Thoroughly enjoyed by all members of our family (ages ranged from 17 to 50 both male and female). Great, enthusiastic and knowledgeable hostess; lovely food to taste and with interesting historical facts about Greenwich Village. Would strongly recommend this tour.

Fantastic Experience - Great Value!

This is a fantastic tour and an incredible value. I expected to only have small samples at each stop, but the portions were surprisingly large - go hungry! We loved the variety of tastings and the walk through the neighborhood. Our guide not only provided great experiences with the samplings, but gave us a fantastic history of the neighborhood -- very informative. The format of this tour was great and I would highly recommend it.

Loved the Greenwich Village Food Tasting Tour! Our tour guide, Heather, was very acknowledgeable and enthusiastic. We enjoyed the history of the restaurants and the neighborhood. As a matter of fact, my husband and I are talking about going on another tour. I would definitely recommend this food and cultural tour to everyone.

Just Okay

This food tour of Greenwich Village was okay. I was surprised (and a bit disappointed) at the small amount of area we covered. We had many tastings (all delicious) but every restaurant was within a one block radius. Thankfully, there is a portion of the tour that takes you off the beaten path to delve into the history of the neighborhood. I would have liked more of that, but I understand this is a food tour and not a history tour. The only other thing I would have changed if I could was the size of our group. I think there were 16 or 17 of us and it felt too crowded at all but a couple places. A more intimate tour (say, 8-10 people) would have been better. Overall, this tour was just okay. I wouldn't go again, but I didn't hate the experience.

We loved this tour! It was a great way to spend a few hours over the Memorial Day Weekend. Bert, our guide, was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the area, locations we taste tested from, local gossip, food, cooking, literature, etc. He made a great tour even better.

The Greenwich Village Food tour was such a wonderful part of our trip to NYC. The food was excellent! The information, both informal and historical, was interesting and fun. Bert, our tour guide, was alot of fun and did a great job! I would do another food tour in a heartbeat!

The tour director, Marie, was very friendly, energetic and full of knowledge. It was a fun and tasty tour. We enjoyed the tour of the homes district as well and learning about the cultures of the area. The food samples were delicious and a good variety. Everyone we talked with was friendly and courteous. Thank you for doing such a great job.

It was really hot but that did not interfere with the tour. Loved every minute and would definitely do it again. I used to go to NYU and this tour brought back many good memories.
