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.

This was my second time going on this particular tour, and though some prior favorites weren't on the tour due to the location being far and the weather too cold, the winter replacements were certainliy as astonishing if not moreso! The tourguides are incredibly knowledgeable and know the people of the village and those feeding us the wonderful food. It's an experience not to be missed if you are not from around here as well as those who live right next door!

Rahim was our tour guide and he loves the Central Village! We learned alot about this area, and sampled some delicious food and discovered a few restaurants and shops that we never would have found on our own. Our group was small and initmate so it was very fun. We highly recommend this tour.

A great overview of a great area

This was my third tour with this company and it was the best to date. The guide was enthusiastic, entertaining and knowledgable about the area. The tour highlighted several restaurants and activities beyond the food stops provided. We returned to the area the day after the tour and experienced some of the recommended spots, each stop surpassing the high praise provided by the tour.

Loved the experience

We enjoyed a small tour of 6 people on a freezing Dec day. The guide was friendly & informative and we visited two of the sites on our own over the following days. We had dinner at the Ethiopian restaurant & a falafel for lunch from MacDougall St. We had previously walked by these venues without realising how good they were. We would highly recommend the tour.

Good food in a variety of places, although it would have been nice to actually eat something in more of the places we visited. Our tour guide was nice and knowledgeable, but at some points I wanted the tour to be geared more towards locals than tourists.

Great afternoon, spoilt only by the biting cold. Rahim was an articulate and charismatic guide who displayed in depth knowledge on both the food and the areas we passed through.

GREAT FOOD SAMPLING

EVEN THOUGH I AM A NEW YORKER, I ENJOYED THE DIVERSITY OF THE FOOD SAMPLING. THE HISTORY THAT WAS ALSO SHARED ABOUT EACH PLACE WAS GREAT. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DAY TOUR.
