Who doesn't like to eat?

Loved the tour. Bought at the stores after the tour with the discount they provided tour members so our NY hosts could also enjoy the wonderful food. Now we are continuing to order via the internet with our discount so we can share the great food with our California neighbors. Who doesn't like to eat? We are already planning to take some of the other tours on future trips to NY. Keep up the good work.

Our Tour Guide, Marie was EXCELLENT...very informative and attentative and the tour was SO organized and So fulfilling in every way. It went way beyond our expectations(we were expecting tastings and we had a complete meal) and we have already told SO many friends and family that they just have to do the Tour.

An Enjoyable Experience

We thoroughly enjoyed our Greenwich Village tour. It was interesting, educational, and most of all - FUN! The guide was very pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. The food tastings were awesome. It was an experience just breathing in the atmosphere of the village. We hope to go back to Greenwich Village again and re-visit some of the places on the tour.

It was an excellent tour of a variety of foods offered in just a couple of blocks in Greenwich Village. A little heavy at times but very enjoyable.

we met Curt at Rocco's and spent the next few hours eating and laughing...he had a great speil and knew his stuff. All the info was presented in an informative and fun filled manner. Everyone felt we got our money's worth. The little red-headed Canadian was a barrel of laughs and we couldn't have had a better time...the food was delish and just the right amount Leslie & Carol from Toronto Canada P.S. from Leslie...this was my second Greenwich Food Tour and I wanted my friend to have the same experience. it was even more fun for me the second time around...all thanks to Curt

Great idea, but not well executed
Mon, Apr 14, 08   11:00 AM korsgaard Female 60-69 Combination Family Without Children
We enjoyed the historical and architectural aspects of the tour, but the food tastings were poorly planned and in some cases poorly chosen. Murray's Cheese, O and Co., and the cannoli were great and more what we expected throughout. But the bad Thai food and dreadful chocolates in a so-so gift shop should be eliminated. The tastings would be better organized in the form of a meal with antipasti at the beginning, main courses, cheese, and finally one dessert at the end. Why three or four sweets between savory tastings? Why two pizzas? I would cut back on the number of tastings and pump up the quality and the organization.

THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY SHORT TRIP TO NYC

BOWRY WAS AN INCREDIBLE TOUR GUIDE, SHE KNOWS HER STUFF . I RECOMMEND THIS TOUR TO ANYONE VISITING NYC.JOE'S PIZZA WAS YUMMY. WE WENT BACK TO THE OLIVE OIL SHOP AND HAD SOME SHIPPED HOME, I ALSO BOUGH T SOME CHEESE FROM MURRAY'S. BUT THE BEST PART OF THE TOUR WAS ALL THE HISTORICAL PLACES THAT SHE TOOK US TO SEE. WE HAD A VERY GOOD TIME.
