| This was my third tour and it gets better every time. This time, we got to see some of the backrooms of the restaurants & clubs and that was very interesting. The tastings were memorable, the proprietors gracious, and the tour guide, Marie, was fantastic. Keep up the good work! See you again soon. |

| Great way to get to know the details and stories behind the neighborhoods. Interesting history, knowledge of little known facts, found great hidden restaurants and were away from the tipical tourist traps. Food tastings were OK. Overall a great experince. |

| This tour was just fantastic. The weather was just dreadful, rain and strong wind, and cold. But, that didn't deter our tour guide, Ed! He made efforts to keep us warm and dry whenever possible. The foods were fantastic, and you really will get a good full meal on this trip. Great mix of food culture, history, and information about the city. Ed's enthusiasm and pride for his city was evident and he made the tour. Knowledgeable, entertaining, and downright funny!
As others have said, take this tour early in your vacation so you can come back. I returned to the risotteria for a lovely lunch the next day. Enjoy! |

| Tour guide Ed was engaging, had an unusual depth of knowledge, a wonderful sense of humor, was sensitive to the needs of vendors and customers along the way, and was wonderfully accommodating to our group, which endured 3 hours of torrential rain to explore Greenwich Village [not one person bailed]. After the tour, my gang returned to several shops to purchase sampled delicacies. I felt like a pack mule, but I couldn't resist. Ed got us started on time, took us to some really neat places, and gave us a tidbits of history. All around fun--we'll do it again! |

| Great guide and diversified tour group - lots of art, architecture, village history, and
oh yes - great food! Recommend that future groups be told that they could easily have no breakfast or just juice and coffee - plenty to eat on this tour!
Very good value for NYC tourists - lots of discount coupons if you would be in the
area more than one day. |

| We have been to NYC 8 times in 10 years and have done most of the tourist things...this is a step beyond what most tourists experience. Our guide was knowledgeable and personable. We had a really good overview of the history and architecture of the area and tasted great foods from unique places. Can't wait to try one of the other tours. |

| Kirk was our tour guide and he was great. However, he only reviewed the restaurants in the tour brochure, and I am sure they paid a listing for this. We had a reservation at Po, and he would hardly discuss it.
The tour could have been about 30 minutes shorter, but other than that, a great tourl. |
