| My department of 12 people participated in the Greenwich Village tour and it was a great experience!! Everyone came away with positive feedback and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Not only did we sample some delicious food, but we also had the opportunity of learning some very interesting facts about the area. Living in NJ and being so close to the city, I come into Manhattan quite often. However, I was unaware of most of the history and facts of the Village. My group commented how they will be visiting the village more often because of this tour. I myself will be a patron of many of the restaurants that we sampled and look forward to trying others. Our guide Dave was informative, funny and did a great job in keeping the tour moving at a leisurely pace. Kudos to Dave.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone regardless if you are local to the area or coming from out of town. It's just plain fun!!! |

| I really recommend this tour. It's a great way of seeing and experiencing a neighbourhood. A helpful and informative guide makes the tour go all too quickly. Can't wait to go back to NY and spend more time in Greenwich Village!! |

| My husband and I booked this on recommendation of a friend. We loved finding out about the history of the area as well as the food tastings on the way. Plenty to eat, and we would definitely go back and do another food tour when we visit NY again. |

| I would highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide (Sephra) was very informative not only on the restaurants with tastings, but also sights, restaurants, and culture around the Greenwich Village area. |

Take the tour only if you enjoy food tasting

| Overall, I had a good time on the Greenwich Village Food Tasting and Cultural Tour and the tour guide was very comical. I really enjoyed tasting the various foods on the tour (some food tasting stops were better than others though) and the tour did a great job of accomodating a vegetarian diet. If you enjoy food tasting and plan on revisiting the Greenwich Village area during your trip, then this is a really good tour to take because the tour guide gives you restaurant recommendations.
However, if you are taking the tour to learn about the culture/history of Greenwich Village, then I would recommend taking another tour because I didn't learn very much about the area. Although this is a 3 hour tour, a lot of the time is spent waiting for the tour guide to go into the restaurant and bring out the food to the group. Also, I was hoping to explore more of the Greenwich Village area, but you basically stay on the same street during the tour.
I think this tour is overpriced for what it is. |

| I took my first Zerve food/culture walking tour in Chicago & was SO impressed by the tour guide's knowledge, enthusiasm & friendliness. I assumed she was "special" & the guide in NYC likely wouldn't be as good. Wrong. I'm still trying to figure out how Zerve identifies & retains such passionate, yet organized people. The information is presented in such a memorable way that I still remember it, the exoerience is designed to make everyone feel welcome/included & the food is great! |
