| This food tour was, without a doubt the highlight of my trip to NYC. I have told everyone back home that if they ever get a chance to visit New York they MUST do this! My boyfriend and I fell in love with Greenwich Village on this tour. The food was amazing (every last bite, I swear), and our tour guide, Sephra, was absolutely hilarious and very knowledgeable of the area. We had a fantastic time learning about the history of "The Village," and other parts of NYC as well. We got quite a few recommendations that were not included on the tour, but we were able to try them all, and we LOVED them all just as much as the places included on the tour. I would not recommend going in the extreme heat or cold, just because there's a lot of being outside involved, however, I have nothing negative to say about the tour itself. This was an amazing experience, and I truly do "enthusiastically recommend" it! |

| I went to NYC with a group of ladies. It was our first time in the city as adults. We did lots of requisite tourist things, but by this tour was by far the most enjoyable. Being well-travelled professionals, we didn't want to see the "I Heart NY" side of the city. We wanted to get into the vibe of the city and feel why so many people speak about the magic of the city. This tour did just that. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and charming. The samples were delicious!
Highly reccommended! |

| We had a family of ten that went on this trip. We even had a senior citizen that had trouble walking. Our guide Cindy made sure that she had a chance to sit each time we stopped. CIndy was funny, sweet and very knowledgeable about the area. The food was amazing and I was stuffed when we were finished. I would recommend this tour to anyone who loves to eat good food. ut trip. We did not have to wait at any restaurant. It was a well planned and thought out. The entire trip was amazing and worth the money!!!!!!! |

| Our tour guide Heather was very knowledgeable and gave great detailed information on each location. She kept the tour upbeat in spite of the rainstorm we walked through for the entire 3 hours of the tour. The food was the star of the tour. We had eight locations that we sampled everything from pizza to choco chip cookies. Can't wait to get back to NYC to try one of the other tours. |

| My husband and I only had 2 days to spend in NYC. I picked this tour from About.com reviews. I absolutely loved it! Our guide, Cindy, was funny and super knowledgeable about the area. Every place we went, the owners/chefs opened their arms to her and our group. It's obvious to see how much she loves this neighborhood, and the locals love her back. It was a great way to see a part of the city that wasn't littered with a Starbucks or a Gap on every corner. And then there was the food! Every place seemed better than the last, and there was no way to pick a favorite!
We arrived 1/2 hour late for the tour. Our contact was actually on the street with our group, and GRACIOUSLY came to the meeting location and took us to meet our group. How awesome was that? I couldn't say thank you enough. Cindy told me they had sold our pizza slices (the first sample), but saved us a rice ball from Faicco's which were just sublime.
The next time we visit NYC, we will definitely use Zerve for another walking tour. Hands down, it was the best experience I could have asked for. I think this is event should be on everyone's "must do" list when they visit NYC. Looking forward to another visit! |

| It was my wife's second time on the tour but for three of us our first time. My wife enjoyed it more than the first time. I have lived in NYC area for ten years but never really understood the Greenwich Village area. This tour accomplished that and also introduced us to many wonderful restaurents and eating experiences we will come back to explore further. Thanks for a great afternoon. |
