural history "just right," and the overall experience one that I have (and "will") recommend to others. I say that I "have" because I am am repeat customer who previously enjoyed your other Village tour. I look forward to joining your other tours when I am in the city. |

| Our tour guide, Raheem, was a fountain in information. He knew about not only the food but the history of the area. That was an added delight and very informative. Also, everything we tried was delish! |
