| Our tour guide Suzie was extremely knowledgeable about the different food locations and tastings, as well as the Central Greenwich Village area. Her personal experience within the territory and with the food was evident.
My wife and I felt that the tour provided excellent value for the price. The volume of food was more than expected and Suzie's vignettes covering some of the sites (Minetta Lane, Washington Sq. Park, Cafe Wa) were very informative.
Absolutely no complaints. |

| Good variety of food. Great restaurants - we plan on going back to most of them. What was fantastic is hearing the owners/chefs of restaurant and speak and answering questions. More than enough food provided on the tour - but it was all wonderful. There were vegetarians in our group that were really well catered for - all places provided equal (or better!) alternatives - even at the butcher. It was great having the break in the middle with lots of walking. Wonderful history of the area - and the added movie and television references just added to the tour. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. The tour also oriented us in a very unfamiliar area. The bakery was a wonderful way to end the tour(probably the best stop!) - we remained behind for coffee. Highly recommended - a must if visiting New York. |

| Our tour guide Susan was very informative and knowlegable. The best stop was the first one and that was the Indian restaurant. I will definitely be back to Aamchi Pao. Do not eat anything before the tour because you get a lot of food. |

| Upon the recommendation of a friend, I booked the Greenwich Village/Soho tour for my husband and myself for our first day in New York. It's been 30 years since I visited New York, and we had just 3 days to feel the rhythm of the city. Our tour was terrifuc, owing to the knowledge and enthusiasm of our guide. (I believe his name is Rahim, a charming young man.) His knowledge of the neighborhoods, his appreciation of the history, and his love of the food made our visit to the area such a pleasure. Thank you for treating us tourists to such a pleasurable experience. |

| rahmin was our guide and he was excellent!
the food was all scrumptious and couldn't have been better
we felt the pit stops where we didn't eat could have been a little shorter as we ran a lttle late
the cuban restaurant was a little rushed as we ordered mojitos and had to gulp down (but was worth it)
i'm looking forward to taking your other tours, especially the sushi
unfortunately, the standing only tours may be too much for us |

| This tour was wonderful . I booked it with some hesitation because I was afraid I would not like ethnic type food. Was I wrong!!! The food was great and our tour guide, Susan, was terrific. She was very knowledgeable about the Village and Soho, and lots of fun to be with. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have some fun, learn, and especially EAT. |

| The food tour of Greenwich and Soho was a fulfilling experience. The tour guide sure knew her stuff. She laid out all of the local history and flavour of the neighbourhoods as well as having an in depth knowledge of how the food was prepared. The places chosen to eat were carefully selected to ensure a broad range of experience and the restaurants were generous in thier portions. No need to order lunch on this tour. This is a great way to sample some of the more interesting restaurants in NYC that we pass by and wonder what they would be like inside. We liked one so much we went back in the evening and had the best time at a restaurant that we have had in a long time. My 26 year old daugther went with us and felt the same way. They even included places that just do deserts, meats and cheeses, which were fascinating. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in food, history, people and life. You won't be disapointed. |

| The guide was friendly and informative. The food was absolutely delicious and we are from New Orleans where they have a lot good food. I would recommend this food tour to others. We also went on the West Village food tour two years ago. It was equally as good. |
