Central Village/SoHo Food & Culture Tour

activity photo

Sample tasty treats from ethnic, old-school eateries in two distinct areas - one colorful and exciting, the other surprisingly quaint.

I can't stop talking about it

We were part of your E.Village and Soho tour last Saturday. I have not stopped talking about what a great time the 5 of us had. The exuberance of our tour guide-the facts we learned- the food we tasted were all enjoyable. Even the weather cooperated! You can't ask for more for your money-We look forward to trying another one soon!

Our guide was amazing. You could tell that he honestly enjoyed what he was doing and also enjoyed the places that he toured with us. We actually returned for dinner at one of the restaurants (Monte's) and stopped by a club (Cafe Wha?) for drinks and entertainment. I would highly reccommend this tour.

when in NYC would take an another tour

we were a group of 3 college friends meeting in NYC from 3 different states. all women, all 49. this was an outstanding activity! we left thinking we were undercharged :) Raheem could not have done a better job. Very knowledgeable about the area also very enthusiastic about the area. you can tell he loves his job. if we meet in NYC again, would without a doubt pick another tour to take. if this was available in another city, i would purchase tickets. Raheem also tried to keep us out of the way of the locals so we did not get in their way (as best as he could) and did this in a pleasant way. we did still however seem to anger a few locals who made snide comments to the group. really don't think anything could be done to avoid this.

Food that needs to be experienced

We had only been in the city for a couple of days, we new that New York was known for some fantastic eateries and we wanted to experience them. We checked a number of reviews on the Trip Advisor, Zerve had excellent reviews. After much deliberation we decided on the Central Village / SoHo food tour, it was everything we expected and more. Not only were we informed of great food and get to taste the local produce, we were also informed of the history of the local area. The following day we ventured back to Central Village area and had dinner at the Italian Restaurant on the tour, because the food sampled was so good. This is an amazing food tour and would recommend international and domestic visitors who love food to seriously consider the Central Village / SoHo tour. Thanks for an amazing time. Caroline & Greg

Fantastic experience of real NY life

Our guide, Raheem, was so enthusiastic about the area, and told us some really interesting/funny/quirky things about the area you would never have got from a guide book. I loved seeing this side of life in NY city. The food was also great, fab choice of different cultures and ethnicities all mixed into one area made for a really great tour. The venues were all hospitable too, even though they must have the same tour every day. Great value for all that food! I have told all of my friends about this tour, and our guide, since returning home to London. We are even looking at similar tours in London as we dont know as much about the areas here as we now do about soho and the village! I would heartily recommend this tour to anyone going to NYC and will look out for similar tours when I visit other cities as it has opened my eyes to the possibilities of food/info/laughs all rolled into one! This was one of the higlights of our trip, even though we were walking in a foot of snow! The frostbite on my toes didnt put us off. Amazing! Go on this tour, you will not regret it. Tansy

We had a group of 4, we were always able to sit together. We enjoyed our guide, he was very interested in all of us, where we came from. He had a wonderful sense of humor and definetly knew his history. I loved the food, it was amazingly delicious and I loved all of the restaurants. I can't wait to join another tour. I have told many of my friends and I know that they will come. I also thought the price was wonderful. Thank you for such a great time. Grateful for the day, guide, food and all Pip Fritzsche
