| I would highly recommend this walking tour. The support information from your website was excellent. Even though you recommended that the meeting place was not in walking distance from our hotel on 46th Street, we actually walked it in little over an hour down 6th Avenue (I'm 58, my husband 61), and still able to do the 3 hour+ tour. Our guide Laurie was great. She spoke loud and clear, explained everything to our satisfaction. We learned so much, loved her description of Italian and ethic foods. And the food samples were plentiful! Who can forget the delicious almond croissant at Bruno's...the candy samples at Lilac...oh, Joe's authentic New York style pizza (we had eaten at a pizzeria recommended on the FNC, but it could not compare to Joe's)...Murray's cheeses and olives...Yatagan's lamb/beef pita sandwich and the falavel...Everything we sampled was great. And we loved all the descriptions of the area around Gweenwich. As a followup of our tour, we returned to Greenwich Village before we left New York so that we could buy boxes of candies from Lilac and coffee from Porto Rico Imports for our families and friends back in Hawaii. Thank you for the wonderful experience we had with the tour. I will recommend it to anyone wanting a memorable NYC adventure. |

| This tour was one of the best events we've experienced in our five trips to NYC. The tour guide, Rorey, was friendly, well-informed, and fun. We didn't hurry through the tour, so we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. We would definitely recommend this tour to others. |

| This tour was excellent! Our guide (Zora?) was very well informed, interesting, funny, and took very good care of the group. The tour was recommended to me by a "real" New Yorker and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the history of Greenwich Village and FOOD! |

| We would recommend to anyone interested in the area. The places we stopped welcomed us, their tastes they gave us were wonderful! Many places are historic, our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable The 3 hours went by too fast. I'm a horrible speller, sorry. |

| Our guide was pleasant and well informed. Her relaxed, sincere demeanor was much appreciated by "us Southern Girls". There was a nice variety of food choices and stops. Just wondered how far we were from Washington Square??? I've always thought it was an important part of the Village. This is our 6th visit to NYC but our first time to explore Greenwich Village. ( We are mainly Broadway Show fans) This was a great first experience and we will certainly recommend it. |

| We enjoyed every part of our tour. Our guide was very informative and easy to follow. The food was great. We will try the meat packing tour on our next visit.
I have recommended this tour to several people.

| It's a really nice time! I had gone on the same tour last summer and recommended it to a friend. She and I decided to go together and we had a great time! It's a wonderful way to see the Village, learn more about the history and culture of the area, and the food is terrific! Our guide Rebecca was great and had a lot of interesting things to tell. She has a very pleasant personality and does a great job. I've done the tour twice now and would do it again. It's definitely worth it. |

| We had a ball - our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable and really appeared to enjoy what she was doing. The food was excellent, the walking and talking was fun. Learned alot about the village. We even visited one of the restaurants after the tour for refreshments.
Our group enjoyed it so much that we plan to stay in Greenwich Village next year rather than in a hotel in the Theatre District so we can eat at some of the restaurants we got to sample.
We understand additional tours are available and one will be included in our plans for next year.
Thanks |
