| Last Saturday, my husband and I went on the eating and historic Greenwich Village tour. Our guide, Marie, was excellent, she had lived there so knew things other than what is in books about the neighborhood.
The food was wonderful and the history was entertaining.
The walking part is a good outing, not too strenuous but you did feel less guilty about eating all of the great food. We stayed in the 'Village' and enjoyed a glass of wine after the tour. We will definitely come back to shop and dine at places she pointed out and places we visited.
Loved meeting the people on the tour, thankfully, it was a small group, less that 14, so we all got to know each other. A very diverse group. |

| this tour was a great way to quickly get a grasp of this fascinating neighborhood. I never would have known where to go, nor been able to taste such a wide variety of different foods on my own. i especially appreciated the historical and cultural insights shared by the tour guide. On future trips to New York, i am more confident to further explore this neighborhood on my own. |

| I had taken the tour a few years ago, but my daughter just moved there and I wanted her to learn more about the area. We both had a great time, Some of the places were different than before but it is awesome how long some of these establishmentrs have been around. We felt privileged to know where the locals go! I have also done the Meatpacking tour.. Both are very enlightening and a great view into an area missed by so many tourists. |

| The tour was a good mix of great food, history, architecture, and things I'd have missed if I was just walking through the area. Well-organized and paced, personable and knowledgeable guide, a variety of food spaced throughout the 3 hours. We had a 9 and 17 yo with us. I would definitely recommend the tour to friends visiting NYC and hope to try the food tours of other areas on future visits, as well as return to dine at some of the places on this tour. |

| Food portion of the tour was good; I would have liked more inclusion of more food-related stops and less lengthy lecture on the surrounding buildings, ironwork, artists, politicians, the Bronx, etc. |

| In spite of the constant downpour on our tour, this was the highlight of my NY trip! Cindy,our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the area. It was refreshing to have a guide who is a local and really knows the history and culture of an area. Besides that, she was just plain fun! In addition to all the great food, she gave us a real personal tour and is very passionate about the Village and local shops and eateries.I will definitely take another tour with your company. |

| I had a great time on my food tour of Greenwich Village! My guide had so much enthusiasm and connected well with the entire group. She had our best interests at heart and was so kind to provide us with extra "heavy duty" napkins! I loved learning about the different restaurants and finding out where I need to eat next. |

| Lots of good food, infomative and educational as well as lots of plain old enjoyment. I totally recommend this tour to anyone. Our guide, Amy, was lovely and sweet and quite knowledgeable about anything we asked her. |
