| This tour far exceeded my expectations. It was well worth the ticket price. The tour guide (sorry can't remember her name) was exceptional. She made it fun and informative. The food we samples was excellent. I've been to Greenwich Village several times before but this tour just gave it a whole new appeal. I would highly recommend (and have). |

| This was awesome. I wish we had done it earlier in our trip instead of the day before we left. This was one of my favorite things we did in NY! |

| The Greenwich Village Food Tasting and Cultural Tour is an excellent way to get an insight of New Yorkers' favourite restaurants. Our guide was a great presenter and she convinced us to try several of the restaurants mentioned in the leaflet she gave us. At Cornelia Street cafe we had a wonderful pan cake breakfast and just across the street we visited the restaurant Palma and tried their spicy fish soup and fried artichokes. Their Tiramisu was to die for! Next to Palma lies Little Havana where they serve magnificant Sangrias and the dinner we had at Commerce restaurant in Commerce street was definetely worth the 40 minutes wait: Whole Roasted Chicken For Two with foie gras bread stuffing & potato mousseline.
Our group of five Norwegians went back home, probably with a few pounds extra...but still it was worth it! |

| Our experience with our tour guide and group was amazing and one of the best things we chose to do in the Big Apple. Our guide was incredibly knowledgable, knew the neighborhood intimately and was treated as a neighbor by the locals throughout the tour. Her interest and passion for sharing the food, the culture, the architecture and history of the Greenwich Village area was surpassed only by the quality of the food tastings themselves. The only downside to this was that we were full from all of the tastings and couldn't go back to each and every restaurant or establishment featured and eat more! I give this activity a 10+ as did my not-so-tour-loving significant other. He is still talking about it (mostly in terms of "boy I wish I could eat xxxx again"). Excellent! |

| We had Cindy as our guide and spent a busy three hours eating and learning.
The hours flew by and she made it all so entertaining.
We learnt a lot about Greenwich Village and New York in general and returned to taste the pizza again,eat some cheese cake and buy some things to bring home.
Definitely would book for another tour next time we are back in New York.So Good |

| Better then what we thought, the guide was very knowledgable, friendly and the establishments visited were very curteous to our group and they were very willing to answer any questions. I would highly recommend this tour and plan on attending other tours. |

| Our tour group leader was fantastic - I think her name was Barrie. She knew her stuff and was very enthusiastic about making the tour a great experience for us.
The places we visited were very accommodating of us and the food samples were delicious.
I guess the nice surprise was the historical element of the tour, which I did not expect but really enjoyed.
Thanks! |
